In reply to the discussion: Anyone have any good (or bad) high school reunion stories? I'm about to go to mine... [View all]benld74
(9,908 posts)I went to the 10th still single, the 20th married with a 8 month old, and a 3 class 30th but our class was the youngest at only 27yr.
I began a FB Class for 74, which went over BIG, for about 5 months. I try to keep it going, but either people don't know they can post, or forget to post. But it's there. That stuff is easy for me.
10 year had half single half married. Lots of drinking. 20 year, some of the 10 year married, were now g-parents, or starting 2nd families, one married the divorced spouse of another. Yelling, cussing, drinks thrown kinda night, with a state trooper classmate cooling the heads off quietly. The night ended in a hotel suite with around 20 of us pretending to be teens again with the alcohol. I awoke the next morning with my head telling me differently.
30 was much slower, same group at the bar(I lost ability by then). Friend was approached by another who asked for a ménage a troi with him and his wife, same group of jocks hanging around. Guys having grudges nobody was aware, suddenly made them known to everyone.
I purchased a reunion group pix but never received the thing.
Today people talk about another, but nobody is stepping up yet. 50th will be 2024, right after I plan to retire.
We shall see
