Chalk one up for MySpace

[JPS]

Yesterday I finally got in contact with someone I havent talked to since 2nd grade, almost 20 years ago

Ive been searching for her for almost 7 years, shes the only person I remember from elementary school



She surprisingly remembered me, and she said shes been wandering about me also.

Too bad she lives in Georgia now, and married, with 2 kids.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? Dont have to be myspace, can be anything in general, high school reunions or anything?

It almost looks like she's pulling herself out of magician's hat.

I recently found an old friend of mine from high school/early college. He has a very unique name, which made it easier.

I dont know, I just felt the frowny face best interpreted my thoughts on the matter :3

Her last name is Ratke, the Ratke wasnt hard to find, but considering I had to search EVERY Ratke in the US because I didnt know where she lived, it kinda left me with a buttload of names to call, come to find out, her name wasnt listed, so I had to go about finding a relatives phone #, I found her fathers name as a surviving relative in an obituary for her sister, so I called all of the #s I could find that matched his name, finally I found him and asked him to give her my #, which was 2 years ago...she never called.

I searched myspace before but found a feature yesterday where you can narrow searches that I never noticed before, so bingo! I messaged her asking if her last name was Ratke and she messaged back saying "HEY I KNOW YOU!", and also that her dad never gave her the #

I've used MySpace to find and contact estranged or long-distance friends and family before. It's surreal and awesome and kind of creepy all at the same time.

When I joined facebook it took a week or two before my ex boyfriend found me and dropped me a line. The funny thing is, we had no people mutually friended, which meant he actually had to be searching for me actively.

He was like "Whenever I watch anime I think of you and it reminds me of happier times..." and missed me and junk and wanted to talk to me.

Did I mention he got married?

I was like "Uh, dude... no."

On the upside, I found all my favorite coworkers from when I worked at Epcor!

JPS, if you are REALLY that unhappy with your wife, why don't you just tell her and do something about it.

Wow...

Well, I was a pretty avid anime-watcher at the time I was dating him. That was like... god, that was almost eight years ago. >_>;;

Edit: ...I made him watch the Cardcaptor Sakura movie with me. HE LIKED IT.

I was just poking fun at the fact that I liked her in elementary school and all, Im happy with my wife for the most part, I just pick around that I dont because we always do that to one another anyways, so I do it unintentionally.

She lurks on this board anyways so she sees everything I say

Ok its just that sometimes it seems the things you say are very negative toward your relationship and you seem truly unhappy.

My second grade girlfriend added me on myspace not too long ago. And she wanted to meet up.

Then she told me she was preggo and doesn't know who the daddy is.

I ignore her now.

Re: Chalk one up for MySpace

I lack a social network so I cannot experience such luxuries as finding old friends.

Meh, they're probably dead anyway |:3

I seem that way sometimes when I post and Im mad at her, and she also has stated that she doesn't really want to be with me...so I just consider us mutual spouses...or something like that.

Im happy and satisfied with life though like I said, theres bigger fish in the sea(as there always will be) but I dont know when Ill cut the string and rebait my pole, if ever. :3

Thank you for the advice though, its appreciated.
