In the world of social media, we are more connected than ever. Some friendships made in school decades ago are bonds people cherish throughout their life. However, with busy schedules and life, sometimes we are not able to connect to our old friends. In some cases, we are unable to locate them on Facebook or Instagram because of the change in appearance and other factors. Recently, a woman shared an instance of how hiring platform LinkedIn helped her reconnect with her childhood best friend after 15 long years and her story is winning the internet.
Vedika took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share the incident. “LinkedIn literally reunited me with my childhood best friend after 15 years,” she wrote in the caption. In an accompanying screenshot, one can notice the LinkedIn DM window of a conversation between the user and a woman- Barnali. Ms Vedika thanks Ms Barnali for connecting and later sends her a picture of two kids, sitting in a classroom, asking if “by any chance, is the girl on the right side, you?” To which, Ms Barnali responds, “Aaa yess, Wait are you really Vedika?? From back then?” The former confirms the same and they both continue to have a conversation.
