High School Friends After High School

[lyonbc1]

Went to a small high school and I knew pretty much everyone..but it's going on 5 yrs since I graduated and I keep in constant contact with 4 people, we always hit each other up. Funny thing is, I keep in touch with more people I went to middle school and elementary school than I do from my HS , but those guys will be friends for life since we've known each other since the third grade even though we all went to different colleges and different high schools

 

[nazdrowie]

I'm still close with all of them. We talk on the regular, we're like family.

My high school friends > My college friends.

actually somewhat the same for me. i try to drop in on the friends i had from HS once, twice a month when time permits.  

i actually only speak to one person from college and that is once every few months.

looking back at it, a lo of the people I met in college were to serve a purpose, mostly access to something, thats about it. i did meet some cool people though, hung out, but we then went our own ways. thats life.

Still kick it with a lot of them here and there. It's just that a lot of them went to UT/UTSA/UH and a handful of other Texas schools, and I was out of state. So I could kick it with anybody as I come in and out of Houston, but the relationships within a lot of friends changed over the years, so a lot of them don't kick it with each other. There was a huge circle of friends at first, and though I'm still friends with all of them, a lot of them are like "Nah man, we don't chill anymore, [this] & [this] happened" and whatnot.

Most of my good friends now are from HS, but only a few of them are around. But the bond is unbreakable . Most ppl I meet in college are more acquaintances i'll hit up to hang more than anything.

Graduated 09 with a group of 7 and now it's 1 that I play CoD with

 

[destination kicks]

Hang out with like half the people I used to when I get back home. For the most part I hang out with kids from our rival high school. It's strange.

 

[secretzofwar]

I talk to two of my friends from HS almost daily, but see them maybe 5 times a year.

I still see most of my friends from college--but it also helps I went to school in Chicago so no one really went away. In fact, the real world has been mostly a continuation of college for me.

 

[championboyz7]

I had a group of friends that I hung out with during lunch in class from 9-11 .
My senior year I got a job and I was barely in school plus different schedules I barely saw them and started hanging out with a different group in school which I still hang out with till this day in college. Im weird though cause I got friends who I hang out in school then a different group outside of school.
Outside its my older brothers friends who I consider my close friends almost brothers too. and also my best friend from elementary school who im losing touch with already. We use to play daily on xbox, it was a ritual for all of us from middle thru high school to get on at night and run some duty talk ****. Now we barely talk since his xbox broke and fights amongst the group so we all just grew up I guess.
I text him to see what's up and son doesn't even hit me back % 99 percent of the time.
But I guess we all gtta grow up sometime.
I barely talk to him and hes always saying he got mad dough and always working but when I say lets kick it hes always broke or out with his girl(I got friends who are MARRIED and aren't as whipped as him son). It sucks I look back all the friends that I used to be tight with are becoming strangers I get kinda depressed. And that's one semester into college...I don't think it gets any better from here on out.
Sorry for the vent. Had to let it out .

I lost touch with some people & kept in touch casually with some others, but I still talk & chill with my closest friends from HS all the time.

 

[ihatesneakers]

i always thought guys were bigger than that you know?
I'm the same kind of way, like people have to learn to respect personal boundaries, and after addressing something so many times there are only so few options left.
had a similar situation but it wasn't even an immediate friend in the group but an outside family friend of theirs.
long story short we squared up and dude caught the beats. and i always wondered would we still have drifted apart if i lost the fight

In the end they all act like little girls. Especially after catching a 2 piece to the jaw by someone half their size. 

Yeah, I felt bad but I told him multiple times to stop putting me in a chokehold. I thought about the whole thing and to me it's just stupid. I've known other people who we've kicked the crap out of each other over the last slice of pizza literally beat the **** out of each other seems silly but whatever. Afterwards we'd wipe the blood from our mouths and move on. Some people just act like little *** kids and have to brainwash all your other friends in that group. But my mom always taught me to be a leader and not a follower so I'm better than that. And if my friends all don't want to hangout with someone because of some stupid reason I'm not gunna follow them. I'll hangout with the outcast as long as I'm cool with them. 

Moral of the story is people just change. They move on, you start to realize that some of your "friends" are losers. I can't tell you how many people I was cool and would kick it with dropped out of college, got no job, and still live home and mooch off mommy and daddy. I actually get embarrassed being seen with them in public. It's either that or you lose friends to drugs, but thats a whole 'nother story. 

TL;DR: You suck eggs. 

 

[Kev93]

Circle consists of 6-7 of us and i chill with 3 of them on a weekly basis, but the VII are still going strong.

 

[delasole47]

Main circle in High School was 7-8 and I only chill with 4 of them on a regular. The rest fell out and did their own thing. I still say what up if I see other ppl I was cool with in High School

 

[newmoanyuh]

I'm probably only close to 2 people, that I talk to on the regular. The rest I can see randomly and have a conversation and hang out like old times again, but it's more like casual acquaintances now. I'm happy with just the 2 people I keep in regular contact with.

 

[rocman23]

There are 3 people I still hang out with after graduating high school 6 and a half years ago.

 

[T Lo Sweater]

Small crew of about 10 or so. Big shrink since I knew a lot of people back in high school. I see some of my old classmates and they don't say shhhh to me. Smh but it's all good

 

[shoeking2101]

"J.G.O." my crew from High School. Graduated in 10' and still going strong. Still talk/hang with all of em. About 5-7 of us. My dawgs for life.

My High School Friends>>College friends.

 

[purplenurple1414]

I only regularly talk to about 5 people in my class. Kick it with maybe two.
The rest I'll hear from sporadically, and of course most have just fallen off the map for me.
I'll say tho, those who I do talk to are my best friends.

 

[crystalmethod]

Mann.... There were 4 of us..
Chilled together ALL the time.. Everyone referred to us at "the team".. Cause we were always together.. No longer speak to any of them.. Got serious beef with the one I've known the longest...***** ****** up.. No matter how cool you are with someone, they can turn on you real quick

 

[guzzy]

^^^^^

Mind sharing the story??

Always wondered what type of things can push close friends apart

 

[crystalmethod]

Yeah.. ive been thinking about making it its own thread.. Will probly put it out soon

 

[rocksfan25]

I still chilled with half of them about 2-3 years out before I realized they weren't my friends. The half I barely saw I am still basically cool with, but they are not the type of guys I want to hang around. Dealers/wannabe dealers and/or coke heads.

My two best friends from college are a guy I went to elementary school with and another I was teammates with until he transferred in grade 10. Best man and a groomsman at my wedding.


Almost forgot that the only friend from my HS grad class that i was still good friends with moved out of the country this time last year. Doubt I will see him in the next few years.

 

[Thats My Word]

If you didnt smash them in highschool, forget about it... Haha

 

[kingjay718]

No contact whatsoever. Everyone moved on whether it be to have kids etc or work.

I do me.
