High School Reunions

I was just wondering what people think about high school reunions.

Now I still have friends from high school but I have no interest in seeing the rest of those people again. Isn't going to a high school reunion a little pathetic?
 
Im not much on them I never did go to none of mine.
 
Hmmmm.....

No, I don't like them, as I think they're just lame. All the people that I used to know, and that are still worth knowing about, I'm still in contact. Plus with Facebook etc, never been easier to find out what they're up to without actually having to meet them.

Having said that........ After all that I've achieved of the past few years and what I'm working on at the moment, it would be really good to walk into that room, and put all the rest of them to shame. Maybe just an ego stroke, but I think it would pay for itself.
 
it's for the popular people, you know. the people that think everyone that they knew were their friends.
 
My high school was so cliquey, we don't even have a reunion. I doubt I'd go even if we did. Most of my friends in high school were a grade (or two) lower than me....I despised the vast majority of people in my own class.
 
I'm one of the few people in my graduating class that still live close to the high school I went to and even I'm not going to it. I can't say I though much of most of the other people I went to school with. I guess looking back in hindsight it's not so much I hated or even disliked them as much as we came from two different worlds. To me they still acted like **** long after I grew up and had adult responsibility. Unfortunately, I would almost bet there are a huge number of them that still haven’t grown up.
 
I wasn't going to go but I did. I ended up hooking up with someone I liked all through high school. Then she got back with her ex but hey it was a fun night.
 
One of my current roommates went to high school with me. We knew each other from a US Government class that we had together, but we only exchanged an occasional hello in class. When we went to college, we were assigned to the same apartment, so we became friends.

That being said, there have been many, many times when we've sat and reminisced about high school and the people we knew. After countless hours of debate on the matter, we've decided that we'll both go to our 10-year reunion not because we really care about the people, but because, looking through our senior yearbook, we've found that there were SHITLOADS of super smoking hot girls (a few of them have become professional sports cheerleaders) that we either didn't know existed, or didn't notice because they were eclipsed by a hotter girl in the same class. Basically, we're going back to look at what we missed the first time around. ;)
 
looks like most everyone feels the same way i do
why would i want to see people again i couldnt stand in the first place:dunno:
 
A few months ago I was at my favorite bar watching a hockey game and I see a few of my old classmates come in. We sat around, had dinner and drinks and caught up the past 10 years, since that's how long it's been since I've seen them. Other than that, my 10 year reuinion never went off and even if it did, I wouldn't go because I really didn't like some of the people in my class and all reuinions are good for is seeing who has the most money and who has or hasn't fucked up in life.
 
I have no idea who came with the idea of reunions in the first place or who the hell would want to go to one. I can't see the purpose of a high school reunion. Anyone I went to HS with that I want to talk to knows how to get in contact with me. Why would one want to go to room full people that you never spoke to 10 or 20 years ago? BTW, who in the hell thought a show about it on TV Land would be watched? Sorry for the rant.
 
I had better things to do. I'm still close to a core group of friends from High School. I didn't see the point to go "connect" for a night with people I wouldn't see again afterward..:dunno:

I wasn't all that interested in girls at my high school. They all had boyfriends. I had a LOT more fun in college.
 
MikeyK - I don't think it's pathetic at all :dunno:

Go for it. Things change in ten years, and even moreso in twenty. You're liable to connect with a person or two you'd have never imagined enjoying based on their high school persona.
