You wrote the above specifically about reestablishing friendships but I found it rang a loud bell in a more general way. You've nailed down one of the mistakes I repeatedly make. In trying to catch up to where I think my life should be I go back to where I left off. For example, returning to school and the major I left years ago. It was the last thing I remembered really wanting to do but it was unsuccessful because I wasn't really in the same place. I just felt like I should be. Or on a lighter level getting into the music everybody else left behind years ago because I was oblivious to it when it was new. (Supertramp, Rolling Stones anyone?)
Now all I need to do is figure out how to do what you describe.
