After graduation, do you still keep in touch or contact with your high school friends? I'll be graduating next year and always wondered about that. I'll probably go to some colleges with them but you'll never know.

Only keep in touch with a few of them. Our graduating class was not very close like my sister's was. She keeps in touch with a lot of them. Probably 1/2 to 3/4 of them.

Well, I had maybe 2 people in my HS that I considered friends. I keep in sporadic contact with them. Couple of friends from surrounding HS, also sporadic contact with them. I can't remember where I heard it but I find it exceedingly accurate: "High school friends are preparation for college. College friends are for life."

Edit: I graduated HS in 1992.
 
I have a few friends that i talk to since we've graduated. The few that i thought were "really good friends", well yea we dont talk much anymore....
 
i see my high school friends still. some of them. especially when we are all on break at the same time. i've drifted away from most, but my core group (the lan party crew since 8th grade), i still see them party with them when they are down.

i'm graduating college in 3 weeks. so yeah 4 years, AIM and cell phones help.
 
I've talked to one guy i graduated with. We worked together most of high school, so that is why we kept in touch. Other than that, not a single person.
 
10 years later and I talk to a grand total of one person that I went to high school with.

He was my best friend and still is.
 
I hope so man! I graduate this Friday ! 😀

Did you guys have something called project graduation or something similar to that after the ceremony? We all go to the schools gym and stay there until 6am, they have tons of raffles and crap like that. Basically it's the last time we will all be together.

My brother did. He said it was great. They gave out dell systems, laptops, pdas, watches, microwaves, etc. They also had a hypnotist which my brother said was funny as hell. This was at Clear Lake.

yeah..it was the Senior all night party when i was in school.

It was pretty damn boring.
 
The only ones I still talk to are like my closest core group of buddies. It kinda helps too when we went to either the same college or nearby ones. I talk and hang out with several others when we all come back for the summer, but I think that's just because we're all bored...Like Feldenak said, the friends you make in college will probably last for awhile.
 
I kept in touch with 1 friend, he's my roommate/landlord now.

You tell yourself that you're going to keep in touch, it's not that easy.
 
15 years after highschool I don't talk to any of the people I went to school with. I used to talk to one or two people but it's been 5 or 6 years since I have really spoken to that person. You always meet new people and get to know them. After highschool/college people are in different walks of life. It is easier to hang out with people who are around you.
 
serious. that depresses me. thing is my core group of friends will prolly stay in touch. im in a "gifted" class so ive hung around the same bunch for almost 4 years. some longer.
 
I graduated from high school last year. I'm probably closer to my high school friends than my college friends.
 
i keep in touch with a few. of course, one is my next door neighbor, so i dont really have a choice. the other 5 best friends i have are scattered around the states, but we still keep in close contact. all grew up together, and all arrange meet-ups and still hang out with each other. still awkward seeing those other friends you drop outta contact with and see at the grocery stores and such and having those "fake" conversations (how you doing, where do you work, college?, blah blah)
 
my high school is one of the top feeder schools to the university of texas. so in addition to keeping many of the friends i had in high school i made friends with a bunch of other people who went to my high school.
