I'm someone's "the one that got away"

[Anonymous]

and didn't know it until now.

"well..........here we are on the first cool day of fall, and here I am yet again unable to think about anything but this time all those years ago. I don't know what it means to you, but i just wanted to let you know that our thing whatever it was to you contains some of the fondest memories that i've had in this life. I just wanted you to know that. I dont expect you to feel the same or even respond to this, i know you are happy with your husband, but i just needed to tell you. Every woman since you has been compared to you and none of them have even come close. "

 While I am flattered, I don't want to respond, I don't know what I would even say to him. We dated for 3 or 4 months, SIX years ago. It was a very casual thing and ended on good terms. He's never said anything like this before, we are Facebook friends and have never exchanged anything more that "Hey, how are you, how are the kids". I guess he is getting nostalgic in his old age? lol

I will tell my husband about the message tomorrow, he will probably think it's funny.
