yes i propably would accept just to find out why they wanted to meet after all the years

Depending on how much of a friend they were at school I wouldn't see a problem but if it was more abundantly clear it was just to gloat about their success I would have to decline.

My theory is we all manage to lose contact with people that we shouldn't but lives take us in mysterious ways and sometimes it is just nice to cross paths once again.

Yes, very probably, if only for the sake of curiosity.

Yes if they used to be a friend, if they were the school bully it would be a different story!

I met up with someone i went to primary school with a few years ago, we still keep in touch and try to meet up once or twice a year (she lives the other end of the country)

Yeah i would too, It would be quite good to see where all my mates are now.

Sure... Why not?

Probably, but it would depend on how good a friend they used to be.

There are quite a lot of people I went to school with that I would NOT like to meet again - one of the reasons I don't bother with sites like facebook, myspace or friendsreunited.

Yes, I have done so.
We were not that close friends at school but it was nice to meet up. We still keep in touch occasionally and remember things we thought we'd forgotten.
There are a few peo[le from school I wouldn't want to meet up with, though, and one in particular that I'd love to meet - to ask her if she ever suffered from a guilty conscience about the way she unmercilessly bullied me.
Yes, I'd love to meet her!

as i only really had one friend in primary school, and we've been out of contact for about a decade... um, yeah, why not.

loads has happened, it's be good to catch up.

Wasnt at school long so no real friends. But in the kids homes/foster homes.
I would love to know how their lives panned out for them, we all had 1 thing in common and it be nice to see how much they have changed and if they bettered themselves. So yes it would be nice to see them if they ever got in contact. But as wumpus put i dont use facebook or any other site for reunited. so i guess i never know.
In saying that tho, (as long as your were friends back then.) I be very flattered that they went to great lengths to find you. :0)

Absolutely; and I have had that experience, several times.

Throughout my life, people from the past have cropped up numerous times, some from ten years earlier, some from 20 or 30 years earlier, an da few from childhood. I always find it fascinating to make the re-acquaintance, and see our our lives have differed in the interim.

depends on who they were. However, you may want to ask yourself if they were that important to you then why did you lose contact in the first place?

I havent seen any of my school colleagues in about 4 decades, probably because we all moved out of the town in different directions.

Every time I visit the town of my birth I end up bumping into someone I havent seen in 30 years, perhaps I should just visit more.

yes i would cause nosiness would get the better of me. Only person I want to meet again doesn't live in the uk so it is unlikely we shall ever cross paths again.

I would say YES if you were good friends but in a public familiar place.. you can never be too safe..

If they used to be a good friend and i felt i wanted see them again,Then yes i defiently would.
On the other hand if it was say an old flame that you really loved and it would say cause you problems at home with the other half then probably not.

Sure why not? Unless we were not on amicable terms when we last knew each other, I don't see a problem doing this. I have run into a lot of people from my past, even one's that I had issues with, and usually they are over any grudge that you had when you were younger. For a female meeting a male, I would highly recommend a public setting to meet. You never know anymore! There are some sick people in this world so just be careful. For a strapping mountain of manhood such as yourself spangle, meet away my friend!
