[quote=Anonymous]Over a decade ago, in my early 20's, I had a short, 6-month fling. It was very non-commital, but it was fun and adventurous. It was primarily physical, but we did spend time going out and meeting each other's friends. It ended very quickly when I met my (now ex) husband. He was crushed and lashed out, said he had loved me, but at the time, he made no effort to move towards any committed relationship. I still went on casual dinner dates with other guys at the time and was testing the waters (as you do when you're 23). We were physically compatible and relaxed around each other; we would talk for hours at a time or sit in the corner of a restaurant, never running out of things to talk about - just the two of us.

My marriage ended a year ago. I thought about him now and then, wondering where and how he was doing. Two weeks ago, I had an intense dream about him to the point where I could not stop thinking about him all day - it was very visceral and felt realistic. In the dream, we reconnected like nothing had changed. I felt an urge to call him or reach out. Two nights ago, I had another dream about him. I woke up and wanted to call him. I didn't have his number anymore. I still remembered his Instagram handle and requested to follow him. Within 5 minutes, he requested to follow me back, and I messaged him. I asked him if he remembered me, and he (jokingly) called me his "white buffalo," the one that got away and how he still thought of me; it made him sad, but he cherished our memories together (some of the conversation was R rated, but that was what our fling was like and where we have a strong compatibility). I wanted to cry, and he gave me his number - we reminisced about the old times; he said he had never forgotten me and still finds me beautiful. I suggested a reunion by the end of the year, and he said he would love to. (He lives about 3-4 hours away).

I want to reconnect with him physically and catch up. I never really developed strong feelings for him, but I always respected him as a good lover and a wonderful person who was always respectful, kind, and fun. He never ended up marrying or having kids; he still lives his very adventurous bachelor lifestyle, rock climbing, and camping—he is just as fit as he was a decade ago and still just as handsome.

Have any of you ever reconnected with an old flame? I am very nervous. [/quote]
