Interesting and fun.
Hard to tell if it's cherry picking or if it's a meaningful thing.
My interpretation of Dianne, after she "crossed" with Cooper is that she ended up with Richard and is on a different timeline than Cooper.
I think the other Dianne she saw at the motel was her double and the double's name is Linda.
Lynch shows us Dianne's double, to clue us in that the Cooper look alike that steps out of the motel isn't Cooper -- but Richard.
Note that Richard walks straight to the door and waits for Dianne -- he does not open the car door for her as Cooper would (note that Cooper later opens the door for Laura at the gas station).
So Dianne sleeps with Richard and that's why she behaves as she does -- she realizes that it's not Cooper.
Meanwhile, Cooper sleeps with Linda and Linda realizes it's not Richard, hence the note that Cooper finds the next morning (not to mention his confusion).
I'm probably 100% wrong but that's my current thought on Dianne.
If there was a season 4, we'd not only get a lot of Laura, but Dianne as a side story in a parallel timeline.
