The Niggardly King 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Have you ever just been walking around a store or just like in your area and you see someone you knew from high school but you didn't really "know" them Then they see you and want to have a conversation with you like you were their best fucking buddy but in reality you sat behind them while in history class and just bummed notes of them from time to time but you really do not want to talk to this person but they cannot just catch the hint It's not that you hate them or they were an asshole as far as you know they were generally okay but they had one big fucking problem... they were boring as all hell and I mean really fucking boring... you'd think that not seeing this person for a while they might have just developed a personality late in the game but know they're still the boring fuck that you knew from junior year that would make you fucking yawn whenever they tried to be humorous or just make you rather watch paint dry whenever they go off on a boring story from their boring life I hate that shit I feel better now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 I always find it weird if I have someone from the high school days turn out to be the gas station attendent. You kind of nod your head at the guy but you are really thinking "well, that loser sure bottomed out already"... it makes you feel better for a bit of time. I agree about the awkwardness of unwanted forced convo with those people you barely knew in HS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BruiserKC 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Or how about this...when you run into someone from HS that you just absolutely hated and they act like they're so happy to see you they're about to piss in their pants? Case in point...picking my son up this morning from Sunday school after Mass. I happen to run into a girl that was a year behind me in HS. She's married now and she's picking up her stepson. She sees me and starts talking to me and my wife as if she's been best friends our whole lives. The truth was this cunt was the best friend of a girl that I had the biggest crush on and went out with a couple of times. She screwed things up by her big mouth where one day I told the girl to go screw herself and lost her friend in the process. Her husband is not saying a word the whole time as she rambles on and on. This goes on for about 10 minutes, then I find a way to exit gracefully with my fam. After we left, my wife asks me what she was like in HS...I tell her, "She was an annoying bitch."

Twisted Intestine 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Ugh, I hate that girlfriend's best friend. I knew one of them before.. she was such a cunt. I also lost my girl by telling her off. I was soooo in the right though, and now, a couple years later, my ex is no longer friends with her and when I talked to my ex last I brought it up and she admits that her friend was a bitch and I was right. Haha.. that makes me feel a little better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slayer 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 I can count on one hand the number of HS classmates I've run into since HS (1997), though that's not entirely fair since I moved out of state for three years. Regardless, I consider myself lucky for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Had that all the time when I used to live near my high school. The weird thing is that the people I was friends with... they usually don't want to talk much. But, the people I hardly knew, or don't remember at all... they babble on and act like my best friend. Except for some of the really rich kids, and tennis friends... I gladly ignore everyone from those awful years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EricMM 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Oh come on, whats wrong with saying, "Hey, how are you. You look good. Maybe I'll run into you again sometime, have a nice day." I guess it depends on where you meet them. If it's at a bar, I'll sit down and shoot the shit, depending on whether or not I liked them. If they're behind me in line at some supermarket, I may not want to talk as much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 I don't talk to them. I didn't want to be friends with them in high school and I know I don't want to be friends with them now. So why should I waste my time pretending I give a damn what happened in their life? And if they treated me like hell, I'm just going to keep walking unless they physically stop me. Then I'll smile, nod to their bull, let them think they were nice and great in high school if they want and go on with my life never to deal with them again.

EricMM 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Why so bitter to people you meet on the street? Maybe they don't have bullshit, maybe they're just trying to say hi. Maybe they were great enough in highschool... But I never talk to ANYONE at work, especially if they're behind a counter. Luckily as I advance in life, more of my friends work behind desks, and THEY always have plenty of time to chat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 I pretty much eliminated the relationships from my high school days. Oddly enough, I got a call from one guy just now who I hadn't spoken to in at least 8 years, and another one I've kept in touch with over the years was one of my groomsmen.

Luckily as I advance in life, more of my friends work behind desks, and THEY always have plenty of time to chat. My guess is if you never talked to or despised someone they have to know that. I know if I saw someone who couldn't stand me in the street, the last thing I would do is bother stopping them and trying to chat them up. Something like this happened to me with this girl who was a HUGE bitch to me back in HS. I think we had perhaps one lengthy conversation but that was only because my whole table had to do a project in Chem. Lab as opposed to just me and my usual partner. She stopped me, offered me a fake hug and started telling me about her husband, and her house, and her job and her 2.3 kids, blah blah blah, all the while I'm thinking "does it look like I care, and if so how do I change that?" We weren't friends, we never spoke but now 10 years later she wants to give me more of a conversation in Union Square in the middle of rush hour than we had in SIX YEARS of school together. To me that's just being fucking retarded and people like her should be cockslapped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 All but one of my closest friends are people I hung out with in high school, so I see no problem with that. Then again, I just graduated two years ago. But yeah. I've run into a few people that treated me like shit in high school (see: claw end of a hammer) that chatted me up to see what life was like, and the moment I tell them I've played a show at the Palladium or that I pull in some decent cash their demeanor just drops down and they go "oh..." 'Tis a small bit of sweet revenge to know that the pricks you hated got fucked royally after high school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, most of my friends from high school went to the state university and have kept to themselves ever since. I find that the ones I run into are the kids that you'd never expect to see again. Those, to me, are the funniest conversations you can have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haha.. that makes me feel a little better. Man, I FUCKING HATE the G/f's best friend, every sigle girl I've dated always has a cunty friend that I had to put up with all the fucking time. I mean you can't tell them off, if they're hot you can't have a 3-way unless your girl is bi, but thats neither here nor there, and that only worked once for me anyway....... Anyways yeah theres Always a friend with FUCKING S.V.S., and the G/F always loves them to death too, it's retarded. sure it's not a new situation at all but I'm just venting, as I got screwed over because of telling off my ex's bitchy friend recently, after years of trying to get along, and pent-up frustration.
