I hated my very naice school, it was 3 years of utter misery plus 2 years of moderate unhappiness. I was one of the unpopular kids and just don't have many good memories of the place.
I've had an invite to the reunion for leavers including my year group. And I don't want to go. I'm in touch with a few school friends via Facebook, but have no desire to prance around the old dining hall reminiscing about pervert teachers and rugby matches or seeing my old boarding house or admiring the new science block or any of that.
However, I was chatting to a friend who said I should go, just because my life has turned out pretty well. She's picturing an American movie type scene of me strutting in wearing fabulous clothes, smiling with my no longer shit teeth, showing off pictures of my adorable dc and subtly dropping vague hints about my lovely high earning dh. She says I should go just to prove to myself how far I've come since those dark days, and part of me is tempted, however a bigger part of me just feels so 'meh' about the whole thing and I'd just view it as a wasted afternoon plus travel there and back.
Has anyone gone to a reunion and unexpectedly enjoyed it, or should I just leave the past as a distant blur?
