Should I reconnect with an old flame?
I am a middle-aged attractive woman and I have a friend I have known for years. I have known him since I was about 19 or 20 years old and we dated briefly when I was that age. We both ended up marrying others and having children. We are both now divorced and we are both now single and in our 50's. We lost touch for a while but now we got in touch again on Facebook.
He asked me to go to dinner and I feel very reluctant because so many years have passed that I would feel awkward now. Also, my family and his family all know each other so it would feel awkward for me if something happened between us. I told him I would think about it but he became insulted and said I have known him long and asked why I would hesitate. I am puzzled as to why he would ask after such a long time. Is it rude of me to say that it would feel awkward for me?
