Who here DIDN'T make friends in high school?

Today I was reviewing my situation in life and something interesting dawned on me: I didn't have any friends in high school, couldn't stand anyone really. Got out of school moved away, and made friends rather quickly. And kept several of them too. I am also good at making friends today when I choose to. Anyways, now that I'm back home I see people occasionally from my high school and it just amazes me how I have zero interest in these people, at all. It's also a bizarre time warp, like when I look at people from a not-so-fun period in my life, I start to regress back there too. I think High School reunions are gay, and people who spend out their lives amongst their crowd of high school friends don't know what they're missing. I mean, who really gives a crap what that Joe Schmoe did or where Marry Moe is today? They could not exist for all I care. Anyone else?

I met some of my best friends in high school, although I agree about reunions being pointless.
Since I graduated (last june) and came to college, I havent really made that many great friends. It all depends on circumstance I guess, you can meet great people anywhere

I had a small group of close friends in high school many of whom I still stay in contact with. I've always felt "different" from most of my peers growing up. I remember realizing this way back in Kindergarden.

i had friends in highschool, mostly the burnouts and non-jock types (and therefor the unpopular types)
i dont speak to anyone from those days tho, except three or four good friends ive had since childhood.
its funny cuz when i go back there to visit my parents for chrismas and thanksgiving, many people who shunned me back then now approach me at church or elsewhere, asking me what im up to. its great cuz then i usually blow them off or give a quick generic response and walk off like im to good to be talking to them...
my ten year HS renioun is coming up (got a letter in the mail regarding it the other day)
I wont be attending.

i had a handful of neighborhood pals in high school but by the time i reached senior year, all my friends either dropped out or got kicked out of school.
i remember my last few weeks of school thinking i couldnt wait to graduate so i wouldnt see these people ever again.

I'm a senior in high school right now. At the beginning of high school I had a lot of friends but I've lost almost all of them now. I finally realized that most of them are assholes and they treat me like shit so I don't talk to them anymore. Now I only have a few close friends but that is better than a bunch of asshole friends who treat you like shit. I wont miss anyone when I leave because the few people that are important to me I will still talk to.

i had few friends (acquaintantes) at my high school and 2 close friends elsewhere. went to a HUGE suburb HS and also a small suburb/farm town HS. I didn't start talking to people too much until i graduated. I stil don't socialize with people in college, but I'm a lot friendlier when it comes to meeting people outside the educational institution. Back in high school most of my friends were guys, as opposed to now mainly females. The only one I still talk to is my ex-bf.
i was the quiet, extremely smart, extremely lazy blue-haired punk. What more to say. i was feared and envied and otherwise made fun of. No one knew what to make of me...
I just keep to myself and now have an abundance of healthy friendships all of whom are at 7-40 years older than me. I have one my age.
Bleh, high school; glad it's over.

My highschool fortunately didn't have many cliques or anything. Just groups of random friends.
I had some good friends over the year, was kind of a loner but everyone always wanted to hang out with me. So yeah, each year I kind of hung out with someone different, not too many "best friends" I suppose. Not a loser, just liked being solitary so I'd hang out with whomever.
Now that highschool's over, it's so weird. I almost wish I could go back to grade 10 because I'd fucking rule my stupid ass school. But oh well, it's over. Didn't have a miserable time, but I know it could have been much more bareable with a friendlier attitude.

I'm not sure how to define a friend exactly, but I can tell you this: When you make a TRUE friend, everything becomes suddenly clear and you just know that this is a real friend. And at the same time, all your past friendships suddenly look lame and phony, because this friendship is so real and true compared to the others. In my opinion, true friends are as rare as meeting your soulmates. Well, they are soulmates in a sense. Thanks for the responses everyone, good to hear other stories for sure.
