If you were in a room with everyone you’ve ever met (including strangers, and people you no longer talk too), who would you look for?

I would look for my old classmate Sarah, she was lovely. She loved chewing gum, and would always give me a piece.. we felt so naughty eating it in class but one day she came to school and told me that her family was moving and never said anything about it again and that was the last time I saw her, she never came back to school, nor did her sisters who were a few years old... I asked my dad to drive past her house once, and it was all cleared out (you could see it was empty because the curtains were gone too).

I just think about her every now and again, just wonder where she went and why.. we were only 6 or 7 and I really miss her still.

If it means people I haven't seen for some time, only my sister, really. I don't want to try reviving acquaintance with friends from years ago. As for people I've met very briefly, well, if King Charles and Terry Pratchett happened to be looking for conversation, that would be fine!

My first love ❤️ he was the one that got away

Was Sarah Irish?
I only ask because I also had a classmate called Sarah, who moved suddenly when I was 6 or 7.

To answer your question, I'd look for my ex. I'm happily married now, but my ex went through a difficult patch around the time we split up (unrelated), and I'd like to know if he got back on track and if he achieved the career goals he was dedicated to at the point we were together. I hope he has. He was very good at what he did.

My 1st girlfriend from 43 years ago and a girl called Lainey that I met on the Northern soul scene about 36 years ago,I often wonder how she fared in life.

I'd be having a family reunion with my grandparents, mum, aunt, sister and our kids.

Extremely long shot here - not a blonde called Elaine Harris, by any chance? There's a soul DJ (and jewellery designer) called Lainey Saunders, her married name. She's on Facebook.

Thank you, unfortunately not,her name was Lorraine and she was brunette....but many thanks for taking the time to reply.

Both my parents died within a few months of each other in 2020 so I'd look for them. To my mum I would give her the hug that I couldn't give her when she was alone in hospital. I'd ask my dad what it was that made him smile just before he took his last breath.

Absolutely my mam... 100%. Miss her so much!

I would say my mum - but she would probably be so busy doing her social duty I probably wouldn't get to speak to her. Otherwise... My DH always. My best friend and my love.

The way out.
