My Mum always said...

When I left school that me and my school friends would all drift apart and go our separate ways. I never believed her and would shudder at the thought.

Looking back now.... Out of my large group of probably 20 girls I am in contact with only 2. The rest I couldn't care less for and am amazed when I look back... WHY exactly was I friends with them?

Hmmm... Just an interesting thought i think!!

x

when i left primary school only me and one other girl went to the same school..but the funny thing was that i was lookign forward to not seeing most the of them again..

..as for the mates i have now i cant bare to think about losing them in any kinda way..

its called evolution. Things change

I left school last year, and i had a small close knit group.... going to different places this year has caused my friends and i to grow apart... we still keep in contact...

but i know in 5 years i will probably only still be friends with one of them :o|

last year when i was still in 7th form i thought that we'd pretty much all stay in contact and go out to town heaps cause we were a great bunch of 7th formers.
but now in 1st year uni i see 3 of them in my course, i don't hang round them at all, talk occasionally. for the rest of them, we can't even be bothered catching a 2 stage fair bus ride to go see them occasionally. so pretty much lost regular contact with them.

i dont' know why, i don't really care too much either. i'll c them when i c them on those occasional run into each other moments.

same here moo none of my school mates like dance music so fuck them hehe

its about me these days !

well im still at school, so il guess il have to wait and see

its a huge difference coz i left half way through last year and i cant be assed keeping up with them....coz i know most of them are still at school and will be little shits! its amazing how much u grow up when u leave school.

if they are not in the scene or havent been a best buddy then.....cya

been outta school for quiet awhile now and only keep in touch with one..kept in touch with all my tech mates and there still the greatest bunch of mates..so i guess as time goes by you do loose touch with old mates..but now i have the bestest mates in the world who absolutly go off..cheers to them..

I was an outcast at school.

we had our own little group, but wasnt in with the "popular" ppl.

But i didnt care.

Anyways, I dont keep in contact with any of them. Only talk to 1 person every now and then.

Knge
- : )

I'm still in contact with many friends from school, even though I finished secondary school about 7 years ago. A few of us are into the whole "dance" thing as well.

in high school i was like in the lil "dunt talk to me im to cool for u" cliquey thing for like a year then i got over that and hung roudn with ppl that no one wanted to no .. i actaully talk to most of the ppl who tohught they were al that and most of them have grown up so bad some have but u cant win them all

i keep in contact with most of my close friends from high school. I spent most of my childhood with these people, so we have filtered the crap and become good friends (if you know what i mean)

i had a big group of friends in school but i only make an effort to stay in touch with two of them. if i see the others great but if not oh well.

moo - im in a similiar boat -it is quite ironic, why were they friends?

yep the people who i hang around with now are more important than those who you were almost forced to become freinds with cause their were 150 people in your form. i still have good mates from school, but the ones i value most go to dance parties, or connected in a really special way.

Charnz - I think if you look back, at the time it worked, it's just that you grow and change x

i see my old friends as just fill in friends....someone to say hey to at school and to have a laugh...but thats all

most of them i wouldnt ever been seen with them (DORKS! ) na but its just that u find who ur real friends are and u keep them....bu everyone moves on and no one really cares that much about it.

its just sad though

At primary school i had a best friend jenny and she was my best friend in the whole wide world! When we got to college i still hangged out with her and stuff but she made new friends and things. then she turned real weird. and slutty and drugged fucked and dropped out of school.. Ive only seen her about once in three years. i had made other friends at school.. and then my loively friend megan who i love sooo much left and moved to england to become an actress :o( and i miss her! and i was also friends with kim from canada... she was so cool. she was my best friend. She moved up north i still talk to her.. but not very often :o( And i had another best friend called monika she was a year older than me.. and then went to boarding school i didnt see her for ages even though she just lived dotwn the road. She moved to japan abour 4 months ago :o( Everyone moves away. ANd then my school friends from last year.. I still see them and stuff like two of them came into work to see me today which was nice.. but they are all so differnet to me now. i still love them. xoxoxox :o) happydays

This thread got me thinking.

So today, i randomly turned up at my friends house She was out going for a walk.... but any who when she got back me and my other friend (who i 'picked up' on the way) had a good old chat, and we've made plans to do something.

It was interesting talking to this friend (Laura) cause it turns out she's been trhough a lot of things i'm going through at the moment.

Weird how old friends can come back and help heaps

Yeah, it is always good to catch up with old school friends but most of us never do it often enough. A lot of the time you just have no interest in doing it either. People change

aims thats sooooo nice!
