Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 20/10/2015 (4003 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I literally left my heart in San Francisco in the 1970s when I came home to Canada and married Mr. Second Best. We divorced a few years later and I married another Canadian farm boy when I was 35, and it ended in divorce. I always dreamed of my true love in San Francisco. Once in a while I’d check for him on Facebook.
This morning, I saw he had joined Facebook and asked me to be his friend. I jumped at the chance and maybe said too much, but he’s free and so am I. I told him I’d dreamed about him all my life. He said the same! Now he wants to fly up and see me. I said that would be great. But, we really don’t know each other anymore. How do we fill in all those blanks?
— Old Hippie Girl, Winnipeg
Dear Hippie Girl: Imagine you ran into him on a cruise ship and suddenly had to face him directly. What would you do? You would probably go to the bar, or find two secluded seats on the deck, and settle in to trade stories about your lives and talk about old times. If he was single, you’d be kissing on the first day because you don’t feel like strangers. You had something close and important a long time ago.
So here’s the next best thing to the cruise-ship meeting: talk on the phone first, which is more private and intimate than Skype in the first stage. Then add Skype and the visuals. There has to be a physical connection if you’re going to meet in person. Then make an arrangement to meet at a resort in the middle, where it’s OK if things don’t go as you imagined. Have seven days booked off to spend there, but reserve your own rooms for a few days and ensure your reservations could be altered if you want to stay. You could move into the same room, or extend your stay. After that, things may be on fire again, or you may not want to see each other. But, take the chance and find out!
