running into old friends
have you ever ran into old friends you haven't been friends with for literally ages and it's the most awkward and horrifying experience ever? there's a funfair on literally over the road from my house and i went the shop and ran into about 8 people in the shop and i didn't realise it was even them until i walked past one and she literally said "oh" as i walked past her and then i just knew who it was and died inside. then i seen two more who were my best friends but we had a BIIiiiggg falling out over them accusing me of being a bully which was cute X so it was awkward to say the least
do you guys and gals ever experience this
-
no, i don't live in the same town I was brought up in.
wouldn't be awkward if I did though tbh.
-
virtually every single old friend i have is still my friend and i see weekly/every few weeks so it's not awkward
-
I live pretty far from my high school to not bump into any of them. And even if I did I doubt the majority would start chatting to me we'd probably just walk past eachother and avoid eye contact haha
Then I live in the same place as my old primary school but I was only there til yr 2 so even tho i occasionally do see a few people from there there's no convo again cos we basically dunno eachother !
-
usually just exchange an awkward smile and continue our seperate ways if i ever pass someone from my high school in public, i've kept in good contact with the people i was closest to so when i see them it's usually planned
-
Very rare I see people now but when I do it's like yeah, don't notice me please. Used to hate going into Tesco as quite a few of them used to work there.
-
Yesterday someone walked into work who I havent seen in 13 years. Thst was a bit strange and we both recognised each other.
-
Surprisingly I do see quite a lot of people I knew from high school or earlier in my life around which is crazy because I lived in NZ and now live in London but it's funny had I seen them in NZ I would just blank them but because we are on the other side of the world it's more often nice to chat and catch up.
-
just ignore each other or wave
-
I saw my friend from for the first time in like a year and a half and I was so nervous about going because I thought itd be awkward but it turned out to be fine!
I have seen a few former friends but I just ignore them.
-
i sometimes pass people i used to go to school with and usually we'll exchange a heya as we pass but that's it
sometimes it's people i used to spend every day with so it's kinda sad that we now have nothing to say to eachother
-
I have. One time I ran into an old friend, and I was actually so excited. Clearly the feelings weren't mutual. She could barely glance at me for a second because apparently I "bullied" her in secondary school. I honestly thought it was so rude...
-
i see old friends around occasionally, we usually just smile and carry on which i prefer over awkward conversation.
-
I do. Some awkward conversations sometimes... especially when my parents get talking and we're somehow forced to talk to each other, like.... hi... bye...
-
Haha, all my old friends live 2+ hours away so the chances are slim to run into them but when I do, it's always a positive, lively conversation.
-
It would be nice if I ran into an old friend. I've moved away from the town I grew up in so it's rare for me to run into anyone I know.
-
not alot really, just general chat
-
i literally see someone from school everytime i go into the city centre
going into town for a few drinks with my mate in an hour or so and i bet i see someone
