About 2 months ago, a guy I was friends with in high school found me on the internet (he told me "I googled you"). We hadn't spoken in about 20 years. He started sending me e-mails regularly. He's married with 2 kids. I've got absolutely no interest and told him that I was rebuilding my marriage. He's still sending occasional e-mails.
This evening, out of freakin' nowhere, I get a telephone call on my home phone number from a guy I knew in Washington DC 20 years ago! Haven't heard from him since we said our goodbyes the morning we both left our internships. 20 years later, I'm making my kids dinner on a Monday night and he calls (got my home number from an alumni directory) and tells me that he considers what we had a "loose end" in his life. He told me he'd never forgotten about me all these years, was married and divorced, and asked whether I might be available to get together. I told him that I was still happily married and had no interest and it was just too wierd to hear from him after all these years.
WHAT'S UP WITH THIS ALL?????? This is just TOO wierd for me. Both of these guys apparently had a thing for me a long, long time ago, have been muddling thru life and for whatever reason in the world were recently moved to find me and see whether they might stand a chance with me, even though we haven't spoken in like two decades.
I'm humming the theme to the Twilight Zone now, but does anyone think that this is just a coincidence? or is this some kind of test of my intentions? or what?????? Thanks to anyone who reads this and has some idea, other than that I might be crazy. Thanks! Mo.


Boy it does sound like "SOMEONE" is out to trip you up, watch out for pitfalls.

Personally, I think it's kind of sad. Like those people are so dissatisfied with their present lives that they're trying to go back to something that they thought was better.
For me, my life right now in this moment is better than when I was 23 or 33 or even 13. Maybe if I'd known how good 13 was, I would have enjoyed it more!
Take care!
