Anonymous Coward User ID: 29587027 United States 08/10/2015 12:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My 20 is in a few weeks. Can't make it back as I don't live in the US anymore. The way I see it is fuck 'em. Why should I be concerned about people I knew for 4 years a long time ago. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44015926 This. My 25th was last year. I don't remember many of those people and hs was only 3 years for me. Not sure why people care so much about reunions unless they have some sort of insecurity and feel the need to show up to say "look at me". Plus after reuniting with a few on Facebook, I realized I would not be missing much as most of them are fat (women), bald/beer belly (guys) and divorced and they all still seem to like to gossip about everyone else from hs. Its like a desperate attempt at one more chance with the person you may have had a crush on and to show people how great your life turned out. There was only one person I cared to find from hs buy they are literally off the grid. My ccollege reunion - that's an entirely different story, I love reuniting with my friends from college and do so as often as I can. |

A short phone call is enough to let them know the impact they made. Exactly. I keep in touch with only 4 people from hs. 2 are not even on Facebook. We've kept in touch since hs, so we've never been out of each other's lives. |

My life is so much better than the ghetto I was raised in. The goody-goods from high school all turned out to still live in the ghetto & are fat. And all the normal nerds kids, left and haven't looked back. I have a world of things to say haha to, but I don't want all the, OMG you turned out so much better than all of us (now fat cow) x-cheerleaders thought you would be....so as much as I'd like to make them reconcile their hopes & dreams were devastated because of their lousy choices....I can't take any pride in going. |

Quoting: CountryWise Ha ha...me too. I look way better than I did in hs. I got a great spouse. We're rich beyond any expectations (I was poor in hs) and we have a great life. Yet I feel no need to show up and make small talk for 3 hours and talk about how great our kids are. Its like I know how good I've got it, why jinx it. Plus I think the people that love organizing and attending are just busy bodies with no life. They have some sort of void that can only be filled by knowing what so and so is doing and who they are married to and what their kids are doing, etc. Its like a competition, only everyone is old and fat. To be honest, I find it depressing, especially since so many from my hs are divorced. |
