It’s been 15 years since I graduated high-school (yes, I just gave away my age) and I often wonder about my high-school friends.\u00a0 While I’m still “friends” with most of them on Facebook, I only hang-out with two of them regularly.\u00a0 Technically, just one friend since the other I met when I was in high-school, but we didn’t go to the same school.\u00a0 Basically, my stats for keeping in touch with my high-school friends SUCK.<\/p>\n
The funny part is, I really like all of my friends from high-school.\u00a0 All of them, even the ones I wasn’t really close with.\u00a0 I guess\u00a0naturally,\u00a0and with time, we drifted or lost touch.\u00a0 Something that unfortunately,\u00a0is pretty common.<\/p>\n
What’s NOT common is the amazing relationships that my husband, John,\u00a0has with his high-school friends.\u00a0 Just two weekends ago we went to a\u00a0BBQ hosted by one of John’s old high-school friends.\u00a0 About 10 of John’s friends from high-school, both female and male, were there (and if applicable) with their significant other and kid\/s. Not to mention, at least\u00a0four other friends from the group had a conflict and were missing.<\/a><\/p>\n I truly believe that the relationship that this group has, 15 years later, is very amazing.\u00a0 Something that’s truly special and\u00a0must be cherished.\u00a0 I’m in awe\u00a0of their\u00a0friendship, lasting the test of time.<\/p>\n And I guess, vicariously through my husband, I get to enjoy that special bond that they have.\u00a0\u00a0 Not to mention, the group now includes my closest friends as well!\u00a0 I hope that 15 years from now, I can write a similar post and will include an updated picture.<\/a><\/p>\n What about you? Do you still keep in touch with your high-school friends?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s been 15 years since I graduated high-school (yes, I just gave away my age) and I often wonder about my high-school friends.\u00a0 While I’m still “friends” with most of them on Facebook, I only hang-out with two of them regularly.\u00a0 Technically, just one friend since the other I met when I was in high-school, […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"It's 15 years later...do you know where your high-school friends are?
