You sometimes happen to meet a long lost friend in a school reunion, a family gathering or perhaps you just happen to meet them in a coffee shop or in a shopping mall. When this happens, what do you normally talk about aside from the hi's, hello's and the how are you stuff?In my case, my buddies and I loved to talk about our adventures when we cut classes, we try to recall the names of our puppy loves, the first time we drank alcohol/beer, and all of the fun and memorable things we had when we were young. How about you, what do you talk about?

My friends and I used to talk about our life generally, like the relationships in our own family, special someone, other friends, etc. We also talk about our future plans in life, usually a business that hanging in the air, plan to have a new house or appliance. We also talk about silly things like when someone was slipped on the road while there are many people around, or if someone bumped into a glass wall not knowing it was a wall at all.

We useally talk about what's been going on in our day to day lives. We'll talk about old times we used to have which ever one of us brings it up gives us a good laugh for a moment. It's just amazeing how things can change when you get seperated from a long lost friend then just run into them like you do not expecting to at all. The last time I ran into an old high school friend of mine he ended up comeing into my work and I must say it was really good to see him we caught up on so much. I hope to get this chance more often.

We talk alot of politics when we meet with long time friends-there are usually hot political topics in my country-ranging form fraud by political leaders to creating of new districts for political convenience!

We will talk about topics on our common interest, that is : current affairs and religion. We had endless discussions on these topics before.

your question has touched me and I would liketo narrate a whole story about it.........last week I met my old school mates at a reunuion. In the beginning it all went very well and there were lots of hi and hello. however as the reunuion went by I came to realise the hard facts of life that some of them were facing. One of them had lost his parents in a tragic bus accident. Another one had become a father of two at the petty age of 20 and without a job. Another one had got paralysed in a attack............So overall at the end of the reunuion I came to realise that life is full of hard facts. its never a bed of roses. its actually a path of thorns. I wish i could do something for my friends...........I really wish to help them in one way or the other. I wish i could give my best friend his parents back. But the rules of this world are very strict. God does not like good people to stay on earth any more. Its more of a hell now. there is comptition and hatred everywhere. I wish I were never born in the first place!

When I meet someone I haven't seen for a long time we sit and talk about everything from if we are or when we were married to when we were younger and the things we used to do and get up to really just about everything-your friend littleowl

We usually talk about what we are doing with our life now. Weather we are working or not. About if we have families and if we are married or have a partner. We will also talk about mutual friends that we use to have will ask how they are doing and if we still keep in touch with them. And we will also remember all the good times we had together and the fun things that we done.
