Wish Me Luck [View all]

I am going to my 45 High-school Reunion tonight. I wasn't sure I wanted to go. I have been friends with one guy since we were five years old though, and he kept urging me to come. He was, along with 3 girls, the people I hung out with in high-school the most. All but 1 of the other girls are going. There are a few other pretty good friends coming too.

Plus one of the girls who I sat next to in homeroom because our names are alphabetically close, ended up in the same college so we became good friends there. She's going too. So I figured what the heck I will go.

The only thing is some of the people who I went to the abusive Catholic School with are going too, and they were snobs and use to pick on me a lot. My sister said likely they've changed as adults, and fuck them, if they still don't like me. My friend said he will take out anyone if they hurt my feelings,🤣, but still a little nervous. I am not a classy dresser, nice pants and a clean and pressed blouse are about it, and am overweight, but I make an effort to look at least ok. Hopefully that will be enough. 🙏. I am also not sure what to say because I don't work any more because of my severe depression and anxiety, so what do I say if asked about work? I really don't want to mention the depression, though, so I may just blame my bout with meningitis, and not being able to drive anymore, (which is true) or that I retired, but I am only 63. Not sure which. Any ideas appreciated?

Wish me luck. My friend is picking me up, but I will have my sister on standby in case I want to leave early.
