Would it seem weird..

If someone you met a few years ago tracked you down.. heres the brief story

There was a woman that was interested in me a few years ago.. I was in a relationship at the time but I didnt say anything about it, I just kept my distance. I was very impessed by the few conversations we did have and never forgot about her. The relationship I was in has been on and off but its finally over and done. I'm not looking to jump into another relationship but I would like to contact this person and I found her number in the phone book so.. would it be awkward for someone to just call out of the blue after a couple of years later?

If you didn't stop talking to each other on bad terms, I would think not. You mentioned to have found her name in the phone book, so I assume there may be a probability she isn't married. Give her a call. Keep it light and noncommittal and she where it goes. I was once involved with someone who I had not had contact with for several years. Originally she and I expressed an interest in each other but for various reasons were unable to pursue it. After making contact with each other after several years we had a few awkward moments, but soon felt very comfortable with each other.

Go for it. And good luck.

Terry

About 3 years, actually she expressed the interest and I blew it off. I was installing phone lines in her house and she wanted to take me to lunch but I declined.. she called a couple of times after that (left my card in case the lines went down) but I kept declining cause of my situation, she probably thought I was just turning her down.

Obviously you have to call her... not calling her is less interesting to us.

Go for it. You can always just meet for coffee or do something mellow and pressure-free. Instead of saying you looked her up in the phone book I might suggest saying you were cleaning up your place and ran across her number on a slip of paper, or switched to a new cell phone and were copying over your old contacts, etc. Seems less threatening. Above all just play it cool. She was the one who was initially intersted in you after all. At the very worst if she is already in a relationship, you have a new female friend who may in turn have hot single female friends. Good luck and keep us posted

Havent really talked to her since we broke up.. guess she decided to go with the married 40 year old with 3 kids.

As for this situation.. I called monday but didnt get an answer, I did leave a message but I doubt I'd call again if she does not call back.

What makes you think she would call back? We r on Thursday goin on Friday already. You didnt leave a message, you dont know if she has caller ID, and how many people would call back a number they dont know? Most people I know just ignore them and say "if its important they'll call back"

Good idea... stalk her and then lie to her!



I'm kidding, that actually is a really good idea and exactly what I would do in this situation.

Stop by her house and tell her you thought you left your "tool" there. Ask her if she's seen it and while she's looking around the house, drop your shorts and say "Oh here it is"

Oh well. You didn't have anything invested in her anyways. You took a shot, and it didn't work out for you. No big loss if you ask me.

She might be on vacation for as long as - even two weeks. It's August, and half the country is trying to go somewhere cool..... and few folks routinely check their home voicemail, and even if she did, she might wait until she returns to respond. I'd give it a week more at least before assuming this is a dead end.
