For several decades, restoring contact with former classmates and classmates was a significant problem: addresses, telephones were lost, people changed their place of residence. Nowadays, everything is much simpler.
Finding classmates is not difficult
If you have set yourself the task of finding your friends and classmates, then first of all try to find out their contact details through mutual acquaintances. Perhaps someone is still in touch with your classmates. But if you don't want to baffle others, try online searching for the people you want. There are many of them on the Internet. In Russia, the most popular sites are Odnoklassniki, VKontakte, Facebook, Moi Mir, Mail.ru, Mir Friends. And this is not the whole list of sites where you can find your classmates.
A good people search system operates on the Odnoklassniki social network. Naturally, in order to use its functions, you will need to register on the site yourself. Otherwise, the useful options of this social service will not be available to you. The user of the site just needs to go to his personal page and in the "Search" line on the left (it is marked with a magnifying glass) indicate the data of your classmate: name, surname, age, approximate place of residence. After that, the service system will present you with all the results found. There may be many of them. In this case, it is recommended to narrow your search by specifying a more precise age, city.
The site also has a number of communities that unite classmates, students of one school or any other educational institution. To find it, enter the name of the school or university in the search bar. In the list of found communities, find your educational institution and join this community by clicking the "Join" button. After you become a member of this group, open the "Members" section and look for your classmates, classmates, etc. in it. After that, go to the right person on the page and send him an invitation to be friends.
If a friend lives on VKontakte
If you are not lucky with Odnoklassniki, use the search on other social networks. For example, the VKontakte service is very popular in our country, so you can try to find your classmates on this site. To do this, in the search bar located on the top toolbar, enter your friend's first and last name. For the convenience of searching for a specific person, use the additional features of the service. To do this, in the right part of the window, fill in the items: region, school, university, gender, marital status, etc. In this case, the system will provide you with a narrower list of candidates. You just have to choose the right person and send him a friend invitation. You can also find the community first, and then see all its members and invite your classmate as friends.
People are being searched for in other social networks as well. You can also try to find the person through the Internet search engine you use. Enter the first name, last name of a classmate, age in the search bar. Perhaps, using this data, the system will be able to find the person you need on the Internet. You just have to go to the specified link.
Offline searches
If you can't find your friend on social media, try other options. For example, you can download the telephone databases of mobile operators and search for the person you need in them. There are also many television programs now that specialize in finding people. One of them is “Wait for me”. Various talk shows can also help in the search for classmates. Contact the program, tell your story and, perhaps, soon you will be invited to the shooting, where your classmate will be introduced to you.
Any methods are good in the search for people, so it will not be superfluous to remind you of the address information that can be provided in any city. You only need to provide the last name, first name, patronymic of your classmate. And to make the search more successful, indicate, if known, his date of birth and approximate place of residence, the city in which he previously lived. You can also try to find out all the necessary information by contacting law enforcement officers: through their channels, they can find out the whereabouts of a person in a fairly short time. Relatives have the right to submit to the internal affairs bodies a statement about the loss of family ties with a specific person. The police will start searching and, if the result is positive, they will certainly inform you where the wanted person is, unless, of course, he himself will not be against meeting you.
