Okay, here's the thing:
I am from Sweden, and 18 years ago I was at some sort of school camp where we spent time with lots of students from other schools from my province, and it was kind of like a fun thing that we did before we started what I guess is our equivalent of junior high school - I was 13 years old back then.
On the second evening, I was at a school disco and ended up flirting with a girl on the dance floor for a while (I made eye contact with her several times until she smiled back and looked flattered), which resulted in her coming up to me with two of her friends and talking to me.
I was very awkward most of the time but they turned out to be really extrovert and kept the conversation going, and then I followed them home and stayed there a while, and we shared phone numbers and decided to have breakfast together the next morning, but I somehow lost them there (I don't know what happened, we lost each other for a moment and then I didn't find them again).
One of them did send me a letter a couple months later, but I never answered it - I tend to be really careful whenever I meet new people like that, especially with girls.
Anyway, a moment ago I think I actually found one of them on Facebook by pure accident - I remember her name, and I also remember that one of her friends was from Finland, and she does have a Friend from that country, and they look pretty much the way I remember them, and they come from the correct towns and are my age and everything.
Do you think it is a good idea to ask her if she was at that school camp?
She may not even remember it, but it would be cool to regain some contact with them, for old time's sake.
Yeah it was quite amicable, although I was kind of shy for the most part, haha.
They would handle most of the conversation and I would try my best to talk myself, and we had that conversation for maybe half an hour or something like that, and then they were on their way to their cabin and asked me to follow them.
I am not sure if they were hitting on me or simply being friendly, but I did flirt with one of them shortly before they approached me and then when I was on my way out of the disco room she and her two friends came running after me and her friends said something like "she wants to know your name!".
But like I said, this happened 18 years ago way back in 1999, so I mostly remember fragments.
I don't think my shyness bothered them that much, since I smiled quite often and did enjoy the overall situation.
I think it's ok to send her a friendly, "Hi, remember me? We met at the junior high camp. Just saying 'hello'..." type of message. All you can do is try. If you don't get a response, or a lukewarm response, let it go.
I'd find it weird and kind of creepy, but that's just me. I DO (at least I think so) keep my FB profile pretty private so it has never really been an issue.

Why do you want to contact her now?
I think everyone is Facebook friends with people they don't really know. What's the worst that can happen?
