Its nice meeting new people, but its not the same since you grew up with many people you don't see again
I agree wholeheartedly with this statement.
At school, I knew every last person in my year, right throughout my educational life-time (some 750-ish people in total). I knew all their names and loads about them and, being the attention-whore and troublemaker I am, they all knew me.
By the time college started, I saw only about 9-10 of them on a regular basis (as they went to the same college and we hung out).
By the time college finished and the post-college parties ended I saw only 2 of them every so often.
And in the past......1, 2, 3......
5 months since all that crap finished, I've spend about 2 hours with 2 of them some 3 months ago.
And they weren't just passing aquaintances either. Some of them I'd known since my first day of school. Hell, one of them was my best friend for 13 goddamn years. I've not seen any of them in 3 goddamn months.
........Someone remind me why I've not killed myself yet?
