I used to date a girl in university. I felt quite strongly about her then, as is the case with most university romances. As of now I am well settled with a wife and two kids and am quite happy where I am. Recently I found out that she has been diagnosed with leukemia. I always thought she was the one that got away. She's married now with three children but I cannot help but miss her and find myself wondering about her. Should I reach out to her or at least ask her how she is doing?
No, please do not complicate your life and hers. It has been years that you've been married and have three children. Do you really think it's worth the complication? Perhaps you feel this way since she has leukemia and you feel guilty. For the sake of yourself and your family, it's better to steer clear from rekindling old relations. It seems as if you two moved on with your lives and did so happily. What is the underlying behind this new found desire? If you must reach out to her, send her a card wishing her well but let that be it.
