If I do decide to respond and meet him:

1) I won't loan him any money. Period. I stopped that 20 years ago. I won't even pay for a beer. Any asking of money I would take as a sign he hasn't changed enough I'd be interested in dealing with him again.

2) I see signs he may have grown up. From what I can tell, he is married, with kids and gainful employment. If he has grown up and no longer expects me to take care of him, I may be interested in having a conversation with him.

3) It would be very easy for me to walk away if he still isn't a person I want to associate with. I've done it before. I have no problem with doing it again.

4) Worst case, he's the same person he was 10 years ago. I'll probably get a good story out of the encounter.

5) My hope is enough time has passed that he has some perspective and maturity. I don't expect this, though.
