I had a former sweetheart that won the lotto and I do not know if I should make friends again with her or ignore her. Do I congratulate her? I am afraid that she might think that I am only interested in her because she won the lottery. --- Confused!!

well, are you friends with her before she won the money? if yes, then why not call her and be happy for her? if no, it's better not to congratulate her at all!

Quite encouraging eunice! Will email her this week to really get a feel of her sentiments. I got word from her friends she is very busy, really busy! Money do change a person's life pretty fast ah?

Yes, we were still in good relations and in fact she visits the country once in a while, and I took her for the rounds of the city. But recently for about a year now, I haven't called, emailed or even sent her a postcard. Just afraid she might think that it is because of her new wealth that I again am trying to call or make contact with her. Wouldn't you also think the same way if I hadn't called you up for almost a year?

There is no harm in Congratulating her at all but then after that leave it to her if she wants to keep in cintact with you that way she could not say that you are only interrested in the Money Did you break up in good or bad feelings thats the other thing aswell

Well the question is, ARE you only interested in her because you one the lottery? If so they you shouldnt say anything. If you genuinly just want to congratulate her, then do so. Just be plain and honest.

I am genuinely interested in congratulating her, and also would like to offer advise as she, as I had known her for a long time, is a very undecisive person and I just care that she will lose that money in no time. No, I have no interest in her money. I make my own and it is thru my own hardwork. I just dont want to appear I become interested because of her new found wealth...!
