when your friends are just phone #'s
during high school i lived in a small town (tsawwassen) and had the best group of friends ever. we'd always have so much fun together and party and blah blah blah. a year ago i moved to white rock and i thought it wouldn't be so bad... only half an hour away. but honestly i never talk to anyone ever anymore. does that happen to other people? after high school i mean? cuz i'm pretty sure all my friends still partyand hang out and stuff just without me...

That does happen to alotta ppl...sadly. Most of my high school friends live within a block or two within me but still we don't really hang out anymore. Maybe like once or twice a month...but yea. Everyone's always busy with work or they're too lazy to set anything up.

Definitely.
I had tons of circles of friends in highschool I had some great times with. A month after I graduated, I moved out of White Rock and have honestly kept in touch with maybe three people I went to highschool with on a consistent basis. Although we had some great times, and I have no issues with anyone, I really don't have anything in common with those people anymore at all. I live in Vancouver and live my own life and do my own thing, whereas a lot of them are still in White Rock doing the same old thing. I had a lot of close bonds with people, but honestly, I'm really not phased by not keeping in closer touch with them, it would be kind of awkward and boring. I've moved on with my life and all of that...It is not that I wouldn't be friendly if I ran into them, it's just that we really don't have much in common anymore. I find that things change once you're not stuck with them in highschool, it's like one of those things where you make lemonade when life gives you lemons-you're stuck in highschool so you get close with those you're around all the time, but once your world broadens, you'll find less of a need to be surrounded by those people. |

Okay, I'm getting slightly off topic--what I meant to keep saying was: we do all have school and work and whatnot (as you know--you pretty much work full time now, do you not?), and even though we may talk to each other more often in tsawwassen, we don't really hang out or party even a quarter as much. Actually, a lot of the time we talk to each other because we randomly see one another somewhere... I don't know if I'm making as much sense as I want to, or even reassuring/comforting you in any way, and I don't even know if you wanted me to reply to this at all. But I did, so....yeah. Ugh, can you tell I'm tired? :284: Anyways, I'll talk to you soon. Big hugs to the little one! -Kyla |

totally.. i live in a very close/tight community and i dont get informed of any exciting events anymore. this week i actually started talkin to a few kids from highschool and it looks like everyone is scattered... the majority of my highschool friends are away playing sports as well. we're gonna have a big drunkfest in dec..so im kinda excited for that. amazing how the guys suddenly get a lot more mature/good looking when they are out of highschool. its disgusting how close i live to everyone, yet i dont see any of them around.

gonna add to this... ure title is sooo true. my phone book in my cell is full..but yet when i want to hang out with ppl i dont have/dont know who to call. i swear around 75% of the numbers i have in there i haven't called in teh past 3 months...but they're still numbers i would keep.

I never realized how much thing would change after high school. I always heard it from other ppl, telling me how you lose touch with ur friend and what not, didn't really think it would happen to me. I always thought my crew was tight and we would always be that way, but no. It's been 5 years since high school now and I only talk to one of my close friends on a regular basis. Some ppl went away for school or just moved, some got pussy whipped and others just lost touch. Life's funny that way, kind of sux. But the odd time u do have a chance to chill with an old friend it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much fun, I can just sit for hours and talk about old times and funny things we had done. Lets get a fuck you to growing up :finger:

When I was in high school I was kind of the social reject.... it sucked. When growing up in Mission you have to be just like everybody else... preppy and a hockey player. I was neither and I came to school with purple hair, black finger nails. I didn't listen to the tragically Hip, I listened to Marilyn Manson....
When I graduated I had no self confidence and thought I was some sort of loser..... the I moved AWAY from Mission. I suddenly realized that I was a lot cooler than I thought I was. The friends that I did keep in high school I see once in a while but I've come to realize that I'm not like them and I don't want to spend my life living in the same small town... I mean working in a mill isn't one of my life goals. I've moved on to bigger and better things :kimmie: |

they still live down the street and we'll run into each other but it seems most of my highschool friendships were based on common geographic area and age rather than similar intrests soo sad but true |
