bohemianjack: If you're interested, don't be so coy; you're not in high school any more.

Write him back and invite him to expand on his thoughts

Stop hiding behind your keyboard and get on the phone

"Caretake this moment. Immerse yourself in its particulars. Respond to this person, this challenge, this deed. Quit the evasions. Stop giving yourself needless trouble. It is time to really live; to fully inhabit the situation you happen to be in now." ~Epictetus


Sometimes its great to feel like you're in Highschool again grin

sweetowen: I guess I'm also baffled as to why he thought he should tell me. If it was in the past & that was where he'd like it to remain, I would think he wouldn't have said anything. WHOA BOY... here I go analyzing again!!!
Just contact the lad and see how it goes no chance of anything if you don'tgrin cheers cheers cheers

it doen't much but think of it as your thoughts is the sickness and you won't know and might get sicker if you don't find out.like me I was really getting into this girl and finally when I told her it's not what she wanted Where I thought it would go somewhere.but I guess it's a mind thing for me.

sweetowen:

Part of me wanted to email him again & tell him how his email has gotten me thinking... but is it really worth it? It's just been on my mind constantly since he dropped this on me!


What have you got to lose love? Nothing...go for it.

sweetowen: I wish I could, but he apparently lives in Florida now & I'm still in Pennsylvania.


And the problem is?

Go get him love.....grab the chance by the balls and see what comes of it. If nothing, you've tried...BUT if you don't give it a go, you'll be forever wondering.

Then make the offer that if he is ever in your neck of the woods that you wouldn't mind meeting up over a coffee and chatting about the old school days.........

I bet he ends up in your neck of the woods sooner than you expect !

peace

In response to: The other day, I wished a former classmate happy birthday on another site. He emailed me & confessed that he'd had a huge crush on me in high school. He said I look like I'm doing very well now & look fantastic. He said, "I'm telling you this 27 years later." I replied that I'd also thought he was cute in high school. He now lives quite a distance away. And he didn't play into it either. He's still quite handsome! Why didn't he just let me know in high school??

Part of me wanted to email him again & tell him how his email has gotten me thinking... but is it really worth it? It's just been on my mind constantly since he dropped this on me!


The quote mentioned earlier sums up everything:
A wise man once told me.....he regretted things he had done in life...but regretted more the things he had not done

I think that one of the worst feelings that one can have is the "what if" feeling, so if I were you I would just go for it, find out, it may turn out to be nothing, or a total disaster, but it could also turn out to be a great experience. I wish you the best of luck, loads of light and good energy and whatever is meant to be will be. peace applause applause

My opinion:

Keep communication alive. How about going for a week to Miami beach to get a nice suntan? First let him know you will be in his neighborhood, and it would be great to catch up if he can make it. Go for friendship first, to make sure there is chemistry and availability.

Long distance can work just fine if you like each other.

Oh honey! Oh Time, you thief! Doll, I was such a wallflower in high school I had a difficult time saying hello to people. He's just a late bloomer, as are many in school days. It's probably really neat that you two are contacting now--are you/he available. (You want him to be, is my guess. Fortune favors the bold, love. Climb every mountain and fjord every stream......
