If you haven't had any contact with this person for a long time, how do you know that he/she is still the same person you used to know, and that this person feels the same as you? People do change over time. For that matter, isn't it possible that you've over-romanticized your memories of this person, and that you're in love with the person you want him/her to be rather than the person he/she really is? I had an ex who I didn't see for close to a year after we broke up, and when I finally did, it was rather anticlimactic. I'd been looking forward to seeing him again, but when it happened, I really didn't feel anything. We'd just grown apart and had literally nothing left in common to talk about or do. I'm not saying that it would necessarily be that way if you saw your person, but it seems to me that it would be more likely than just picking up again like nothing had ever happened.
