nope, never went to my 10th and don't care. Like you said, anyone I want to have contact with from HS, I already do. My wife is trying to drag me to her 10th reunion in CA in a year or two and I really really don't want to.

I feel the exact same way. One of my proudest achievements in life is that I don't even receive the invitations to my class reunions, which means either no one remembers me, or they can't find my address.

Either one is perfectly acceptable to me.

I am in the middle. I don't like reunions but I do enjoy finding out what various acquaintances are up to.

Most people go to reunions to see who got fat and bald.

I've got my 30 year one in two weeks and I'm attending. I moved back to the town I grew up in so its not out of my way at all. I still have a great time when I get together with my friends from HS and we remain close after all this time.

It is strange that after twenty or thirty years the same cliques will still be there with people and some won't attend because they care what others may say about them. We never grow up when it comes to somethings.

It might save time if you just look for those who didn't.

I went to my tenth. It was pretty dull. My wife said she would never go to another one with me as long as I lived. For the 15th somebody collected a bunch of "memories" to put in a book. My best freind and I both submitted our best memories which sort orf lampponed our class and they told us they wanted to edit our submissions. We said print it all or print nothing. They printed it all. I have not been invited back ever since. I have a 30 year that should happen next summer but, as far as I can tell, there isn't going to be one. It is also possible that I am just not invited. If there was one, and I was invited, I would probabyl go, unless it was too hard to get to for some reason.
