Poll: High School Reunions

Did you/will you go to your 10 year reunion (or any number)?

Mine is coming up in a couple of months and I'm still undecided. I graduated early b/c I was over HS 10 years ago and I'm not so sure I want to see everyone again. Most of my friends were in different years and I've only kept up with one person from my class.

We've had one and I didn't go. I enjoyed high school but I really don't keep up with anyone from there, most of my friends are from college and beyond. I don't feel like I missed out by not going.

My ten year isn't for another 3 years, but I probably won't go. Now that there are so many social networking websites I know all I need to know about people from High School. The ones I actually care about, I still talk to them every now and then.

Our 10 year reunion has past we are coming up on our 20 year reunion. F U C K I am getting old. Anyway - no one really wanted to pay $50 for a weekend of activities (DH was on the planning committee) so he says even if we do have one he wont go. I would love to b.c I would love to see how unattractive they all are now - you know b.c I am gorgeous? Wink I HATED HS so I am not sure I would go. Plus we still see a lot of ppl we graduated with - really not sure if I care that much.

My 10 yr is coming up next year, and I'm still undecided if I want to go or not. I suppose it depends on when it is b/c my sister is getting married the weekend after labor day next year and I have all the lovely festivities to plan along with that, being matron of honor, so if it's too close to a bridal shower or bachelorette party, then I'm not going to make the trip to Ohio when I'm already driving everywhere for her stuff.

We were suppose to have one last year (10 year), but it got canceled at the last minute. I was planning on going and would go if they planned another one.

Yes, I made plans years ago w/ 2 of my friends to get completely tanked and go. As far as I know, they are still a go with this plan, so that's what we'll do

Mine isn't until next year, though.

My 10 year reunion fell on DH's birthday and I didn't feel like subjecting him to that on his day so we didn't go. Plus I keep in touch with my friends from high school anyway so I didn't feel the need to be there and don't feel like I missed out.

It's great to be outside of your comfort zone every once in a while! It shows you you're still alive! I will most likely go to mine which will be next year. It's in the planning stages now and I've received a few emails about it. I didn't like everyone in high school and there are probably reasons I didn't keep up with different people, but people change. You never know unless you go... what if you go, reluctantly and end up having a great conversation with someone you never really even hung out with in highschool? You'd miss that if you didn't go. My plan will be to go in a group and "make an appearance" or sneak out early if it's a real bomb. I think I'd have more to wonder about if I didn't go.

Sure, it will be a little awkward when arriving, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and I feel better about life when I'm feeling confident.

Yes, I went to mine, I had to, I was the organizer since I was the class president. I still have a lot of friends from HS (I actually stay in better touch with them than I do most of my college friends) but most of them didn't go. It was a surprisingly good time, honestly. While I loved my time in HS, I have lived a very different life than many of them and thought I wouldn't enjoy myself nearly as much as I did. But I was happy to see that many turned their dead-end lives around, some are doing things that I'd NEVER expected them to do. The people I wasn't interested in speaking to, I didn't, but the ones that I was always friendly with, but not necessarily "friends" with--we all exchanged stories, updates, etc. And I think that "most" everyone that attended were glad that they did. I would say that most of us left our spouses at home, there were a handful that did bring them, and I think those were the people that were the most awkward.
