What should I do, would you do in this situation?

Years ago, I met someone who turned my world around. Even though he told me he was married at the time, I still fell for him, and we became friends. When he left to go to college, he broke my heart. Although I knew there was no chance we would be together, I cried when he left.

NOW for the delima. Recently, I found out that he lives not more than 30 miles from where I live. the bad thing is I still have feelings for him even though I am married, I still care for him, and remember the days of 25 years ago all too well. I know how to contact him, but I am not sure that I would actually get a message through to him. It may go to a receptionist or someone else in his office. He owns his own business.

What should I do? Should I try to contact him? Or should I just live with the memory and leave it alone. I don't want to get a relationship started with him, I just want to be friends with him like we were before.

Please give me some advice. He is driving me crazy. I think sometimes if I could just see him and hug him, I would know if all the old feelings were coming back or if it is just the memory that I am holding on to.

Update:

Ok, I did not have a sexual relationship with this friend. we were just friends seeing each other only at work. Yes, the night he told me he was leaving and i would not see him again, it hurt. but what hurt worse was him telling me he was married. we were casual at work friends for more than a year or two. NOTHING sexual about the relationship. just talking and flirting.

    Ok, here's the deal. You should consider this guy off limits. It doesn't matter how you feel for him. How do you feel for your husband? You say you just want to be friends with this guy, but the way you are talking, if he said let's go you would get right on. Also, would you even let your husband know about this guy if you did become friends. If you cannot help yourself and you go ahead and meet the guy and you two fall in love then do your husband a favor and divorce him before you cheat on him. I'm sure he probably loves you a great deal and would not see it coming. In short, do not commit ADULTERY.

    As hard as this might be to hear....it will never be like it was before. Leave the past in the past. You will always have the memories. It is not worth all of the potential drama to dig up old feelings. Move on.

    If your still in love with him you need to talk to him. I wouldn't tell him right away that you love him but i would contact him and ask him to go out (as friends) and become friends again before you tell hom how you feel
