About 75%. It was fun. Most people still lived in the area then. At other reunions the numbers dropped every time as people left the area. Less fun each time. I have only been out of school 40 years. I have heard it gets better once you pass 50 years. It may be people are just happy to see who is still alive.
I went for one night. Saw everyone I wanted to see. I'm not one of those bitter people who say, "I hated everybody I went to high school." That says a lot more about their own arrested social development as people than it does about their classmates. I mean, if you're still bitter about high school at age 25 or 28, go see a therapist because you're the one with major snakes in the head.
But, at the same time, high school wasn't the end-all, be-all time of my life. It was something I did for four years and then moved on. There are a handful of people with whom I really stay in touch from high school. 3-4 tops. The rest I kind of keep up with on Facebook.
I've only been out of high school for 4 years so no.
But a word of advice, Guys do not realize how inept they are with women in High School. No matter how much game you think you had, and also no matter how much of a limp noodle you thought you were, I assure you there were women that wanted to do it with you, but you were oblivious due to teenage stupidity.
If you are single, you can get an unimaginable amount of leg. And not just nice leg, but leg with a history, Forbidden fruit leg. The one that got away leg. I had no idea you wanted to screw my brains out for 4 years leg. All different kinds of leg.
Dunno, didn't go. Facebook has destroyed the point of going. You are already caught up with most people.
Our good friend was Class President so it was his job to put on the reunion party. He begged us to go then was bitter about the turnout so I assume no one went.
I went to a fairly large (1,500 senior class) school in Southern California. I lost interest to attend the reunions as each year went by. Some of it had to do with me taking longer to finish college than others. I got tired of hearing the question ''So what you been up to''. And then hearing about the awesome UC school they attended or awesome job daddy hooked them up with. Within the last year, I deleted almost all those people off my facebook anyway. Just a measuring stick, nothing else

I know a few people that are like this and never understood it. I think the main reason is because they either weren't as popular as they wanted to be or they were just introverted and never tried to make friends.
I was introverted and still had a great time in high school. Matter of fact, me and 9 other high school friends had a bachelor weekend for a friend that is about to get married this past weekend. Were 28 years old and even though a lot of the guys are married and have kids, we acted like we were 18 years old again. It was a good time.
Our 10 year reunion is coming up this year but I'm not sure if I'll go or not.

Or some of us got bullied relentlessly and have zero desire to relive those memories. I NEVER want to see those s again. I will NEVER go to any HS reunion. I'm just concentrated on moving forward.

Well, if that's the case, then you really need to resolve the anger that's plainly evident here. Because it will affect every single relationship you have for the rest of your life, and your life will suffer because of it.
