I know exactly what you mean - I so wanted to "out grow" fooling around with guys since I did not want to catch anything. And right at the time I started to get comfortable with the idea of anal sex the news starts saying that is how it is spread - and that scared me farther back into the closet.

It is funny when you find them. You know they remember as well - but you can't message them "Hi. Remember me? We used to blow each other at summer camp."
But I found one guy who I was SURE was going to be gay - and he was living in San Francisco - which I took to be proof as everyone knows there are no heterosexuals in San Fran!
And there he is with his wife and kids! I know that does not mean he is completely straight - but still surprised the hell out of me.

It really is fun. So much time has passed you would never have enough in common to call / visit - but it is great to just get an idea what became of them through FB.
In that sense I envy the kids in college today - they get a school e-mail address they will have for life - and years later they can contact someone and just say "hi".
