    People change over time. The girl you knew in 7th grade is not the young woman you know now. Our lives lead us down paths that aren't necessarily the ones we should have followed, and may lead us astray.
    I suggest you contact her again. Email, phone, person to person and talk to her again. I certainly wouldn't leave everything you know and pack up for a girl you haven't spoken to in years.

    Get in touch with her. It's the only way you'll know if you're still interested in her. People change. Don't be surprised if she's not the person you fell in love with so long ago.

    The Kelly strategy is fascinating and has potential application to investing, you are correct. However, it's a long way from that to extrapolating from one experiment and assuming you can get a 100% return/yr just by adopting it.
