Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Contacting an old high school girlfriend?

Anyone ever had a hankering to reach out to an old high school girlfriend just to say "hi" and see how she's doing? Anything weird about that? TIA

Nothing too weird in thinking about it.

If you decide to go any further, make the deal with Springer first...

I've done it more than once, but never planned to do more than say hello.

I think everyone does at some point.

Its better if you both have a mutual friend, and that person can tell you in general terms how she's doing which is prob'ly 90% of what you wanted to know anyway.

You could have that friend say "Hi" if ya wanted too.

Weird? No. Dangerous, especially if you're married? Yup.

Dangerous if she's married too.

Dangerous especially if she is married.

Why? And now?

You single? If not, seriously consider my first two questions,

I occasionally think of someone from my past and wonder about them.
But don't usually reach out. Damn sure wouldn't to a former girlfriend.

Let's see, you find out she's an addict, ugly, 8 kids to 10 fathers, convict...
You are upset.

She looks at you and says, "you sure gained weight, lost hair..."
You are upset.

She is still smokin!.
And you hit it off and have a great time.
Now what. Seeds are planted.


Nope. Bad idea.

Nothing gives a warm glow like a former boyfriend of your wife's reaching out to her

Them bitches are all on Social Security now, fat and ugly.

A few years ago, I looked up my previous girlfriend on line. Reaffirmed what I all ready knew. She most definitely had changed for the worse over the years. I'm so lucky to have married the right girl We've been together over 30 years now.

Look her up on FB. That about as close as you need to go.

Social media (facebook) is good for that, And yeah, the past is the past, there's a reason I lost touch with my HS class.

Most of the girls are normal, young grandmother types, a few have been married multiple times (Red Flag!!) Some are dead, some are rich (or appear to be on FB),

Sating "HI" to old girlfriends (or boyfriends) is why we have reunions, THen it's another 10 years to see them again.

Almost nothing good could come of this.

Looked up my first serious girlfriend some years back. She had died. Not at all what I had expected.

She had kept her looks and shape apparently, and never married.

Maybe he wants to rattle her bones one more time for old times sake. See what mighta been.

BTDT. One rather bland looking one got rather attractive, one hot one got very dumpy, another is a talking head on national TV every morning, and another just got out of prison (not jail). Most are just normal people.

It can be fun/fine. BUT...

If its completely innocuous, fine. But unless you are unhappy where you are and are seeking change, I'd still suggest dont do it. Very good way to upset your wife. I dont mean piss of or enrage, but to actually upset her.

I have many friends, male and female, who ruined a relationship with this pandoras box.

If both are single no harm no foul. If either is married, bad idea.

Everyone I went to high school with has really gotten old.
