[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree with the idea that one “outgrows” their high school friends and somehow moves on.  The most impressive people I have met in my life who are truly self actualized have continued to grow and improve as people and have a gift for carrying friendships forward from all periods of their lives.  In many cases, the high school friends, college friends, graduate school friends, and work friends have blended together in an ever widening circle. There is something special about friendships that one sustains since grade school.  I really believe that.  [/quote]

Well sometimes you don’t meet your “people” in HS. I didn’t. My college friends were the ones who were in my wedding, along with friends I’d met in the workplace. I have gained  new friends in every stage of life but HS is more about surviving for many, as it was for me. My kids enjoyed HS and had a good friend circle but again the people they’ve met in college are the ones that I know are the real friends.

I would say it’s completely normal for college kids to see less and less of their HS friends. Completely normal and common.[/quote]
