I reached out to this person before I married my 3rd wife. We grew up near each other and were the only two in our class to go from 1st grade to 12th. I knew her brother better and used to play at their house by the cemetery. She reached out to me on FB after my divorce but that was not the reason Im sure. She has had a very interesting and tragic life.
She was the oldest of 5 children and had to do most of the housework growing up. Her mother (93) is still alive and she looks after her along with another sibling. We txt each day with greetings in the morning, during the day and then goodnight. She is smart, very funny and extremely talented artist. But she never got any pension or 401k and lives on meager SS. She says she has bad teeth and I know she is embarrassed by her trailer.
She lives near my brother in our old home town. She doesn't want to talk on the phone but says we might one day. She has sent long emails just on her phone. She has told me very personal events in her life. She lost her true love to a heart attack and it still hurts her 8 yrs later. Her life is a financial struggle I know. I love her stories about our home town because we knew all those people. Her life has been MUCH different than mine. I do not push to talk on the phone at all now. I just chat with her on texts. I just love being her friend and she knows it. She sees all my friends on FB and how I interact with them.
I have never had a friendship/relationship like this. I wish I had know what she was like in HS. She is so smart. She and I always were last ones up in our class spelling bees. The problem was she was extremely shy in school and never said a word. So she naivelty entered a terrible marriage early and struggles for many years. Anyone seen this kind of connection?
