Because sometimes you rekindle relationships that have drifted apart but you still stayed somewhat tethered to thanks to social media.

I rekindled a friendship with an old friend when I realized he was visiting the same foreign country as I was. Funny enough his wife is a mutual college friend of ours whom he had lost touch with but only met again after reconnecting on social media. I also reconnected with her through my friend.




Yep! And those little updates can sometimes lead to unexpected and meaningful reconnections, like your story with your friend and his wife.
