Do you think reaching out to someone from the past is a bad idea?

[Anonymous]

Especially if you’re not sure if they remember you well

[madhatters4]

not necessarily a bad idea but it does matter what your point in reaching out is. are you hoping to spark something. do you just want to re-engage a friendship

i don't think it's a bad idea but i temper your expectations

[Asker]

Can I dm you?

[madhatters4]

"Be careful, Chief. You dig up the past, all you get is dirty."

[Asker]

Can I do you I’d like to explain the situation

[abc3643]

Sure, go ahead. I just did it last week.

[Asker]

I meant dm. Sorry now I’m uncomfortable I can’t message

[abc3643]

You can DM me sure although you may need to be at a certain level to.

[Anemone978]

If it is a romantic reason then yes, it is probably a bad idea lol

[ArrowheadSW]

I've done it before. I think it is usually fine. What is your interest in doing this? Just to re-connect with an old friend, or romantic interest?

[ProbablyClueless]

Depends on the reason you're trying to reach out, but there probably isn't anything wrong with doing that, in general.

[Asker]

Can I dm you?

[ProbablyClueless]

Sure =)

[provokeesmokee]

Nah, go for it if you feel like it. Worst case nothing comes of it.

[Simslover92]

Yes I think so especially if it was a friends with benefits situation.

[Blueeyes81]

To me the past is exactly that, the past. If someone is no longer in my life there is a reason, either from my or their side.

[Asker]

Can I message you? I dm'd you.

[In_Trance]

Terrible idea

[OfDeath]

You'll freak them right out. It might also change the future.

[_lexiesplanet_]

depends on why you haven't spoke for a while if it was not a bad reason then yh lol

[pickles77]

Might not be a bad idea just don’t put to many’s expectations on it

[shades777]

nothing TOO think about... either do it or don't do it

[OneTrueYou]

No, not unless you are in a committed or married relationship and you are reaching out to them for something other than a business matter.

[Anonymous]

Not a bad idea but it would be bad idea if you had a crush on them in the past.

[Asker]

Can I message you? I dm'd you.

[Opinion Owner]

[ChicoFromThe305]

[Asker]

Can I message you? I dm'd you.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Alright I changed it, I don't recall ever putting that setting on, I never had anything private

[Asker]

Okay sorry I am having some technical issues on my end with this app

[sheikalana]

It is a bad idea.

[crystalline0909]

Totally dumb idea. It never works. Go on.
