u/Senior_Mittens 9d ago

That’s for sure, I’ve ran into people I know on vacation once and even when I took a flight to a whole different state. Like, what the HELL are you doing here? What am I doing here. The world may never know.

u/thesupplyguy1 9d ago

I was a year behind you... like damn i have no clue who you are but i apparently made an impression on you

u/Otherwise_Avocado_31 9d ago

Same, I was in the Navy on deployment in Greece on the island of Crete and ran into someone on the beach I knew in high school. I went to high school in Blackfoot Idaho my graduating class was only 165 people.

Remember being a kid (12yo odd) and going on holiday. Met some other kid (we'll call him Ryan) and got on with him. Went home, randomly found my way onto some AOL-esque chatroom and found someone - we'll call him Ryan - talking about the holiday he just got home from. Sounded REAL familiar.

Travelled from Ireland to Vietnam. Met a cousin of my neighbour who I played with often as a kid

Maybe its easier to spot the pale irish dude amongst vietnamese people but still!

Similar to me, ...re-invented myself found new life & began having new problems , life was good, then the universe brings the only person I thought would be the last, to be my neighbor Turns out, their life had caught up & they needed somewhere to breathe Only to find the best prey & a town to impress with the sins of the past
