    If she truly is/was a good friend, the passage of time since you last saw her shouldn't make any difference.

    A couple of years ago, I saw a friend I hadn't seen for about twelve years, and only intermittently emailed over that time. We had some catching up to do, but we were totally comfortable with each other from the start.

    If you and your friend have more or less kept up to date with what's been going on each other's lives, that would make it even easier.

    Don't stress about it. If you can't help doing that and you were as close as you say, then you shouldn't feel shy about admitting that you were worried.

    Well it is normal for a lot of people to get nervous over pretty much anything even if there's no logical reason to do so.

    If she really is such a close friend and you didn't have a falling out it will be like no time has passed, and just like it was the last time you were together. Try to be excited and happy about seeing her!
