Weird, weird, weird.
One of my old friends (that I dated off an on for years--but it was always mostly a friendship, as we knew it was never really meant to be more, KWIM?) just IMed me. We haven't talked since about 6 months before DH and I got married. Basic convo:
Him: How are you? How's the baby? Hi, by the way.
Me: Hey! Baby is good--she's napping right now. She's 22 months, can you believe it? How are you? How's life?
Him: 22 months? WOW! I'm good--work is busy,,.and I have a little one of my own on the way.
As I'm typing a response, he says he has to go.
Just weird. I haven't spoken to him (even so much as an email) in over 3 years, he IMs me, tells me he's having a baby and cuts out? Just strange. Now I'll admit I'm totally curious, wonder if he's married, who the baby mama is, etc. I'm not uncomfortable being in contact with him, or telling DH--it's not like that. I'm just a little weirded out that after no contact with me for years he gets back in touch to say he's having a baby and then shares no other info--I'm way to nosy to be happy with that.

Re: Weird, weird, weird.
That's very odd. I think IIOY's theory is a good one. Next time you see him online, just IM him to say that you didnt' have a chance to say congrats. Maybe then, he'll offer up all the juicy details. Report back if they are particularly scandalous.
