Why Don't You Go To Reunions?

I never got invited to a reunion. Maybe they don't know where I am. In any case I would not go. I kept in touch with a couple friends from HS. One died in 1990 and I still send a Christmas card and letter to the other one.

I tend to agree with Aerianne. That for the most part I did not like them then and would not like them now.

 

i hate meeting folks i already know I'd rather meet new ones.

 

All the people I knew in high school that I want in my life already are. The rest of them I could care less about.

 

I don't think I've ever heard of any reunions.

 

I wasnt in school much, so no personal experience. However I have a friend who rents cars for functions etc. he said that much of his business over the recent years has been renting out posh cars to people going to reunions, just so they can lie about their own success......honestly what is happening to people!

 

Nothing special, people have always been that crazy.

 

My high school reunion is this year but we aren't having a real reunion. Because of Facebook everyone knows what everyone else is up to so there was a major lack of interest and no one wanted to pay a high ticket price for a bar, venue, and dj. Instead they've reserved a section at the local baseball stadium and after the game everyone is going bar hopping. I doubt I'll go. Whenever I run into old classmates at a bar I pretend I don't know them anyways.

 

I don't think my family ever had a reunion...

 

I'd rather have surgery than go to a high school reunion. Anyone I wanna catch up with from high school or that I'm curious about...well, that's what facebook is for.

 

I'm on their "Do Not Call" list...

 

Just missed my 55th. The one I went to was enough. Probably served creamed corn and mashed taters to the toothless old cracks for dinner.

 

Because most of them were dicks.
And most of them still are.
I couldn't care less what is up with them.
I don't have a need to tell anyone what is up with me.

And with those that mattered for me I still keep in touch.

I guess it is similar for most people.

 

Yeah, I have no interest in what usually amounts to shallow conversation and exaggeration. These functions tend to be for those stuck somewhere in the past. I've moved on, I'm happy with where I am at, any friends that meant anything to me are still close.

I hate to see OLD friends. It reminds me that I'm old too. I prefer to remember them as when they were young and full of life. I had a friend who died of liver disease recently. The last time I had seen her she was in her early twenties (many years ago). I'm glad I still have that memory of her from when she was young, healthy and happy.

 

I didn't like most of the asshats back then, so why would I wanna go see those same asshats in an older version? Never went back, never will......
