Um wierd. Very weird....

OK, for the first timein over a month I checked my PMs on the site...and uh.. I was contacted...twice in the last month. by an Ex from HIGH SCHOOL!!! OVER 4 YEARS AGO!!! I dont know HOW SHE FOUND ME!!!! It is just weird I mean, what are the chances of someone going to a site. a very specific one at that. And somehow stumble across your email addy..and say hmm hey I know you. (I did not get my nickname until almost a year out of high school, after the last time I saw her)

Just ACK weird

Would she know someone who knows you hang out here? Classmates.com? I found a girl from h.s. on classmates. I even ran accross a couple people by accident. It happens......but certainly is something to make you think.
Since you have a pic on your profile......it could be a coincidence that her or someone else found you by accident.
Its all good......unless her maternity lawyer found you.

This gal was cute, but I am in a serious relationship right now.....that is having serious problems....but still a serious relationship. I would hardly be willing to go chase after an ex being in a 3 year relationship right now iwth a wonderful, if slightly misguided young lady.

ok upon further investigation, she said that she did a search for me on the internet, and came up with this site.

Now she must have REALLY searched. searching JUST Jimmy Dean, nothing on me. search using my real name got one hit on my dad, nothing on me. search cross referancing Jimmy dean and my first and last, nothing on me, same hit on my dad. referance crossing Jimmy Dean and Ford, indirect hit to this forum, not to my name or one of my post inparticular, just the 4.2 V6 board. and that was on a page 3 only GOOd hit I got on me was cross referanceing my last name and Jimmy Dean only, got a hit to this board on the 7TH PAGE! sorry, but when searching for people I never go past the 3rd or 4th page :P She musta REALLY been looking.

To me it would not seem to be a good idea to post about something like this in an open forum...

In the long run, who cares. As John Maynard Keynes said "In the long run, we are all dead".

I would say identity theft would be the concern. Kinda leaving a trail of bread crumbs there maybe.
Myabe if you asked, and it he thinks a good idea........Eric might delete your post. If he or any of the Admins here say your post is not in your best interest......I'd go with it.

I think its just about how you explained how she tracked you down and found you.
Helps other people cruising thru follow the same trail. I wouldnt worry too much over it either....but it was close. I've been known to be wrong in the past.
