So I just got out of a long relationship and started getting into the dating scene again and quickly found a girl at school. Over a few weeks we got pretty physically attractive to each other and I thought we were opening up to each other. She is back at school currently taking a summer class and wanted to check in since it had been about a week since I last talked to her.
Now here is the situation, I found her Xanga and did not tell her and I have been randomly checking in on it since she was having some problems with her brother and I didnt think I was hearing the entire story, then I happened to read this...

I was finishing up my circuit theory homework when my phone rang. A certain boy (you know who I'm talking about) called me to "check in" and see if things were going ok. Hm...yeah I don't really know what to do about that. This guy is way into me (not to be conceited...it's true) and I don't want anything to do with him right now. Super nice guy, I'm just not into him, nor do I have time for him...plus he's in St. Louis for the summer and I'm in Columbia. Whatever, I told him that I didn't want to be with him and he took that as, give her time and it will work out. And his sister's getting married in August and he was talking about me going to the wedding with him...that's weird to me. I don't know him that well, and things like weddings...don't really want him to get any ideas hahaha wow I feel silly.

Now that I have read this I know that it was fun while it lasted and I'll stop it here.
But my real question is, was this an ethical thing to do? Did I have any right to read her journal? Is it public domain now its online? If I were to persue her without reading this and cause more turmoil would that have been worse? Do the ends justify the means?
Also, any help specifically to my situation would be appeciated. Its been a while since I've had to court a girl too.
