Keeping in touch with teenage boyfriend

No

Don’t think my husband would be too happy.
No.

Crikey if someone was playing sweet sixteen to remember me by they are going to get the shock of their lives if they meet me now.

If you’re both single now, no problem but it could lead to difficulties within a marriage.

My friend has done this and gotten away with it so far but it would end in tears if her husband/his wife found out.

It doesn’t sound poignant to me, it sounds like an emotional affair.

Hmmm, if people start wanting to live in the past, it is usually because they are not happy with the present. They would be better off spending their time sorting that out.

He says he has always loved me and it is all rather poignant.

I wonder how many other of his teenage girlfriends he is spinning that spiel to - and how disloyal to his wife, and if he is divorced, was it for being unfaithful?

Hmm no. Sixteen is a long time ago ? and I'd rather live for today.

Good for you Molly, it obviously makes you both happy.

Not sure I need or want to be reunited with my old boy friends, but that's just me. I am still happy and prefer Mr LullyDully.

Oh dear what a moralising lot you are! I have done absolutely nothing wrong.

Are you single Molly? Is he?

I like the way everyone assumes I am married!!No more comments please!

Ditto!

I think it's sweet. Have you watched Last Tango in Halifax?
If you are both romantically free, and there is an old spark, why not try to see if it can spark a flame?

If you're both free then it's fine. If not, it's trouble.

Can't see the problem as long as no one is getting hurt. It obviously brings a little joy into both your lives.

No. There was a reason why we split and he’s probably still a two-faced lying philanderer

Galaxy, any teenage boyfriend would remember me as slim with long dark hair and miniskirts. Now I'm misshapen with thin hair and old clothes. So I'd say leave the past where it is.

Don't forget they will have changed too Skydancer, possibly bald with a paunch!

I'm the one who is bald, with a paunch these days.

Wouldn’t it be mortifying to find they were now a silver fox?!

If I feel cross with DH for any reason and my mind wanders to what an ex might be like now, I always think 'there was a reason why we never got married!'

If he's always loved you Molly there must be a reason why you ditched him

I am "friends" on Facebook with my childhood sweetheart and one time nextdoor neighbour. We were about 14 I guess when his family moved away. We ended up at the same university town and met up a couple of times . He DJd at my 21st, he had long hair. Now we are both in our mid(ish) 60s and he is bald and I am overweight. We are both happily married and grandparents. I am happy to keep things a key board and computer screen apart!!
