[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're romanticizing this.  It is quite possible you would have had a great time but many of us felt like outcasts.  And a lot of us carry that high school image of ourselves into our adult life.  What was so interesting at my 40th reunion was to see how some of the folks who were not the most popular in high school had a pretty good life.

In the senior class poll, I was voted third weirdest girl - probably because I was a jock and really political at a time when girls weren't supposed to do either.  So I didn't fit in much of anywhere.  Now in my 60s I'm very happy because - thanks to being a weirdo girl jock - I have continued to work out and feel really good. I wish I could bottle this and share it with today's teenagers and tell them to just keep doing what they do - things will get better.

Okay, so it's possible you would have had a great time.  It's possible you would have had a lousy time.  But I suppose you did lose out on a common experience whether it was good or bad and I can see regretting that.  [/quote]
