You know that one friend, from Back In The Day, that you always liked, but then you got all busy, and life got all demanding, and you sort of lost touch? Then you kind of missed them, and you kept meaning to call. But then after awhile it had been so long, that whenever you wanted to call it seemed kind of awkward. I mean, what are you going to say? "Hey, I know it's been like, months and months, and so much has happened I don't really know where to start, and I have no real reason to call, nothing super important to say or anything I just...um..........hi?"
So you never call. It gets harder and harder to. And you sort of lose sight of them after awhile. Even if you always liked them and missed them.
Well, you know. It's a New Year. Why not start fresh?
We should all just reach out and say, "Hey! It's been awhile. We should catch up!"
It can't be all that hard. Here, I'll go first.
Hey, Peanuts. It's been awhile. We should catch up.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteJust so you know that no matter how long it has been or how seemingly awkward it might be, you can just call. I do. I figure if we both really liked each other and we both really miss each other when we do have a moment for a phone call, we will just pick up from where we are and not dwell what we missed. Hopefully, the person really did like me as much as I liked them because then my dare I say harassing phone calls really might be awkward. And since I am not always good at subtle hints, someone would have to tell me not to call (not answering my messages is probably still too subtle! ha ha). Life can (does) get in the way, my hope is that those who think of me once in a blue moon know that I am thinking of them too.
