You found "puppy love" at 6 and knew this girl up until you were 15. You were both children then. I think it is crucial that you realize this "love" you proclaim for her stems from a memory from childhood and who you both were then.

Now, 47 years later, I think that if you got to know this woman now - and let's imagine for a moment that you were both single - you'd discover that you have both grown to become different people. Yes, there may be some similarities from your childhood, but you've both had 47 years that have molded who you are today.

I think you are hungering for a fantasy love to become reality and you'd be greatly disappointed.

Reconnecting after so many years would require starting from scratch. Which would be difficult on its own because you'd be blinded by looking into her eyes and wanting to see her as she was a 15. She isn't the same person and neither are you.
