Has anyone had encounters finding old high school flames that went wrong since..

Yeah, some people just do that. Is sadistic and selfish. they simply turn their back to people, with no apparent reason. Did I get the point? Don't ask yourself and do not suffer. They are like that, maybe they will change someday, maybe they won't, maybe they will apologize 5 minutes before they die. I don't wanna go too far with that, but is perfect if you don't go too far being hurt by those people. Just think how hard it is to speak the truth and be a correct person. Anything can be explained to people , or at least we should try to before .. leaving. I was like that a long time ago. Those times are gone, and I changed.

Hmmmm - I think they are still talking out the side of their neck - They obviously never deserved you - not then and especially not now - If the were real and wanted to do the things it toke to keep your heart - they would have done it a long time ago - just like you are thinking - But they missed out and you got someone that will and does - I have a woman that I wish I would have professed my love to - we were friends - not lovers - I am still kicking myself in the butt for never telling her How I feel! I did everyting I could to find her and I finally did! Now I have gotten shy again - I don't want her to think I am some kind of pervert or something - ohhh what to do huh???

i think this does happen very commonly.. well they feel that they have missed out on something giving you up. i wouldnt give up what i have now to go back to my past, but i do think what would happen if (one in particular) did stay in my life and we worked things out, how differently my life would be right now and i seriously dont think i would be as happy as i am now. not sure why i feel that way but yeah...

i had chance to meet some former school mate. but some are not actually my classmate just schoolmate. i just felt sad i was not able to go to the reunion. missed the chance to see them. and the worst thing i felt i let some or few friends down when i didn't come to that reunion. i didn't have friends or much friends. i had too few friends back then. and i didn't know actually who were my real friends were in high school. not until that reunion when they wanted to come to that reunion badly. that was only i knew that they were actually my friends cause they in a way missed me. and they felt so sad that i didn't were able to come. cause one friend told how bad they felt but they were not angry just felt bad that some things like reunion don't come or happen often. i just felt their sadness a day after that event when i didn't attend. and since then i just had this sad and lonely feeling every time i remember what i did. anyways, some of them are working in other countries that is why i can't see them when i want to. some things you will just learn the importance of it when you don't have it or lose it already.

I think, to these guy, if they chose you years ago, they would say the same words to other girls. Some people always think that they would have a better life if they did or didn't do something before. But in fact, they did something else. They just get what they did. Just enjoy it. I think there is no need to regret.

Hi Dd! I think you are wise to realize that you should always be happy for what you have, and looking back is fun, but I eould never leave my wonderful life and family for a not sure thing from the past! I have of course contacted people from my past on Facebook, and it was a great walk down memory lane, but never for one minute did I think that it would be a good idea to change what is good in my life now! I love seeing what other people are up to in life now, but it was a long time ago for me, and all of our lives are changed. Nostalgia is great, but I don't get carried away with it. Great discussion.

i am a 20 years old girl.when i have a problem when i was grow up ,my mom told me one thing: she has met a guy who love her.when they daparted and then met again,the guy phoned my mom one night when he drank a lot.he cried and said he haven't stoppesd thinking about my mom,and missed her every day.when my mom told me this she cried too.but she is a sensible lady .she already have a happy family!so she won't give it up!of course my dad know nothing about this.and they are still in love.and the guy and my mom are friends!

ddhawkins, In my opinion, people often reacct this way becuase they have missed out on spending time with you. another reason they have moved on with their live and may have had some bad time's and are re living what experience's they have had with you and are imagining it bieng better with you instead of the path they have chosen to go. with that bieng said you have moved on with your life got married and had kids and granchildern(with no regret's), the grass is always greener on the other side when it is bieng visited again. for the first time in along time. It all boil's down to this it is a physcological thing that can not be answered of why, it is only their regret's. This type of thing has not happend to me, as i was a loner in high school and didnt spend much time with friend's out doing stuff we hung out at my house. Maybe also cause it is a generation thing iam 25 met my husband when i was 12 dated off and on till 18 and we got pregnant and married.though it has happend to him,(tis where my opinion comes from).
