If it’s something potentially romantic like an old crush, leave it alone. If it’s a friend you lost touch with for whatever reason, can’t hurt to reach out but don’t get your hopes up. You might find the other person isn’t quite as nostalgic and would rather leave the past exactly where it is.
Mine were mostly superficial & self centered way back then. I outgrew those friendships long ago & resonate deeply with my present friendships. And not interested in anymore class reunions.. My 20th was great . that was good enough & I live so far away anyway . thank God lol 😂
Yeah, i just reconnected with an old boyfriend from my 20s. Im now almost 40. I feel like i have lived 20 lives since then, and even been to war and back a few times. So when he kept talking about the past, and wanting to do things we did in the past, it really annoyed me.
Thank you so much Marie😊🙏 I can sure tell by this video that you can relate, it is exactly as you said here 0:33, it was kinda traumatic in a way & also they do remind me of that + is nothing wrong with them, you are 100% correct. I will think about your advice, I will try my best not to feel guilty for not being in these potential friendships
If you have to meet up with a friend from the past, try to remember something really sweet or hilarious they did and remind them about it when you see them, but then ask them what they’re doing now in year 2023! If you can’t remember anything kind or funny, best not to meet up….
I have a childhood friend that I haven’t stopped completely talking with, but she brings me down and I’m just not interested in being friends. We also work together, and have some mutual friends. I feel trapped and she seems to want to still be friends, asking me to hang out. I’ve told her things bother me before but nothing really changes. Am I ok to keep turning down her invites to hang out? If she confronts me should I be honest?
Tricky to directly tell someone how you honestly feel when you have to work with them. I would tell them you’re busy over the next season with school course or something….
In your situation, no matter what she suggests doing outside of work, I would tell her that type of activity isn't really your thing. Then suggest doing something you know she wouldn't like. Pretty soon, she will get the idea that you're no fun to hang out with and she will think it's her idea to stop hanging out. Then it won't strain the work relationship. 😊
I’ve learned majority of the time leave the past alone!
A wise man once said, "When you get to the last page, close the book".
Love it!

Great advice!
Thanks a lot Marie. Your videos help a lot.
I caught up with a high school friend. And i got ghosted after i told them i have a boyfriend. It doesnt make sense.
