Quote from: "Keeper"Has any of you broke up or lost a lover and re connect with them years later?



Recently i was talking with a friend about a lover i had years ago and she found her on Facebook for me, she encouraged me to make contact with her to see if maybe there was still a spark there. after a few days i messaged her in that stupid PM box and to my surprise she sent a message back, It read " Call me tomorrow after 2pm", I called the next day and we had a beautiful talk and after about an hour on the phone she got silent and i could her her crying, i asked what was wrong and she told me she has lung cancer and not long to live :( I asked her if maybe we could hook up and meet and talk but since we had history her husband wouldn't be impressed and she declined my offer(4 times), i am crushed that i will not be able to say goodbye. I have txt msg her a few times with no reply. I just dont understand.



I almost regret contacting her. ac_crying

Quote from: "SPECTRE"I have a similar experience. A lost friend (no romance, but good friend) contacted me recently.



She's had a stroke. She's very ill. Her life has been ruined on the eve of becoming a grandmother for the first time.



Whilst there was no romance, and the situation is slightly different, it is a terrible experience when one so dear suffers so much, and all you can do is helplessly stand by.



Life can suck, sometimes. Truly.

It's funny you started this thread because I ran into an old crush at the lake today.  He and I had a great summer together when we were in our teens - fishing, playing chess, kissing on the dock.  I didn't recognize him but he's seen me multiple years and never said anything.  This year he said something.  He's divorced, no kids, well off and a hell of a lot better looking than the dorky kid in Speedos I remembered.  I'm going out to the lake next week and part of me hopes he's gone by that time.  I'd rather leave things in the past if truth be told.
