Contacting an old flame?

Seth · 02-27-2009, 06:59 PM

I don't live in the country where I was born and grew up, so I've lost contact with a lot of people. I find something like facebook a useful way to catch up with old friends that I've lost touch with, and it's nice to see what they're up to. If I find one, normally I just send them a message and say hi. But this one, because I had such a crush on her when I was younger, I can't figure if I should say hi or leave here alone

These thoughts probably also have something to do with the fact it's Friday night and I'm home alone

Sometimes the Internet is the salvation of those who lost contact (even that of the love).
But can we really expect those little miracles in order to find our lost love.
And if the world back on as before if we are reunited, the old love.
Or accept the new things of who sends news changed.

Write to her and say Hi. If nothing else, you can be her friend.

Your old flame might be happily married by now and have kids. But even though, she might like to hear what happened to you, too.

Even if she doesn't want to write back, you still would have your memories. I'd give it a try.

Send her a letter and say HI it can't hurt!

Yeah, I've done that many times - find an "old friend" on Facebook or Myspace or Classmates and written to them. One of the girls I had a crush on in High School is now living with her female "life partner" after being married and having two daughters. Another High School gal friend is now living about 20 miles from me and I had NO idea until I wrote to her on Classmates.

I say "write to the girl." You are probably afraid of "being rejected" but... nothing ventured, nothing gains.

i contacted an old flame and have become very good friends... she is married now... but we can stillbe good friends. her husband is a good guy.

the way i see it is simple. if you don't try to contact her and talk to her, you will always wonder what could have been. even if you don't get a response, at least you know you tried. and maybe she will want to continue the friendship, maybe it will lead to more, maybe it won't but at least you will not have that nagging voice in the back of you head asking "what if..."
