I had a high school boyfriend and our friends wanted us to go, but I didn't want to go and so we didn't. I am not sure why. I think I was too much in love if that makes sense. We were together for years. We probably would have married if I hadn't went to college and told him we should date other people for a while. That's beside the point. What this thread really reminded me of was, I took my mother to her annual reunion the year after last.She was homecoming queen for her high school. Of the photos I have seen in her she was beautiful and in full regalia.
During her reunion year after last, I got a whole new perspective of her when all she has to do it sit and watch the people flutter about her. All she had to do was be her sweet charming self. ( in her 70's even - It was fun to watch people reminiscing but I wished I knew what they were remembering because my mom always said she was shy, but the people liked her real well. I had a great time watching Ms. retired homecoming queen.
