Okay, shortened version: I was once close friends with someone. Life and circumstances being what they were at that time in my life, we grew apart and haven't had contact in years. I recently reached out to this old-friend with an interest in keeping in touch and possibly rekindling our friendship now. While I'm happy about this, there is one problem. She is most likely still in contact with someone else from my past who I lived in fear of for a long time. Someone who I do not want to know anything about me or my whereabouts, as this could pose problems for my family. So, how do I go about talking with this old-friend and updating each other on our lives over the years, without letting her know important info about me that could get back to this other person? I realize that NOT TELLING is the best way, but I don't want to offend her by saying - I can't tell you cuz it could get back to that person, as this could surely squelch any changes we have of being friends again. Any ideas?

Yes, I actually contacted her by email which is how we are communicating. I've had the same email address for many years so I'm not worried about that part. It's more the: so where are you living, working, phone number type of things that I am concerned about the other person getting, which are also the things you usually discuss with people you haven't talked to in a while. It's not that I don't trust her, but this was a bad area for us in the past whereby she wanted to stay neutral between me and this other person but her being in contact with them at all caused problems for me and my family. (Too many details to really expound upon)

Can you contact her by email? If so, it's not that hard to say "please don't give my email address to anyone else." Then you don't have to specify who it is you don't want to contact you. She may guess, but still reiterate that no-one else is best, just in case one of her other friends has a loose tongue.
If you don't have an email address for her, you might try renting a mailbox and using that address when you write to her. Then if she does reveal it, it will not lead anyone to your home. Of course, it's still a good idea to ask she not share to PO box address with anyone else.

No in no way Scooter, i assume you met this costly somebody right here, and what happened on your connection grew to become right into a starting to be, and speaking previous right here. I ought to have self belief there grew to become into some mutual leisure, yet "slowly" is the approach and that i doubt you would be much less concept-approximately interior the doing.
