<\/p>\n
Una de las primeras razones por las que su buen amigo<\/a> contacted you all of a sudden could be nostalgia. Maybe you got a friend request on social media or a text message from them \u2013 it doesn\u2019t really matter.<\/p>\n The bottom line is that you two share some beautiful memories together. Even though you don\u2019t know it, they think of these times frequently.<\/p>\n They sincerely hope that you haven\u2019t forgotten about them either. They hope that you remember all the fun you two had.<\/b><\/p>\n This is especially true if we\u2019re talking about a high school or childhood friend. Years have passed since you two spent time together.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, you were close friends once. And you\u2019re probably the only thing connecting this person to the good old days. So, they just want to talk about the past and reminisce.<\/p>\n Have you ever been in a situation when an ex who broke your heart and hurt you in the worst possible way tries to crawl back into your life ages after the break-up? I mean, of course, you have, it\u2019s what always happens.<\/p>\n Why? Well, it\u2019s because they realize what they\u2019ve lost only after you\u2019re gone. And that\u2019s exactly what happened to that best friend who did you harm.<\/p>\n They\u2019ve spent years looking for you. They were convinced that finding a friend like you would be a piece of cake.<\/p>\n A lot of people will welcome them with open arms \u2013 they will give them the love, comfort, and devotion you offered.<\/p>\n Pero mala suerte, nada de eso ocurri\u00f3. Pasaron toda una eternidad busc\u00e1ndote s\u00f3lo para darse cuenta de que no estabas en ninguna parte.<\/b><\/p>\n Y ahora, quieren volver a los viejos tiempos. Tu ex amigo quiere continuar exactamente donde lo dejasteis como si nada hubiera pasado porque te ve como su amigo del alma<\/a>.<\/p>\n Bueno, si yo fuera t\u00fa, simplemente les desear\u00eda <\/b>Suerte<\/b> with that. Why didn\u2019t they appreciate you while you were around?<\/b><\/p>\n On the other hand, there are people who know that they\u2019ve made a mistake and feel guilty about it. So, when an viejo amigo<\/a> se pone en contacto contigo de repente, puede que sea porque quiere disculparse.<\/p>\n There is no desire for reconnecting here. Maybe they just want to meet up to tell you that they\u2019re sorry or to gracias por todo<\/a>.<\/p>\n Why does it matter now? Well, they\u2019ve obviously grown as a person. They\u2019re probably replaying their entire life back and forth in their head, and they\u2019ve realized they treated you wrong.<\/p>\n B\u00e1sicamente, quieren desahogarse. Necesitan tu perd\u00f3n para seguir adelante y limpiar su conciencia.<\/b><\/p>\n O tal vez alguien se lo hizo pasar mal. Quiz\u00e1 se pusieron en tu lugar, lo que les hizo comprender tu punto de vista.<\/p>\n In that case, if you are able to forgive them, don\u2019t torture them anymore. Tell them that you accept their apology and move on with your life.<\/p>\n When an old friend contacts you out of the blue, they\u2019ve probably changed a lot. They’re not the same person they were the first time your friendship ended.<\/p>\n I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard the phrase \u201cright person, wrong time.\u201d Even though most people connect this line with romantic love, it can be applied to friendship as well.<\/p>\n Su <\/b>antiguo amigo<\/b> es consciente de <\/b>tus cualidades<\/b><\/a>. They know that you\u2019re someone they want to spend time with.<\/b><\/p>\n But when you first used to hang out, you were too immature to realize the true meaning of friendship. Luckily, now, you\u2019ve both grown, and that has changed.<\/p>\n It means that it\u2019s time for a second chance. Besides, you two didn\u2019t end your friendship on bad terms. You didn\u2019t have a major fallout \u2013 you just lost touch.<\/p>\n There were no insults, no backstabbing, or anything like that. You drifted apart because you didn\u2019t appreciate each other, and that\u2019s all.<\/p>\n Or maybe they\u2019ve remained exactly the same person they were in the past. Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 I\u2019m not claiming that they haven\u2019t made any progress whatsoever.