I talked wih my first ex boyfriend after 15 years.
Even though we live in a same small town, we never really got the chance to talk. We would see each other sometimes, but it was just passing by.
I must admit I avoided him in the beginning of our split, then moved to a different country for 5-6 years. I moved back home 4 years ago.
Well, today I saw him walking his dog and joined him. We walked and talked for half an hour.
He said, even if it was 15 years ago, it feels like it was yesterday.
It is 3:50 am now and I still can't sleep.
Reconnecting after so long can be such a mixed bag of feelings. It's interesting how time and distance can change perspectives. I'm curious, did the conversation bring back fond memories or was it more about where life has taken you both?
