Do you still keep in touch with your high school friends and do friends usually have something alike?

Yes, i've actually gotten back in touch with some of them since I graduated college and moved back to my hometown.  I have some in common with a few of them but most of them have a very different lifestyle than I do.  I find that having a common history is enough with those friends, we can sit and talk about old times, what we used to do, what's going on with us now without having to share the same interests, etc.

I went to one in central Illinois beginning in junior high all the way until is was 16 (which was the cutoff).  I fought with my dad because I didn't want to go the first year and didn't want to be away from my friends.  I was sad to tell my father that I had the best time of my life. I made so many friends from all over.  All of the same people went back each year so it was good to catch up with everyone we didn't see  the rest of the year.  I still keep in touch with some people I met there and it was like 10 years ago.  It was a great experience that I would reccomend to all youths.

try checking out those websites where they trace high school classmates in the past. Also try Friendster, Hi5 MySpace, etc. They practically have everybody in there.

if they're a true friend they will never forget you,but, you as a true friend, however, should always keep in contact with them whether by emails, phone calls, letters, whatever form of communication so that you and your friend would always have someone to confide in and be there for you and you for them. don't worry you never forget true friends and they never forget you.

I found a ton of old friends from high school 9 or 10 years ago on myspace.  It's free to join and there is a tab at the top that says search, just click it and type in their name.  Good Luck!

one of the girls I went to high school with had a very similar relationship--they are still married today, more than 15 years later. Love comes wherever you find it--I wish you luck

the main thing and most important thing you need to do is BE YOURSELF...that way you'll find people that are more like YOU and have way more fun with them then people that aren't.  And to let you in on a little secret...probably about 90% of the people you go to high school with...you'll never see again, except for like at reunions and stuff...so make sure you pick the friends that accept you for you and the ones you'd want around more. =)

I think that high school is a stage in life....when you leave that stage you tend to go on to bigger and better things. If you go away to college, you meet all these new people and as mean as it sounds you tend to lose track of your h.s. friends b/c you simply dont have time. I havent been to a high school reunion, but I feel that when I do have mine I will want to have great things accomplished not so I can feel Im better than everyone, but so I will feel that I have accomplished things some of those people never thought I would.

If you log onto friends reunited you can tap your school and year in. This is free to do. Anybody that you want to email on there you have to pay a small joining fee and you can email as many people as you like. Happy searching.

I don't think of MySpace as a high school popularity contest, so I have a lot of friends, but not half as many as some people.\n\nI moved two years ago out of my hometown, where I had lived all my life, so I use MySpace to keep in touch with people from there.  I also used it to make new friends in the place that I moved to so I wouldn't be totally alone and confused.\n\nI also used it to join local groups to talk to people about what are some good hangouts around.\n\nAnnndd I also joined groups for people who have the same interests as me and belong to the same organizations as me (ie girls in my sorority at other universities, people in AF ROTC at other universities) just to talk to them about what it's like where they're at.

Yes I do have a best friend. Her name is Ida. And we have known each other since we have been 1. We are now in our mid 30's and we talk to each other on the phone 1-2 times a week and I see her every time I go home to my home town!

Give each other space, but set a ground rule that you will be there for them no matter what. I have two best friends from high school I am still friends with based on this rule. We don't have to talk more than 4-6 times a year, but they know I will do anything for them..if asked.

Not-so-popular! And you know what? In retrospect, I'm glad! I had many great friends in High School, just not the "correct" friends. I wasted so much time worrying about why some jerks didn't like me. And it is so crazy in retrospect because I can't stand those people. Imagine if I'd had to spend a lot more time with them! High school kids need to learn this lesson: there's more to life than being popular. Sometimes things can even work out better for you if you're not.

it depends, if they only have their friends and ppl they know, then yes. It is a fun experiance and a great way to keep in touch.
