I stayed friends for a number of years with a couple of guys who were with me in the sixth form. The friendship ended when they spiked my drink with acid at a party.
Very bad deal, did you come out the other end in one piece?
Do you keep up with old school buddies?

I'm like the OP.
Lived in a smallish village, went to a small school. I used to be a goth in a school full of neds, every day seemed like a nightmare. I didn't have many friends and my friends turned their backs on me when I was ill.
I've met some of them on Bebo but I would never speak to most of them in person. I tend to move about from place to place, make friends and when I leave don't really speak to them again. I don't mean it but can never seem to keep in contact.

No not really. I suck at stuff like that. Still have a group of good friends but those from school I don't see much of anymore.

I actually get on much better with people I know from school now that I did at school.
Only a few of them, and not quite as often since I've been away at university.
Loads of people from my old school have attempted to add me to FB, even people from my school that I never spoke to, and people who weren't exactly nice to me either. I mean, WTF is the point? You never spoke to me then, so what makes you think you'll speak to me 4 years later?

Yeah I do keep in touch with people, people usually know that aswell so ask me for gossip 
Although I am deliberating deleting some friends on FB as they never get back to my msgs but somehow manage to update their statuses :/ what is the point?

Tbh I didn't realise that over 90% of people in my year in secondary school were total idiots until I left. I moved to a totally different college for a new start. I'm enjoying it loads and all the people there a genuine.
So to answer your first question, no I don't keep up with old school "buddies".
Just move on, there are much better people out there.

Luckily, yes I did, thanks to a kind person who managed to get me home in a taxi.
I keep in contact with a lot of people form school, mainly on facebook but we meet up a few times a year. Although it seems to be getting harder with people moving abroad/around the country with work.
edit: I'm one of the ones that moved away!

Im godmother to my best mate from secondary schools kids, ive seen her and both kids pretty much every week at least once since the oldest child (nearly 8) was in her Mums tummy.
I also spoke to my best mate from primary school today, and am planning to go and visit her when she moves house.
I speak to a few on facebook from time to time, but those two I can say I am still in regular contact with.

A friend said to something which I agree with, the only people you should add to your facebook are those that you would want to go for a drink with.

I moved up North from down South at the age of 17 so ended up leaving most of my mates behind. It was interesting from the quite largish social group I hung around with how only 3 people make the effort to keep to still keep in touch with me.
I have all my old school mates on facebook etc but only the ones that made any effort in return to keep in touch are the ones I still go down to see and regularly speak to. It kind of showed me which ones were true friends etc.

I left college for work last year whilst my two better friends from there stayed on.
May call them during my lunch tomorrow to grab something to eat in Burger King.

Then who cares and ignore them, I went through a stage when i was younger where i wanted everyone to like me, i got to 16 and just decided I couldn't give a **** and if peole didn't like me for who I am then I don't want to know them.
Never worry about who likes you just be sure you know who you like and who you can trust.
