  • I ran into my fourth-grade best friend at UT a couple years ago. It was weird. She was friends with this guy I met through my feminist group. I went up to say hi to him as he was sitting in the Union with someone and when she looked up and we made eye contact we both recognized each other immediately and said hi. But we really couldn't find much to say to each other. Once we'd established that our respective families were doing OK and all that we lapsed into an uncomfortable silence. I got her phone number, but was too chicken to call and eventually lost it (and she probably changed phones anyway). It's too bad. We were so close when we were younger.
  • My best friend in kindergarten was a girl, I guess before the whole "When Harry Met Sally" rule against cross-gender best friendships kicked in. We lost touch in the first grade when she was in a different classroom. About 20 years or so later my sister claimed to have learned that my former best friend was working as a stripper and offered to put me in touch. I didn't know what that was supposed to accomplish beyond embarassing me and amusing my sister, so I declined.
