Have you ever been out of town and saw someone from your hometown by surprise?

Answer 1

Yes, and we agreed what happens in New Orleans, stays in New Orleans. Jazz fest 1991! Love, peace, and crawfish grease!

Answer 2

I have never seen anybody from my hometown here where I now live. I was always different. Most of the people I grew up around never ventured out of the state and now live next to mom and dad. That's not a bad thing, but I think its a bit boring. The only thing they know is what they see on TV....and TV is never accurate.

Answer 3

Yes, and isn't kind of funny how exciting that is? I mean, you could run into someone that you never really connect with in your hometown, but because you meet a familiar face in an unusual place, suddenly your share this amazing connection, almost like you're best buds.

Answer 4

what has this got to do with religion or spirtuality?

but yes back in 99/2000 i bumped in to an old girlfriend while helping a friend in another city.

i traveled from my town to the UK capital, and on the return journey i bumbed into the ex she was working for the coach/ bus company we were traveling on, she was just getting some supplies to transfer to her bus from ours.

a strange feeling. if i'd been on my own i'd have swapped bus and travelled with her to catch up on her life. as i still love and miss her, and think about her everyday.
but not wanting to get her into trouble i have not called the bus company since as i'm sure they would not pass on the message that i was wantiong to speak to her.

enough of my life.
has this ever happened to the asker?

Answer 5

yes, its scarey, even out of the country and saw some people from my hometown and i moved from there like 6 years ago.

Answer 6

Yes, Every year I go to bike week. And without fail I always see someone I know. Either a friend, neighbor, or my SISTER-IN-LAW. Keep in mind my SIL has no motorcycle and really doesn't have a reason to be there.

Answer 7

ALL the time. Mostly, though, I see students in weird places (I am a teacher). And they are grown up and I don't recognize them, but they recognize me. And I teach in a pretty rural place, but I've even seen some out of state!
