Hey, i need a second opinion on this. A buddy of mine just came back from the military and we went out for st. pattys day. While we were catching up, we met some girls and then we hit up the dance floor. I notice that he looked upset and that something was bothering him, so i asked him what was wrong? Well he had one hell of a story to tell me. I'm gonna give the short version. 5 years ago before his parents sent him out to alberta and he got put into the military, he dated this girl. Well on the 3rd date he found they were really into eachother and that was the same night they had sex. Well that was gonna be the last night he saw her cause two days later he got sent off to alberta to live with his uncle and attend military school. He was pretty out of control, i guess we both were but i never got into drugs like he did. Well we both grew up and this is the first time seeing eachother in 5 years. I'm a certified automotive technician and he is a certified air plane mechanic.... Well, he tells me after he got sent out he couldn't keep contact with her cause he didn't have access to a computer, a few months later when he finally did, he looked into his inbox and there was a nasty letter telling him off, he decided not to reply and let it go. All he could think about is her for the last 5 years, now that he is back in town he has her contact info and wants to talk to her but he's scared. He knows shes probaly moved on but he wants to tell her that he never used her for a one night stand, he's scared she wouldn't beleieve him. I told him what does he have to lose really? tell her what the deal was and if she doesn't get back to you let it go. He also asked me what he should say, i really didn't have an answer for that.

 

Any info would be awsome!

 

thanks!

After 5 years, I would call and say...

 

Hey, it's been a long time and now that I am back in town, I wanted to grab a cup of coffee and catch up with you. I'm free on Tuesday or Thursday.

 

(and then shut up. The next person that speaks... loses)

 

He doesn't need to start explaining himself, apologizing, etc and shouldn't. It would be quite arrogant for him to assume she cares or even is bothered by what he did 5 years ago. He has a very good story to tell and if and when the time comes for that, I am sure she would love to know / hear it.

Thanks man! he doesn't have her number but he found her on facebook, so he's gonna shoot her a message sometime this week. He said he would rather call her cause he thinks it would go over better but this is the only contact info he has.
