Lol I guess we can see why I'm not the one winning writing awards.

Every once and a while if they pop up in relevant conversation or thought. Just last night I had a dream about an ex. He was coaching the team my kid was playing. So I googled him this morning, saw a LinkedIn, nothing exciting.

I don't really have anyone in my past where there's bad blood or a falling out, only people I have lost touch with where there's no reason to reconnect. Sometimes I get curious or sentimental, I think it's natural!

Sometimes. I have thought about someone and googled them to find out they have died. Intuition, maybe.

Occasionally if someone pops into my head. I may or may not admit to it in real life, depending on who I'm talking to.

I used to google people I'd broken up with or had a falling out with all the time. Like every day. Now I almost never do. I also don't use social media much anymore, and very rarely for this purpose.

I am in a much healthier mental space now.

If someone pops into my head and I think " I wonder what they're doing now" I might google them. But I'm 54 and I'd say about 50% or more of the people my age have zero social media presence. So some are not out there to read about at all. Others are in fact dead, which can be depressing to find.

And I’ll admit I google old loves every once and a while, too.




You rejected me back in 8th grade.
