I have noticed that My ‘one that got away’ is now single (via Facebook).... we were together S teens.... had a dalliance in our 20’s, brief contact a couple of years ago but he then started a new relationship. He’s now single... I’m so tempted to message him..... do I???

thequeens if I had half of that with him it would literally make my life as embarrassing as it sounds.

666 I would be place marking myself! I have more wine, some crisps and my aunt gave ma box of hero’s to get through... to console myself with Grin

Thanks for the luck everyone.

You only live once, OP! Regrets/what ifs are the worst. Yes please to crisps and nuts. I am stress eating on your behalf Grin

Absolutely love these threads!! I just hope the message didn’t go into the hidden inbox folder I’m messenger. I discovered that today. Has it been read?
Anyway, good for you. Nothing to lose.

Place marking! Hope you get an answer OP!

Ouchmyheadhurts · 14/09/2019 19:27

What’s a hidden inbox?????

No it says delivered but not read.

I really wish I didn’t want this so bad. Really annoying.

I have never stopped thinking about him after all these years. I have this connection with him that Iv never ever had with anyone. Ever. Even he agreed.. he might have been lying of course Grin

I love these threads too! I keep checking back 🙂

My one that got away was the other way round- I'd deleted his number then a couple of months ago I got a text from him. Was quite a few people it could have been. 😂 I really wanted it to be this particular person and it was.

Sadly it's also not what I want it to be but that's a whole other thread. Sorry OP I don't want to derail yours! I'm desperate to know if you've had a reply! 😄

greyspottedgoose · 14/09/2019 19:31

Add him as a friend, he will definitely see your message request then! I was in your shoes 6 months ago (well, I wasn't brave enough to message first but I sent a friend request) it was like 7 years apart had never happened 😁

Shameless placemark. Had he read it yet?

Ouchmyheadhurts · 14/09/2019 19:33

Nooooo Sad still on delivered....

Ouchmyheadhurts · 14/09/2019 19:33

Someone please tell me what this hidden inbox is please?!?

OP posts:
Morgan12 · 14/09/2019 19:34

If your not friends on fb I don't think he will see the message will he? Does it not go to a seperate inbox?

Ouchmyheadhurts · 14/09/2019 19:35

I message pages I’m not friends with .... although they are business.... maybe that’s different.

We weren’t FB friends 2 years ago when we had contact?
