Is it the WORST???

[Levian]

I really like running into people I haven't seen in a while. And it's weird how you speak to people you've only just known who was. We were only 125 students in my grade so you got to know everyone's name by the end of the 3 years. The thing that does bother me, though, is that the conversation is really limited. It's like "Hi, how are you?" "What do you do now?" Then there's usually an awkward silence unless you start talking about some random crap. Still, if you get their phone number you can meet them again and talk about stuff you do care about. And that's what I like. I don't have a negative attitude towards my "enemies" back in school either. Especially not if they approaches me. People change.

I'm usually that person who goes up an initiates the conversation.

I don't really recognize people I went to elementary/middle school with, but if I were friends with them, I think I'd be happy to see them. Same with HS I guess...

[Dreddz]

Thats why I keep on look-out to avoid them...

HAHA dude, I thought no one else felt like this but me. Okay, usually when I run into childhood friends/classmates, it's sort of weird. Both me and them have changed like hell and usually you don't know what to say. It's awkward, and yeah I'll give them a smile but doesn't mean I'll be their friend again.

edit: I remember running into an old friend a couple months ago. And, basically it was like this.

*hug hug*
me: hey!
him: hey whats up, long time no see.
me: yah, nothing much man, how about you?
him: oh im good, happy valentines by the way.
me: yah, ditto. well see ya around sometime! *walks off*

Awkward...

[*ETERNAL FANTASY*]

lol i was in that situatution recently i literally said "hi" and walked off lol

...Friends? Elementary school? :chuckle:
Actually, just in summer school, I saw my enemy from elementary. He hasn't tried to insult me yet so I'm happy.

I just simply avoid people from elementary school. If I see them, I just keep walking and none of them ever want anything to do with me. I rarely see my old friends either, that or, again, I just want nothing to do with them anymore.

Depends on the person and my past with them.

[T-MaN]

I'd be ok with it. I wouldn't mind at all. It'd actually be pretty nice to see some old faces once again.

Hahah! sounds TOO familiar

I should do that!

it's just they catch me off-guard or surprise me

[Zeldy]

I saw a girl who went to a different high school in town after primary, we just said Hi and walked away. Its not that I wasn't happy to see her, I just was never really close to her

I think it's awesome when I encounter an old friend. Usually, it takes me awhile to recognize them since it's been too long, but when I do, I'd be happy to see them again.

[Christmas]

I have no friends.

[Alive-Cat]

I shall do my best to look after and cherish you, Christmas!

I agree with you. I got the biggest surprise of my life last year when I saw certain people that I knew in middle school after I transferred (and even one girl I had a crush on back in ms). And then on Christmas Eve, I heard from some old friends I went to school with back in 9th grade. It was the best, although a lot of those guys seem to hate me now except for the ones I knew from 9th grade =/ Makes no sense.

Personally I don't see what's so wrong with seeing old classmates, even if you didn't like them that much or if you barely knew them. If you disliked them for the right reasons, then yes, I could see that, but to be that way to someone who you barely knew but is probably trying to be friendly now after recognizing you seems incredibly rude and judgemental in my eyes.
