Do you still have friends from your younger days?

[LIP]

From high school, no, I hated HS. I got kicked out after the 2nd semester after they realized suspensions were giving me more pleasure than harm.

But, I did graduate 2 years ago finally, and no, I don't keep in touch with any of my classmates. It's too bad really because we had a lot of fun. It was HS work, but at age 23 at a college, with a bar, it seemed more like a vacation than work.

My junior high buddies though I keep in touch with one. I still saw other friends from back then, but I never really called them, but this 1 guy I have known since I was about 11. He's a good guy, but he has some problems and our differences kind of clash now, so we talk, not really hang out.

So to answer the question, I guess not really. Too bad really, but when you change your life for the better, friends are one of the first things to go.

We're quite similar you know - i HATED secondry[ high school]school [nothing was relevent to life, and i hated being told what to do by idiots who didnt care about anything] - i was suspended alot of the time and enjoyed it - and just before i was going to be expelled [at about 14] i just quit and never went back. The only things i learnt in school was reading, writing, maths and some science. I taught myself the rest, and the relevent stuff.

I was also one of only 2 or 3 pollitical people in my year, well, people who knew what they was talking about. Things like THAT should be taught. Responicibility, information about mortgages and equity, governemnt set up and LIFE in general.

Maybe if school was relevent to real life i would have stayed.

yeah i kept 4 of my best friends since i was in grade school, one i've known since i was born. i don't know what i'd do if they weren't around.
most of my high school friends have moved on in their lives, some i see around town. i'm waiting for the 10yr reunion.

Ha ha only 10 spelling errors. It's all good, I know what you mean. School is meant to teach you how to do the work that you're given, not necessarily be relevant to everything. :jointsmile:

I've been out of high school for 4 years and despite the fact that my hometown is less than an hour away I very rarely see or talk to any of my old friends.

I think it's just part of life, you grow up and people move on in different directions. I just smoke lots of ganj and enjoy the time I've got however possible. :rasta:

I've got a group of a few friends that I've known since early grade school, one of them even since preschool. My best friend in the world I've known since 2nd grade is moving down to Missouri next week to go to school. I'm gonna be bummed when he goes, he's almost like a brother to me we hang out all the time.
