Reaching out to old former friends and girl friends

Recently I was in a city where an old girl friend I haven't seen in almost 40 years lives. I thought for a short moment of reaching out to her to meet for a cup of coffee just to see how life turned out for her. I didn't do it. I figured it best just to pass through,
There are quite a few people I have run across through my life that are spread across the country that I have reached out to on occasion and had a good visit or call or online exchange.
What have been some of your experiences doing such things?

You should not have reached out to the OT.

They asked me for money.
I’m currently trying to let go of my first 20 years. I want to reach out sometimes but I gotta move on and live in the present.

I’m married so nothing really good can come from reaching out to an old flame. Chances are, they are too so just let the urge go.

This is why they make FB. You look them up on that, see that the 20 year-old smokeshow body is now a Happy Meal from 300 lbs., and thank your lucky stars that you bailed back then.

If you want to reach out, reach out. But don’t have expectations that they will want to reciprocate in return. It’s their choice as well.
It could be great. Or it may not. You’ll never know, unless you try. That’s the only decision you have to make. Everything else is out of your hands.

I really only have one friend from high school that I remotely keep in touch with. We email periodically. 4 other of my friends have died, and the rest I have no idea where they are.

I’m an introvert. I’m in a text group with guys I have been friends with from first grade up until my teenage years. I’m now in my 50’s and really these are my only friends. I have people I’m friendly with but I wouldn’t necessarily say we are friends. I guess I mean people you feel completely at ease with and can be yourself.

reaching out?

I moved around so much that I stopped attempting enduring relationships with other than family. (until I moved to NWLA the longest I lived in one place was like 6 years. NWLA move was 2001-2019) So the nearest thing I have was running into my Little League teammate from Memphis while attending LaTech (his grandma was from Shreveport it turns out, used her address to avoid out of state tuition).

People trash on smaller towns and rural parishes, but I still have many friends from early grade school through high school that I spend time with regularly. This is common for most people around here who didn’t fall into drugs.

I never understood the purpose of that scene

If you're married, save yourself the drama that stems from trying to be friends with women. Never a good idea.

I’ve been off the grid for more than 10 years social media wise but I was thinking about starting a FB yesterday to connect with people. Probably would regret it quickly so probably not.

How about reaching out to Jesus instead?

I responded to a FB request from a woman I had not seen since 2nd year in college. 48 years. Had some chatter back and forth on FB messenger. We live 400 miles apart. I’m widowed and she is married.
I quit responding to her chats and about 4 months later she showed up at my front door. Yikes. I told her to go home and would not let her into my house.

I’m sure you’re as wanted to be heard from by them as much as you are wanted to be hear by here…not very much.