<\/p>\n But at the end of the day, they\u2019re not the person they were last month or even last year. Deep down, they\u2019re still the person they were when you two <\/b>eran <\/b>mejores amigos<\/b><\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n This means that you\u2019re the only one who knows the essence of their being. They\u2019ve tried spending time with new friends, but each one of them was missing something.<\/p>\n They were all interested in this new version of themselves while you\u2019re the only one who accepted them truly for who they are.<\/p>\n Are they interested in reconnecting? Without a doubt, yes. You have to be aware that this person doesn\u2019t only see you as their friend. To them, you\u2019re a family member!<\/p>\n They haven\u2019t called you in ages, and truth be told, you haven\u2019t even crossed their mind all of this time. But recently, they saw a mutual friend or coworker who mentioned you.<\/p>\n O escucharon tu canci\u00f3n favorita. Tal vez se encontraron con alguien que se parec\u00eda a ti.<\/p>\n Whatever happened, the bottom line is that your entire friendship went through their mind. They\u2019ve had a major flashback, and they remembered you.<\/b><\/p>\n But the point is that they kept thinking of you for days after something or someone reminded them of you. And that\u2019s when they knew they had to reach out to you, no matter what! Of course, that\u2019s exactly what they did.<\/p>\n At the end of the day, they don\u2019t know what they want from you. \u00bfEs una oportunidad para reconectar?<\/b><\/p>\n \u00bfQuieres <\/b>reunirse<\/b> el <\/b>d\u00eda siguiente<\/b> para ponerse al d\u00eda sobre los viejos tiempos? \u00bfConstruir\u00e1s un <\/b>amistad a distancia<\/b><\/a>? Who knows \u2013 all options are on the table.<\/b><\/p>\n Cuando romper una relaci\u00f3n duradera<\/a>, it\u2019s natural that you want to know why it happened. When did things start going downhill?<\/p>\n \u00bfFue algo que hiciste t\u00fa? \u00bfPodr\u00edas haber hecho algo para evitar el fin de vuestra relaci\u00f3n? \u00bfSucedi\u00f3 algo en particular que <\/i>\u00faltima vez<\/i> que os visteis que les hizo apartarte de su vida?<\/i><\/p>\n No, these questions don\u2019t only apply to romantic relationships. The same goes with friendships as well. After all, it\u2019s also a type of relationship, and there is nothing wrong with wanting closure.<\/p>\n Bueno, cuando <\/b>un viejo amigo contacta<\/b> usted <\/b>sin avisar<\/b>, that\u2019s exactly what they\u2019re looking for. Maybe they don\u2019t plan on coming back into your life.<\/b><\/p>\n Al contrario, s\u00f3lo quieren poner fin a ese cap\u00edtulo de su vida para poder empezar de nuevo.<\/p>\n Obviously, everything that happened between you two left a big influence on their life. And if they ask you for closure, give it to them \u2013 that would be the only fair thing to do.<\/p>\n When an old friend contacts you out of the blue, you immediately assume that there is something huge or secretive hidden behind it. But the truth is that things don\u2019t have to be so complicated.<\/p>\n Maybe they\u2019re not here to ask for a kidney or gossip about your <\/b>amigos comunes<\/b>. Tal vez su <\/b>antiguo amigo<\/b> s\u00f3lo quiere charlar.<\/b><\/p>\n Of course, this is possible only if you two didn\u2019t have a huge <\/b>fallout<\/b> and just lost touch over time. You didn\u2019t have a big fight, and nobody hurt anyone.<\/b><\/p>\n So, why wouldn’t they want to see what you\u2019ve been up to? I won\u2019t say that they necessarily miss you, but you\u2019ve definitely crossed their mind, and they just wanted to see if there is anything new going on in your life.<\/p>\n Or they were just bored and had nothing better to do. Either way, you don\u2019t have to look too deep into it.<\/p>\n When an old friend contacts you out of the blue, they might be asking for help. I don\u2019t know if we\u2019re hablando de una mala ruptura<\/a>una emergencia familiar, un problema de salud mental o algo completamente distinto.<\/p>\n La cuesti\u00f3n es que te ven como su \u00faltima oportunidad de salvaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n Look, they won\u2019t tell you they need a hand straight away. Instead, they\u2019ll just ask you to meet up, and if you\u2019re willing to see them, they might open up.<\/p>\n Why did they think of you, you must ask? After all, you can\u2019t remember when the last time you talked was, and you\u2019re sure that they\u2019ve found new friends in the meantime.