    ... her.

“Thanks, I got it from this cute boutique in town,” she joked. “Beth, so good to see you,” she said.

“You too, it’s been too long,” Beth answered. She was a gorgeous woman who was actually the younger sister of a girl who had been in her grade in school. They had been fast friends after being introduced by Susan. Beth was the only one in their small group who wasn’t married, which seemed crazy because she was stunning. She had large doe eyes, light brown hair that she wore short, just above her shoulders, and a light-tanned complexion that she somehow seemed to keep even in the winter months.

Alice embraced her and squeezed tightly. She hadn’t grown up in their town but had moved here with her husband after finishing his college degree. Alice was funny in a lot of ways. She was petite with blonde hair and sharp features, but she was intensely competitive and often rubbed people the wrong way in the small town. Until she found their group, she hadn’t really fit in here.

The waiter brought her water while they caught up and looked at the menu.

“So, how’s everything going with Michael?” Alice asked Beth. Michael was her most recent boyfriend. Her high standards had kept her from getting married young, and now the dating pool around town at her age was pretty limited. She had been dating Michael for about three months, though they had barely seen them together.

She didn’t think he was good enough for Beth, but he wasn’t the worst guy she had dated. He ...
    ... worked as a plumber and made a decent living. He gave her a weird vibe, but that might just be because she knew that he and Jeff had some tension in the past when he had worked for the hardware store.

“It’s great,” Beth answered. “What about you and Dave?”

“Don’t change the subject!” Alice called her on trying to avoid giving any details.

“What is there to say?” Beth said casually.

“How are things with you? Really,” Alice asked. She had always been the most direct of the four of them, and while she wasn’t the glue of the group the way that Susan was, she kept things real.

Beth seemed uncomfortable. “I don’t know,” she said. “Things with us are… good, but he’s not really the type that wants to settle down.”

“If the man doesn’t want to settle down with you, then he’s out of his mind,” Susan answered as she drank a sip of her water.

Annie had to agree with that. Beth was super cute and a huge catch.

“Not wanting to settle down means commitment issues, or he’s dating other people,” Alice said pointedly.

Beth blushed at how direct Alice was on the subject.

Annie tried to soften the remarks some. “She just means to say that we all like Michael, but that is a bit concerning,” she said as kindly as she could.

“It’s been a bit tough at times. Michael is a lot more particular about a lot of things than other guys I’ve dated,” she admitted.

“What is that supposed to mean?” Alice asked.

Beth paused, “Like with what I wear out and stuff.”
