How should I start an e-mail to an old girlfriend (25 years ago) on Facebook?

[Daniel D]

I found an old girlfriend via facebook...and would just like to re-connect with her. I just dont know how or what to say to initiate the first contact.... I thought of something like "Hi xxxx
Hope all is well with you and your family. Wishing you a happy and healthy new year. God Bless. yyyy

Help!

[Veritas]

Go for it......

You can start out by that andsay do you rememeber me? how are you? I

Just be careful.What you say is a good starting point.

How about this: "I remember you fondly."

[Heaven]

I would say something like hey how are you i didnt know you had a facebook. This makes it seem like you just ran across her page instead of actually looking her up. Then you can ask to hang out and catch up since its been so long.

That sounds fine. Don't try too hard, she might take it the wrong way

just say something like
what a surprise to find you on here. hope all is well blah blah blah

Good luck

Are you already friends with her? If no, ask her to be your friend and soon after she accepts then just send a message saying hello, asking how she is doing and what she has been up to and say a little about yourself. Don't send anything too long, especially at first. Good luck!
