I had many friends in high school, but at this point (I will now be a sophomore in college) I only keep in regular touch with about 5 people...
I guess we've all gone our separate ways.

How many friends from high school do you still talk to?

[i?xxxx?you]

I know what you mean. I still talk to some of my old high school friends. I talk to about 24...of them still haha

[ShadowMax76]

aha. sorta makes you miss high school, doesn't it? _a place where you'd see your friends everyday.

compared to waiting 3months for a break from studies for one or two outings. [but depends on how much you wanna stick with 'em, probably see 'em every weekend if ya really wanted to. but.. life after high school ain't exactly breezy]

_myself. eh. i liked my little group from hs. and they're the ones i see every couple months. we barely talk cos we're not big on that. lol. just eat together and laugh around. pick each other out of some after.h.s rut. _ 4 out of 6 friends i still keep in contact. if every few months counts. lol.

[BAZINGA!]

Aren't you...18?! Shouldn't you have JUST gotten out of high school? Or is it different there?

[MythnoonA]

three of them, and we've been out of hs a longish time. ><

[bittersweet ♥]

Still talk to them. Struggling to keep the friendship alive. To me, it feels like college friends are closer and more dear than high school friendships, even though i've known them since kindergarten. =/ Guess everyone does change in college :'(

o0' to me, college friendships feel strange. they're nothin' like old highschool friends. not my ones anyways. >>" _ my hs friends either complain of people being too polite or too ghetto.

LOL. You're too cute.

I LOVE my college friendships. They're MUCH better than my old high school friendships imo. College friendships meaning not just people I met at my college, but generally people I've become friends with since going to college I guess. I have met some of the coolest and funnest people since graduating high school and leaving for a college far far away.

I still keep in touch with about 5 close high school friends. I still see the rest of the other ones sometime since we're all in the same country now.

[x SaRaNg HaE x]

I had a huge group of friends that consisted of about 25 people?
I talk to around 10 of them now. (I'm a sophomore in college too.)

[sus]

hmm pretti tite nit with my group
prob like 12 of them still friends

[~>flytothestar<~]

yeah..some lol classmate i have them on facebook

[Aimiko]

Yep, I do keep contact with my old high school friends. I even kept contact with a friend from junior high lol? o.o
Right now, I still speak 3 old high school friends and hang out with them. With the others, I just befriend with them in facebook and w/e sites and sometimes we just talk. But not that frequently though.

[jaeka]

I left high school about a month ago, and I only keep up with *counts on fingers* 5 out of my gang? The rest I don't speak to cause... we don't need to, haha. We only spoke cause we all hung around together. Now, we don't bother. No loss though.

[Grace-san]

It's been a year since I've left my old school (over here we leave high school at 16) and I keep in regular touch with..only one of my old friends and that's probably just because she goes to the college I'm at now and we live near each other. I have the others of facebook but we barely ever even talk on that. I kind of feel bad but I was never that close to them anyway. We didn't really share interests and it's nice to move on sometimes. I think moving away from my old friends let me grow up.

[kanako28]

it's been two years since i graduated from high school, and i still keep in touch with them.

we are a group of 8 people and it's actually quite hard throughout the school year to hang out together.. o_o
we meet up like once every two months? everyone got this new group of friends, busy with studies etc. i used to have the feeling i got much closer to my college friends and my HS friends ditched each other lol. but everytime we (HS) meet up we can laugh and chat for hours about what happened for the past few weeks/months. so i really treasure these moments.

we are struggling.. but we maintain our friendship!
otherwise we talk on Facebook, MSN and SMS sometimes.. and try to share news about anyone of the group who would go MIA

[hellocatty]

I keep in touch with one person from HS because we got to be extremely close... and I'm still super tight with my group from middle school... my college friendships aren't that close yet but its slowly getting there

[[HyuNi]]

It's already been close to 7 years since I graduated from HS and it's sad to say that I only keep in touch with one friend, which interestingly enough, we had the same major and ended up going into similar career fields.

I was so completely different in hs. I was the timid introvert who didn't want to step on others toes.
Now I'm obviously different. Throughout college, I grew and expanded my horizons, finally got out of my shell and started taking some calculated risks. Basically, I grew up.

But whenever I would come home from school and meet up with old hs buddies, something was always odd, because they only knew the me as the quiet, agreeable, and generally un-noticed friend, which I no longer am. They expected me to be the old me, which I no longer was. I am a different person now, but they thought I was putting on some type of front or being fake.

So in the beginning, I was actually tried to please them and reverted back to my 'old' self. It was unbearably frustrating and so the friendship started to fade. It's not their fault nor mine, but I do feel kind of sad because they were a part of my life and I did grow as a person with them. I feel no hatred nor dissapointment in them and still wish them the best because they are doing exactly what I am doing... living our lives

But throughout everything, if I had to give one simple advice to anyone, I would say to NEVER burn bridges with anyone you meet. They can be the most annoying, mean spirited, downright evil person in the world... but if you be the better person and part ways in a respectful manner, nothing bad can come from it.... only good.
