Lockdown and reconnecting

Had anyone reconnected with old friends or ex’s during lockdown?

I live by myself but am a key worker, going to work as normal. So apart from social distancing / restrictions my life is carrying in as normal. However I have had quiet a few people, mostly living alone reach out for chats. These people are the ones who I have just simply lost contact with. Friends what you were at a different stage in life. Sort of life moves in different ways and before you know it, haven’t spoke in a few years.

It’s nice to have a catch up and of course promises of meeting again when this is all over. One person is my ex who I split up with a few months ago; wasn’t horrible break up. We have started talking each day. Sort of wealth fare check. Now turned into chatting as we were going out. Again promises of meeting up. Problem was he was all talks d no action. I got full attention if he was bored, but something else came along I got ignored. It was always felt he thought grass was greener.

Do you think it’s more boredom and empty promises. It’s nice to reconnect and is peope to talk to Anyone else had this?

Yep - loads of my ex's have text me. I didn't reply to the ones who are now in relationships. In my experience it's mostly men. Men who are really bored. I spoke to all my female friends this regularly anyway.
