Did the nerd get rich? Did the cheerleader get fat?

Were any of you jealous of the football players and cheerleaders?

No, not really. Well, some of the guys did get fat and lose their hair. The pretty girls still seem to be thin and pretty for the most part. Successful, too. ETA, from what I can tell on FB anyway.

I have no idea. High school was a long time ago.

Smile Lol -

All my sibs but me fit that profile. All doing fine. Used their social skills and moved on; all normal, functioning, not snobby types though.

They went on with their lives and didn't look back. IOW, they do not overglorify those years.

Quite a few of us went on to college and graduated, but even some of those were in the group who became alcoholics and they are all dead now. Many of the 60 in my graduating class in high school kept in contact through the years. Some still live in that town and keep track of almost everyone. I didn't attend the annual reunion until the 30 year meet came up and it was fun to be there.
One nerd became a physician and one girl who was popular became very fat and never appeared at any later get together. She married a fellow who was a grade below us in school and even then he was quite overweight.

I went to Hollywood High School. I did not know any of the popular people. John Ritter went to my school.

Well for the most part, their good luck continued and most of them have the good jobs and spouses and still have the good looks and other good BS. I have not been as fortunate. Our 10 year reunion is in summer and there is no way in hell I'm going to it. I'm not wasting a night seeing that I'm less fortunate than those who were born into privilege.

Go to the 20-year reunion, and I can almost guarantee that major parts of the above will have changed. 20th reunions are lots more fun, anyway - people have figured out who they are by then, and are far less judgmental and open than they were earlier.

High School was just a holding pattern before college. I am sure there are fat, thin, bald, rich, poor, dead and near dead out there

I don't do reunions. The people who wanted to keep up with me did. The people I wanted to keep up with I did. Im sure there are a few others out there but I don't do Facebook either
