Reconnecting old friendships

I have this friend from high school who I was very close with. We stuck together through some college and then seperated. A few years ago I e-mailed her and we chatted. We exchanged phone numbers but never called each other. Here it is, another year, and I'm e-mailing her again. I really would like to see her but I'm afraid to call her (I'm actually quite embarassed to say that). So I told her in the e-mail that I would like to meet up with her. I'm nervous to see what she's going to write back.

I'm probably being silly about this whole thing...but do you think you'd feel this way too?

I would probably feel like you do. One thing I have learned is that true friendships do survive the separation and tribulations of life. I'm sure she is going to be thrilled to hear from you...I know I would if it were me.

Stefanie, if this was a dear friendship to you, I think it is a good idea to pursue!!!

I had a long time best friend from childhood, and we separated for many years during our 20's due to an argument. It was actually my DH who went behind my back and sent her a STD for our wedding (he knew how much I missed her and how important she was in my life). Well she did make my wedding and a couple of years later we are closer than ever.Chat Icon

The truth of the matter is you are taking a risk. But if it is important to you as well as the person involved things might turn out nicely. I would be delighted if an old friend from my past decided to e-mail me; most people would. Good luck.Chat Icon

Re: Reconnecting old friendships

Well...she's exactly the same as I last remembered her. She was so happy that I called her and she told me that she was thinking about me too for the longest time. We talked about the past, went through pictures and just updated each other on our lives. She kept saying to me, I can't believe you're a mom. A lot can happen in 7 or 8 years.Chat Icon

I am so happy for you. Reconnecting with someone you were close to in the past is one of the best feelings. I am a true believer in everything happens for a reason maybe you girls have been thinking so much of each other because you need each other again.

Good for you!!! Chat Icon
