I went to my 5 year reunion. It was too soon. The boy I crushed on from 2nd grade through our senior year confessed he always wanted to ask me out but was intimidated because I always had boyfriends from other schools. Of course, I was engaged to my first husband when he made this confession *sigh*. He was much higher caliber than any of those boys I dated. He should have asked me out. He's a CFO for a very large company now.. makes millions. He really should have asked me out.
I missed my 10 year reunion because I was on my honeymoon with my second husband. I went to HIS 10 year reunion and it sucked because, although I knew his buddies' wives, they were off socializing with people they hadn't seen in a long time.
I attended my 20 year reunion and had big fun. The women all looked fantastic, the guys were all balding with beer bellies. I didn't recognize most of the men. I had a really good time though. It helped, I think, that the women in my group of friends decided to leave the husbands/SOs at home. They wouldn't have known anybody so they would be dragged around listening to people reminisce without being able to contribute, etc.
My 30th should be next year. I will go.
