Should I, shouldn't I?

I recently connected with an old school friend, when we were in school we both had a very big crush on each other, nothing every cake of it because we were both super geeky & never told the other person how we felt.

Now that we're grown, we're reconnecting and after much talk tonight we finally said how we felt back then. We both admitted we still are crushing on each other and there are feelings there.

I don't know if it's the nostalgia or if the feelings that we feel are actually real and genuine. I know we're both single adults and can meet freely if we please. I'm just looking to see if anyone else has been in this boat & can offer a little insight into connecting with old crushes.

We live miles apart. The relationship (if it got to that) would be long distance and there are kids involved. Both mine & his.

I would like to think that reconnecting after many years is possible a sign that we weren't ready then but might be now. But I've always been under the impression that Long distance doesn't work, I've tried in the past with other people and I feel that eventually one half stops making as much effort as the other and the whole thing falls to pieces.

What are other people's views on long distance relationships? Can they work? Can you reconnect with a school crush?

DH and I were a long distance (very very long distance) and it worked. I moved in the end. With kids that is much more complicated.

It is probably nostalgia but it couldn`t hurt to see.
