In my most recent post I spoke about how I became depressed after having to leave school due to money issues. This weekend the school I left will be coming into town to play at a football game and I don't know if I should go or not because I definitely know my old friends will be their but I don't know if I have the courage to speak to them. I'm happy their coming at the same time I'm still angry at how they so easily forgotten and abandoned me like they did. I'm so confused on how I should feel.

I hear you, I think it'll be good for you to be able to go. I'm sorry for what happened and how it all went down. I think you should go to the game for you.

IF U CAN AFFORD TO GO....YOU MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN...PEOPLE ARE JUST BUSY NOW A DAYS AND HAVE A LOT ON THEIR MINDS. YOU MAY BE SURPRISED AND RECONNECT WITH SOME OF THEM.

Remember they were in school too, life goes on, go meet them, i am an MBA professional sitting idle at home in my mom's house, watching porn. by all means you are way better than an educated idiot.

you can learn when you have enough money i saw people doing things in their 30's and 40's and even in their 80's, why be ashamed of it was the circumstances not you who made the choice. just don't waste your time it was money that you didn't have earn it and do what you wanted to do the most

I encourage you to go if you can afford it. If you don't try you'll never know. If your friends are there and they ignore you they were never true friends. Much support and hugs.

My memory of college days is that I was so busy that unless you were physically near me (ie room mate, in class together, cross paths on campus, etc) I likely did not have the time to contact you. It was not being mean or selfish other than the intense time demands of college education.

By all means go!

I just wanted to thank everyone who commented so far. This weekend turned out to be awesome and some of my friends that were in the band put their instrument down to come hug me. I also found out that the band director is my frat brother and he offer me money to play in the band for a scholarship so I could finish school. Thank you everyone I really mean it. I guess good things do happen every once in a while.
