@Billl - I totally agree with what you had to say. I was on Facebook one time and I quit it after only two weeks. I was hoping to be contacted by some great long-lost friend but it didn't happen. I got contacted by a former classmate from h.s. who had contacted lots of others. I didn't want to have contact with anyone from there. And then when I looked on the profiles, it brought back unpleasant memories.
To Rose - Something tells me that person who contacted you might want to get together to sell you something. It's not a sure bet, but it seems like a possibility. I had that happen to me one time from an acquaintance from the past. I liked what
Lizardlady suggested to you. That's how I would like to handle something like that.
