Damn homey....

not really.. I don't care about people who was in school with me. Friends and some family matters.

Couldn't care about the others...
 
I know one or two like that.

But you must remember... to you they were like that, but to others you were that person.

This one dude I remember was a god to all the women, he was a bastard to me a few times... no biggie.
Don't think his family had a lot of cash but they definitely gave him enough.

At the high school reunion he came an made an awkward drunk apology to me. Odd because even though he gave me **** a few times I thought that by the end of school we were ok with each other... perhaps there was stuff I didn't know.
EDIT: He really wasted the opportunities he had, I don't envy him at all.

But then there have been a few people that I have run in to from school that I sort of remember, but have had issues with me... then I hear the stories that I was a complete bastard to them.. Its easy to forget the things you did to others.

Couldn't care less..

Being popular at school means very little in the real world... its the connections and ability outside in the real world that matter.

This.

I also couldn't care less. I get invites on Facebook every now and then, which I just ignore...don't see why I need to have them there if they aren't going to say anything or keep in touch.

I'm sure we all had them in high school. The rich/popular/smart/prefect/1st team/ ones.



I saw one of them from school the other day and needless to say, he was leading a very average life.



It's almost like he lost his shine over the years, which ironically was really sad to see.



I really thought that he would've made a success of his oppurtunities or become someone important in society.



50 cent had a great line that went something like this.



"Damn homey, in high school you were the man homey. What the f$%k happened to you??"





Ever wondered what happened to those kids??

Facebook solved that problem

sure, but they could just be sensationalizing their lives.

True. But the basics remain true.

Most of the girls got married. Some of the guys have more interesting lives. One or two fools already have children before 30 :p

you are so right. I remember getting together with people several years after finishing school and one of them was a girl who was two grades ahead of me.

She told me one day at school I made a remark about her infront of the other kids which scarred her for life.

She went home , cried and wanted to leave the school because of that.

She struck a nerve when she told me that story.

I choose my words very carefully nowadays.

Well what did you say?

Don't be too hard on yourself. A teacher is always a superior person simply because of his ability to shape and mould young lives.

It's easy to consider yourself average if the girl you've had a crush on for the last 2 years announced her engagement to someone she has known for only 3 months ... 2 days ago.

Yes, she has known that I wanted to go out with her for a very long time ... and I also told her in no uncertain terms how I feel (and have felt) about her just a week ago. But she already knew that.

All the clichés about being stuck in the friend zone ... ? All are applicable to me.

Hah, that woman doesn't know what she's missing out on imo. I have found that women usually choose men who are confident and make them laugh. The next thing that they look at is your appearance, followed by your financial status.
 
Yeah a lot of them...

Don't want to go into detail because I don't care.

The girl that got the best matric results quit varsity after 6 months of biotech and ended up doing HR at CPUT.
The 2nd "Smartest" guy that matriculated is now working at a Woolworths store as a Manager.

This is a huge divide as the rest don't have jobs, have children, on drugs, jail, alcoholics, dead, parole, you name it. True Story.


Some of them really put that work in to afford a Golf MK1 (The Coloured Flagship Car).



On another note, why do I get the impression that Picard really really reeeeeaaaaaaaally hates his life?

But that's why I say that I'm average because I've got none of the things you mentioned.

I am not confident, I can't really make them laugh (at least not consistently) I don't have a house (not even renting), I've had to scheme and beg and work very hard to get a slight promotion in a state contractual position for a couple of months. And I'm already 36. I should have achieved a lot more, a lot sooner already.

I wish could blame something like depression for my lack of achievement, but alas, I'm seemingly fine.

I don't hate my life. I'm just very disappointed with myself.

You're judging yourself too harshly, it's not too late for you to achieve the things that you want to achieve. There will be other women.

Stop wallowing in self pity. Nobody wants that, least of all women who are looking for a strong perspective mate.
