This time of year makes me nostalgic for people who were important to me but have either passed on or I have lost touch with. One close friend in particlular comes to my mind. We lost contact with each other around the same time I began my sober life. I miss her greatly and think of her often. We did not part intentionally. Both of us were going through difficult times and became too emeshed in our own lives to reach out to anyone else.

*If you could have one person you have lost touch with call you up tonight and invite you to dinner, who would you want it to be?

It's so funny that you're posting on this topic because I had a dream about a long-lost friend last night that I would love to hear from again. She left NY to go to school in FL & got married to someone there. I'd see her when she'd come to visit her family in NY but somehow we just lost touch.
Maybe you're the impetus for me to find her again. Her name is Joie Perrella Slover and the last time I heard she was still living in Pensacola, FL. Anyone know her?
Claudia have you tried doing a people search for her? It would be great to be reunited wouldn't it?
David I will venture over to read your post shortly.
If you are talking about living but lost touch with, it would be my friend Kelly that I grew up with. I moved when I was 12, then she moved we kept contact with each other till I was about 16 and then we lost touch. She had gotten pregnant and had gotten married, really, really young. I misplaced the last letter I got from her, which had her new last name. I have not talked to her 25 years.
Do you have any ideas how to start a search for someone? I remember one time being able to access the white pages for an area but now it seems that it's a business that helps find out people's really personal records i.e. bankruptcy, etc.
I'd appreciate any guidance anyone might have, please send me a personal email. thanks
Thanks for the prompting!
I have a friend I lost contact with. When I moved from New York, she became depressed and said she'd never talk to me again, and she didn't. I miss her terribly and know she misses me, but some people have to have it all. Sorry for your loss.
She practically raised me, and gave me unconditional love. I miss her so often these days.
And, in close second, was my best friend back in school, Nicole Lunsford.
We went through so much together. We laughed, had sleep overs at her house, I watched her play games. We had a total blast.
I miss her so much, it's painful sometimes.
Just wanted to let you know I stopped by. Here's a 10, thanks for posting at Up All Nite Café.
She has tried to make ammends but I refused to speak/see her and now that I'm ready to discuss her betrayal---- I think it's too late.
