Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

I almost posted this on overthinking thread but feel better here. I have been thinking of contacting my first serious girl friend. We ended well. I knew she fell in love with another guy while we were a couple, and at 20 it was hard to accept. But a year later we met and had a good conversation and wished each other well.

And about 50 years have passed, and I know from social media and relatives (our families were close beause of church), that she had a good career as I have. I would like to catch up with her and see what happened (I heard she was divorced). I mean what is the worst thing that can happen? She says do not contact me? Your thoughts.
I think you should actually have a pretty decent chance of her agreeing to see you.

You ask the toughest questions! I had a girlfriend when I was 18, she would have been perfect for me, but she was full of her self and her daddy was military. I heard she was killed in Vietnam and I was devastated! God or whatever is a cruel bastard. But I waited and I'm now married to my perfect woman, you know the rest.

Facebook friends request? They constantly recommend people. Almost all my exes, former coworkers, cousins of former coworkers have already sent me friends requests. Drop a line like it was so nice to see you on facebook and remember fondly, yada yada. worst case she ignores it.

Do it.

I say go for it. Reach out on Facebook, like Justa suggested. The worst that happens is she ignores the message/friend request or says no thanks.
 
It’s ok to lurk and like/love/wow/sad/angry to posts without commenting. It’s like letting us know you’re here even if you don’t have time to post, or sometimes don’t have any to say. Don’t think of it as being weird, think of it as being comforting. I’m comforted knowing you’re around. Even if you don’t have much to say
Sometimes I'm lurking, but more often I'm playing catch up... although I am getting better about only going back a page or two. If people think I'm weird for giving them a positive reaction to their post a day later, oh well. I am a bit weird. I always appreciate knowing someone connected with something I said, or was flattered by it, or found it funny.

Exactly! If I didn’t want to inspire people in one way or another (I usually go for laughs) I wouldn’t bother posting. I like knowing I’ve made someone smile or feel appreciated.

No one plays catch up like you do. You always have a thoughtful reply for everyone. It must be time consuming but you’re always very kind and considerate. I appreciate you

I appreciate you too, lovely. You bring such a sense of fun, inclusivity, and community wherever you post. ❤️

that isn't weird at all, a day in lit time is like current. And that is a great outlook.

Same here, no way to keep up with all you chaotic folks...so I just run through the last page or so. I do often times worry if others find it weird when I react to posts a day or week old. I'm glad you appreciate the day or 2 late reaction.
