Poll of the Day > High school

(+) Yeah! (+)

Did you got to your high school reunion(s)? Do you still talk to anyone from HS or think about them? Let's see what people think? I must have these answers!!!

I skipped on my reunion, kinda wish I went, but I was at a pretty low point confidence-wise at the time. At the same time I don't think I really missed much, it's just kinda fun to see how people change over ten years and whatnot.

I only talk to one person from HS still and he was pretty much the only person I talked to even immediately after it, so yeah... didn't make the greatest of friends there

I haven't been out of high school long enough to have a reunion but I still have a couple friends from those days. Hopefully it will stay that way

---

I didn't go to any of my high school reunions. I still talk to three people from high school.

---

We never had one. There was talk, but nothing ever came of it.

---

I haven't gone to any of my reunions. The only person I still talk to from high school is someone I've been friends with since kindergarten.

I didn't go to any reunions. I don't talk to anyone from high school and have only seen 1 person, once. That was a great night.

---

I didn't have one. Not sure if I would have went

---

Haven't been to a reunion. I'm still playing D&D via google meet with one of my old high school friends, otherwise I don't talk to anyone from high school regularly. I check my friends facebooks from time to time to see where they're at.

Reunions are totally pointless with social media. Someone put one on though, but I had a flight across the country the next day and needed to prep and honestly just didn't wanna go. The person who put it on I have no beef with, but I found her upbeat, try-hard demeanor annoying in h/s. Anyone seen Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion? She was the Toby to my Heather. I just wanted her to fuck off whenever I saw her. But there's no real ill will.

I probably wouldn't be against going for the rest of my life, if they did one again I would consider it at least.

I went to my 10 year.

I just say, go if it's convenient and you care to. If not, who cares. It can be mildly entertaining, but you're not missing out on much. You end up having 4 sentence conversations with people, since it ends up being the 'same old', and you realize you never really connected 10-22 years ago in the first place. It's still aight tho hearing those experiences.

Only one person got abhorrently drunk (well, a couple others were borderline), and that's pretty darn good considering it was at a pub. I'm just glad I didn't join the folks afterwards that headed downtown for more drinking at midnight. Nah.

I went to my 25 year last year, the only one I ever went to. It was very surreal. Most of the girls who were stuck up on themselves were all dancing like the "all the party people, hey yo!" and looked reallllly old for their age. Like they never stopped drinking or something. Just about every guy was bald now too lol

---

I didn't go to my high school reunion, but I would like to one day. I still have close friends from high school that I talk to regularly. Some of my friends I've known since elementary.

Seeing the spectrum of how people you know age through their 20s is interesting. Some people look exactly as you remember and then there are the ones who got bald at 25.

I guess it's probably the same for our 30s and so on

I knew someone who was starting to bald while we were in high school. I got my first gray hair in junior high. My family grays very early. It's been very gradual for me, luckily. I'm 31 and still have predominately black hair with grays sprinkled in.

I'm kinda the opposite. I looked basically the same from 19 to 28 until I could finally grow a beard. I don't know if I'll ever shave it off cause I'm afraid of looking like a 12 year old again

Aside from my gray hairs, I still look very young. I will never be able to grow a full beard. I've had people say I still look like I'm in high school, though I think that is a strech. I think I look 23 or so.

I don't know if there were any. I don't use social media, so there isn't a way for them to invite me
---

Haven't really been interested. Can't imagine that they have much turnout in this day and age.

Pretty much this for me as well.

I will also say that there isn't anyone that would go that I don't already have the ability to see.

---

there were talks of people trying to organize a reunion of sorts but it's unlikely to happen simply due to how scattered people are. Before, I was against it but I have no grudges anymore, we're all 35 now, most have their own families and stuff.

---

I don't think I'd bother going to one. Everyone from high school I want to keep in contact with I have on social media, and I don't have a desire to see most my graduating class. If my wife wants to go to hers (same school, but she's two years younger than me) I'd go as her plus one, but it'd be more for her benefit than mine.

No and no.

---

Yes, but I live in a rural area so I still see a lot of them...or did before Covid.

---

my 10 year is this year but I doubt theyll even do it this year

---

I talk to a handful of people but no, not interested in a reunion. I hated most of my classmates.

---

No. I was unceremoniously excluded. For the 10 year reunion, I saw some chatter about it online(I think on facebook maybe). I asked for details as I was considering going, and the posts got deleted pretty quickly after that.

20 year is coming up next year, doubt I'd go even if they didn't hide the info.

---

Ive been friends with the same dude since grade one. Hes overcompensating with his relationship right now though, so I dont really see him much.

Same. I hung out with the junior class most of the time, save for a few good buddies in my grade. Unfortunately those are the people they stick you with at these things haha

haha no.
I recently looked up some friends from High School to find out they are bums worse off than me that I'd never associate with, and this is coming from a 30 year old Senior Software Engineer that has virtually no control over his life.

i went to two high schools, one of which i obviously didnt graduate with my class and the other is across the country and i was only there for like a year and a half, so i didnt have any history with those kids either

i do still speak to one person from high school though. but i have no desire to speak to anyone else