<\/p>\n Well, I guess that you\u2019re still the only one they trust, no matter what. The only one who will estar a su lado en todo<\/a>, understand them, and won\u2019t leave them when they need someone the most.<\/p>\n It\u2019s apparent that you two have an unbreakable bond. They see you as their alma gemela plat\u00f3nica<\/a> y socio criminal<\/a>.<\/p>\n They can have alot of close friends, but you\u2019re their la \u00fanica y mejor amiga<\/a>!<\/p>\n I get it that you\u2019re facing a serious dilemma. On the one hand, you feel like they\u2019re using you.<\/p>\n Todos los dem\u00e1s los dejaron atr\u00e1s, as\u00ed que ahora pensaron en ti. \u00bfD\u00f3nde estaban todo este tiempo?<\/p>\n But if you look at things from a different perspective, you should actually be honored. They could have asked for anyone\u2019s help, but they chose you! If that doesn\u2019t make you feel special, I don\u2019t know what does.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve given your former friend the benefit of the doubt until now. But this is the moment when we have to tackle what you don\u2019t want to hear as well.<\/p>\n Yes, it\u2019s possible that they need a favor and nothing else. Maybe they want you to lend them money, take care of their kids, drive them somewhere, give your recommendation on something…<\/b><\/p>\n Los ejemplos son interminables, pero cuando un viejo amigo se pone en contacto contigo de la nada, \u00e9ste es uno de los motivos m\u00e1s comunes.<\/p>\n If you are in this kind of situation, don’t feel responsible to help them.<\/b><\/p>\n Were they ever around to give you a hand? Did they ever ask you how you\u2019ve been?<\/p>\n They have no shame and no dignity, and they don\u2019t deserve a response from you, let alone anything more.<\/p>\n Quiero decir, \u00bfqu\u00e9 eres? \u00bfBuena voluntad? \u00bfUna sala de emergencias?<\/p>\n La cruda verdad es que esta persona arruin\u00f3 tu salud mental. Esto siempre ha sido una amistad unilateral, y nunca fueron tus amigo de verdad<\/a>.<\/p>\n Su <\/b>amigo t\u00f3xico<\/b><\/a> te intimidaron y destruyeron tu autoestima. Ellos <\/b>nunca te respet\u00e9<\/b><\/a> o <\/b>te trat\u00f3 como a su mejor amigo<\/b><\/a>. Sufriste abusos emocionales por su parte, y todo lo que te hicieron dej\u00f3 huellas en tu coraz\u00f3n y en tu alma.<\/b><\/p>\n La verdad es que has tardado demasiado en superar todo esto, y mucho menos en encontrar nuevos amigos.<\/p>\n Y justo cuando te acercabas al final de tu viaje de curaci\u00f3n, reaparecieron en tu vida.<\/p>\n \u00bfSe arrepienten de todo? \u00bfEst\u00e1n aqu\u00ed porque quieren disculparse? Siento dec\u00edrtelo, pero no.<\/b><\/p>\n You\u2019re dealing with an abuser who thinks of you as a suitable victim \u2013 nothing more!<\/b><\/p>\n When an old friend contacts you out of the blue, they might be involved in MLM (multi-level marketing) or a pyramid scheme. I know you\u2019ve seen alot of memes and jokes regarding this topic, but trust me \u2013 we\u2019ll all get a similar phone call one of these days.<\/p>\n I have to admit, this is a tough situation. On the one hand, you don\u2019t want to waste your time listening to their nonsense.<\/b><\/p>\n But at the same time, we\u2019re talking about someone you\u2019ve been so close to. You can\u2019t just hang up on them.<\/b><\/p>\n The best thing to do is to be as polite as possible. But don\u2019t forget to be firm at the same time because trust me, they will use your vulnerabilities against you.<\/p>\n Just tell them that you\u2019re busy and that you\u2019ll call them the next day. Let\u2019s face it \u2013 you won\u2019t, but do you have any other option at this point?<\/p>\n Si tiene algo que decirles, no hay nada malo en ponerse en contacto con ellos. <\/b>un viejo amigo<\/b>. Sin embargo, hay que encontrar la mejor manera de hacerlo.<\/b><\/p>\n If you haven\u2019t talked to each other in a long time, maybe it\u2019s better to send them a text message or friend request before calling them out of the blue.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a list of phrases to say when you hear from a long-<\/b>amigo perdido<\/b>.<\/b><\/p>\n 1. \u201cHey, what\u2019s up?\u201d<\/p>\n 2. \u201cI\u2019ve been just thinking about you.\u201d<\/p>\n 3. \u201cLong time no see.\u201d<\/p>\n2. They\u2019ve realized you\u2019re nowhere to be found<\/h3>\n
3. Quieren disculparse<\/h3>\n
4. They\u2019ve changed<\/h3>\n
