Can someone explain me (a noob) wtf just happened?
This morning I got 0.31 BTC to my MultiBit wallet. I had payed for about 200 EUR for the 0.31 BTC. Then later in the afternoon I transferred 0.15 BTC to an exchange address. I have done about a dozen transfers before and never had any problems. Anyway after 7 hours my wallet still said that the transfer only had 1 confirm. I then tried to transfer the remaining 0.15 BTC to another exchange but I couldn't??? I waited some more.
Finally I thought there was something wrong and it was taking too long to confirm so I checked the details of the transaction and tried to check the info from blockchain and blockexplorer. But! Both sites said such transaction didn't even exist!!
Also blockchain showed my wallet address final balance was 0.31 BTC... like the transaction never took place. Then I looked help from MultiBit instructions which suggested that if there's no info on blockchain about the transaction I should simply reset my wallet's blockchain... which I did, only to find out my wallet balance is now zero(0!!!)... What on earth happened? I just lost 200 euros. Blockchain still insists my balance should be 0.31 BTC. Block explorer only gives error when searching my address. Also according to my wallet's transaction history my balance should be 0.31?
I'm sad now. What did I do wrong? Sad

Did you pay transaction fees ? Whatever happened keep backup of your wallet

Yes, I did pay the transaction fee.
