My Homecoming Reunion

This year, my high school is inviting my graduating class to attend Homecoming for a reunion. How I feel about it is that I am excited and nervous about it, at the same time. Why I excited about it is that I will see my friends from my class again and that they will see how thin I am now (because the last time most of them saw me, I was still overweight). Why I am also nervous about is because I am afraid that one of them will do mean things to me again because they might have "unfinished business" to take of with me, especially since one of my classmates tried to ruin my graduation day by disliking me for no reason, which was stupid because after that day, we haven't seen each other ever since. Plus, while I was walking to the football game (while I was a freshman in college) to pay to get in, I saw one of my male classmates (that I was friends with) and he didn't say hi to me, even though one of my friends (that was a senior at my high school then) saw hi to me; so, I don't think that he remembered me. Also after I saw that my high school uploaded my class' Homecoming reunion page and put two of my friends' email addresses on there, I decided to email one of them to see how she was doing after we graduated and see if her and I could keep in touch via email and she didn't email me back; so, I don't think she remembers me either. So because of those reasons, I think that going to my graduating class' homecoming reunion will be interesting.

It is in human nature to take advantage of weak people. I get the impression that you care a lot about what people think and you are vulnerable to other's opinions of you, which maybe you try to conform to? My advice is to stop caring about who will or won't say hi to you, and stop being scared that your high school friends will want to do something to you. They already forgot about you, and you are still cowering in fear (no offense). Its time to live your life free. Once you begin projecting more self confidence and less vulnerablility/weakness, people might actually start liking you.

How do you know that people don't like me?

It just seeps through everything that you write. When you write, you write in a victimized tone and everything that comes out just ends up sounding like it...plus if people actually liked you you wouldn't be so worried about what they are going to do to you.
