Woman reunites with childhood friend after 11 years apart
A woman in the UK found her childhood friend again 11 years after they lost contact.
Meeting at an ice-skating party
The two women first met when they were nine years old at a social gathering. They held hands and talked easily despite the author's nervousness about skating. Their conversation skipped standard greetings because they had so much to say.
Shared interests in school
The pair attended the same high school together during their teenage years. They developed mutual crushes on Orlando Bloom and studied Romeo + Juliet in class. Both women enjoyed reading and were interested in romantic fantasy stories before it became popular.
Reconnecting after a long gap
The author spent 11 years without seeing her friend before finding them again. The process of getting back in touch was described as staggeringly simple. They had known each other for almost two-thirds of the author's life by that point.
