People over the age of 21..

[7 Syns]

I talk to a few dudes, 4 or so from my high school days. We're good mates. However it seems the only time I see them or they ask me to chill is when they need something. In retrospect I've wasted alot of time on them.

peace.

Up until maybe a year ago this was true for me, but got back in touch with my best friend from HS even though she's married with a kid it doesnt effect our friendship. I think when your younger the changes impact you alot more than when your older, like when your growing up with someone you want to stay the same. Dunno but she's really the only one, at her Wedding there were a few of people from HS that I hadnt seen since I left, and it made me realise how lucky I am to get away so easily haha. Also the other group of people I hang out with changed because of drugs, but I think if I were to see them around I'd catch up with them.

I remember people telling me this, and it couldn't be anymore true. My best friends from HS, I rarely talk to anymore, and when we do talk, we usually end up arguing. They think i'm acting different, I think i'm maturing. It saddens me everytime I think about it. At the same end of that, I have two close friends from like 5th grade who I still talk to, not as frequently as I used to, but at least we still keep in touch.

I KNOW a lot of people from all walks of life....I just hate that I can't be as close with them as I used to be. It bothered me a lot originally, but knowing that other people go through this too, makes it that much easier.

you know what yes. I believe the more people grow the more people change their views, their apperance, almost everything, including friends. Personally I have changed so much since i was 17, and I'm glad. Now I fucking hate teenagers and the way they act. Change is not only good but important, without it, you are just someone stuck in the past.

P.S Nothing wrong with keeping good ol' friends around, we all do.

i finished H.S. last year and i'm already losing contact with my H.S. friends. but thats also because they're into drinking and clubbing all the time and not me anymore. i changed, became somehow more serious and this created a distance between me and them. still talk to them once in a while to know whats up. but i dont know if i still associate myself with them. i'm good where i'm at for now which is work, my boyfriend and 1-2 serious friends. i dont need more, dont need less. then school is starting and i'm coming back with my cegep friends which i havent really talked all summer.

i change friends all the time. it has always been like this in my life and will ever be. i've never always been with the same friends and it'll never be. and serious friends i havent had much in my life. the ones i have now iant have a serious deep conversation with them. its always about boys, clubbing and clothes except for 1-2 friends.

so yeah things are changing pretty fast for me now. but i wont lie and say i dislike it. time passes, friends change and most importantly, i change. i think i've became more serious and more mature than i was some times ago.

most ppl get into clubbing after they get outta high school haha, but on the real u shouldnt be so serious.... it makes life no fun. im serious about work and college- but not even that sometimes

i was clubbing during my last year of H.S. and it was enough. once in a while its cool. but every weeks? nope.

When I was 17, my manager (who was 24 at the time) from work told me - "In 5 years, you won't be hanging out with the friends you have now" - I'm finding this to be true as time passes by. What about you? Have you changed? Did they change? Tell us.

That's the truth. Me and my mates from school have lost in contact. I have more mates now from UNI and work than from school. It's sad but that's the way things go. You've got your own commitment and so do the others. I guess that's what splits my mates apart. You can only reminisce the good ol' times....

Peace~

I only keep contact with 2 friends from college, and thats mainly because they're going to college as well. Made a lot more (and better) friends in college though, since most of them know what they're doing in life and not just thinking about partying and shit

Everyone goes in different directions after highschool. I talk to one person I went to highschool with. It's life.

 

[S. Fourteen]

don say things like that, ur scaring me. Its very depressing thinkin about things like that

Thinking about people changing and finding new friends?

 

[simo]

It's probably true as after high school people go their own ways. With my friends from school, there is only me at my uni, a few others go tafe and others work so during the day we are generally doing different things at different places. However I still am close friends with about 10 from school and see them regularly. I haven't made any real close friends from uni though, closest friends are from my high school days.

Anyone here old enough to have been to their 10 year high school reunion, or some reunion of the sort? How did that go?
