Not necessarily bitter, infi, some of us are just disinterested.
When I've bumped into a few school chums by chance with whom I've not kept in touch it has swiftly become apparent why we did not keep in touch - nothing in common.
I don't think I went to any school reunions - or if I did it was within a very few years of leaving school. I wouldn't go to one now, but I am going to a schools' orchestra reunion soon.
I have reconnected with an old school friend on FB and we are playing word games. This is fun, and it'd be nice to have a beer/wine together at some point, I think. We may meet at the orchestra thing.

Oh, and Sarge! Some of the people who went to my high school are now HOllywood, Oscar winning actors etc. That doesn't make me a failure any more than your old chum's career makes you one. Monster is right - our paths are different.
