Actually they are childhood/teen friends, so it's several decades, I spent hours almost every day with them for many years so we were pretty close, but then HS hit and we just kinda drifted apart.
I understand - had a similar moment recently re: my own high school friends, which is where my comment comes from (though in my case it was closer to a decade than decades). Some were happy to hear from me, others ghosted.
All of this to say, send a message. You never know!
True enough, thank you :) Appreciate the time, good to hear that you had some success, I'm just not great with people and it's time I admit it and be more open with questions :)
