should i contact a long lost girl


Recommended Posts

Several years ago, I met a girl at college... we had a couple of classes together. Anyways, we went out several times during and after college. We were never romantically involved but we had good chemistry and she wasn't wanting to get involved at that time since she had just gotten out of a relationship at the time. Then she went to graduate school and she stopped responding to me through phone and email. Well, I lost track of her for a couple of years. I recently came across a new email address for her on an alumni website from her graduate school. My question is should I contact her and how should I go about it?

 

Thanks

I generally think that you should do that kind of thing on impulse, before you start dreaming up wild expectations and overanalyzing your every move. Now you're doomed to be nervous and awkward with her which will rub off on her. I say, sure, definately try to email her once and just say "hey, how's it going! thought i'd try an email here to see how your life is treating you." etc. But if it's one of those classmates sites, you know, people don't always update their emails or check regularly.. So that's a great reason to avoid saying to much without a response from her. Just initiate friendly contact and say 'reply if you get this before i say too much to empty air space" then whether or not she replies tells you a) that it's her current email and b) that she is interested in speaking to you. If she wasn't interested in a little friendly game of catch-up, she could very easily ignore you with no guilt.
