(There is no fool like an old fool.)
I'm 79 and C is now in her early 70's. We broke up about 30 years ago after a steamy two year relationship and I never got over her. I was an asshole. I still am an assshole but I am better at it (I take lessons in advanced assholery).
I still think about her from time to time. My love of 23 years died of cancer, 7 years ago. Then I went back to occasionally thinking about C. Not doing anything about it as I figure she doesn't need or want me in her life.
C and I have had no contact in the thirty years. THEN, last evening a mutual friend said she had contact with C and the first thing C asked was about me. My friend brought this up twice during our conversation.
Now I can't get her out of my head. I have been obsessing about her all day.
That is all.

(4,615 posts)Just say a mutual friend said x, y, z and you thought youd look her up to see how things are going.
(First rule of negotiations: ask. If you dont ask, you dont get. Nothing has to come of it, but it could be the first day of the rest of your lives together.)
