We have both since left school and moved on with life. I am now 28 but still often think about her. I didn't treat her right and always think about how I'd change things if I could. I am married now but finding that I am dreaming about my old flame on a regular basis, every other night at the moment. I love my wife dearly and don't plan on leaving her - but I found myself trying to find my old flame on the internet the other day - without even thinking about my life as it is now. Does this seem a normal thing to do after so long? I would love to meet her again, but then again, I wouldn't know why?

You sound just curious and it really sounds like you just want to know that this former gf is well and happy. Also, now that you are older, you've matured, you understand love and what committment means to you. If you treated this old gf badly-you might be experiencing a bit of a guilty conscience. However, there are some people who do think of old flames because they are experiencing loneliness in their own lives and clinging to a slim hope that they could revive this past love. This does not sound like you. Give this time to work it's way out. You seem quite committed to looking to the future with your wife...so if I were you, it might be best to leave the past as it was.
Good luck and stay happy
