Well, I almost got sucked in..... apparently there is a '82 group from my high school on FB that one of my old classmates signed me up for - that alone surprised me. Here is person who I didn't really care about back then (in fact I found her to be a rather mean person, but that was HS) contacting me to let me know they are thinking of having a 30 year reunion next year. Okay - so I was intrigued to know who was on their list, but that way yesterday
Today I just go upset. Why in the hell would I want to hang out with people who weren't nice to me back then and who haven't bothered to even stay friends in the intervening years. That is in the past - I am in the present and I really have no desire to either reminisce about the past or find out what any of them are doing in the present. First why go back in dig up those old wounds with people who really don't care. I don't have any BFFs from HS.
I was sitting here getting all upset thinking about it when I decide to just take myself off their list. Okay, so I still have unresolved issues from back then, but I have a lot issues from back then that had nothing to do with school and maybe school just made all that other stuff all the more painful. I can forgive the past, there is no sense in dwelling on it and getting upset, but that doesn't mean I am going to go running off to the reunion - not even for curiosity's sake.
