I've thought about old loveds and wondered where they are or what they are doing. I have wanted to contact an old flame, but I there is only one I would actually try to contact again. One tried to contact me and after about an hour I realized why he an ex and chose to keep it that way. No more contact with him. Others? On a case by case basis.
If nothing else, just to "say hello? I have grown up now, how are you?"
Yes, but I have not. I actually found one guy that I use to date pretty seriously, but we have both moved on. I just kind of wanted to see how he was doing. Wanted to see if he ever got married or had a child.
I was friends with my first crush in 1969 and lost track of him in 1977. When I got my first computer in 1998 I found his name in a guestbook on a rock musician site online and wrote to him.
Long story short -- he relocated and moved in with me in 2000 and we've been happily together since!
No way... I don't need to browse my own yard sale. I know what's there and I don't want any of it anymore. A few years ago I ran (literally) into one of my x's, I was looking at something up high in a store and I stepped back and bumped right into him! I turned around to apologize but the only word that came out of my mouth was "eeeewwww!" I was mortified. I said sorry, but he stormed out of the store. It was pretty funny though, my niece (about 7 at the time) said "well, at least he can figure out what that means!" (he was way stupid). Another x was trying to get in touch with me this year (we dated for like 4 months when I was 16) I just replied "married" and he stopped emailing.
The times that I've done that, I've regretted it. Horribly awkward. I still find myself thinking about doing it to this day, but every time that thought creeps in, I think about how the last few encounters went. Badly.
wow. Those must have been some tough times. I hope you feel better.

Thanks. I'm mostly cool with it, in retrospect. Good that most of that's in the past. I used to have a habit of not allowing things to stay in the past, but I think I'm learning my lesson about that.
Yes, I have tried to look him up a few times but he is not listed. I am not trying too hard though. I could show up at his parents house and ask around if I was really serious about finding him.
