Reconnecting

How do you reconnect with friends you have not seen in 25 years?

I’m having the jitters. I’m meeting friends I’ve not met in a long, long time – and I don’t know what to expect. Whenever I mention about meeting old, old friends – someone commented “don’t you find it difficult to reconnect at first”? Now, I understand what he meant.

Some friends you reconnect easily despite the number of years – but some you really don’t know.
Are they still the same?
Will we talk about the past?
Will they accept the "now-me
"?
Will we have long gaps of silence, or blabber till the morning
?
Will we be unguarded with our conversations or hold back
?
Questions, jitters, anxiety. Answers I will know very soon.

New York here I come!

  1. I guess it also depends on how close you were before, if you were really close I suspect you would blabber away. Hope you have loads of fun.
