    I really regret being like that. I graduated high school with almost perfect grades, because I didn’t talk to anyone and I just concentrated on studying. Now I have no friends, not even one.

      Though you are ok to feel that way, please know in just a little while everything from highschool is optional, and doesn’t matter at all.

      If it makes you feel any better, I didn’t focus on my grades, graduated with middle-tier grades and still don’t have any friends.

      don’t stress about it - I used to talk to many people, yet didn’t keep any friends from high school and only one from undergrad, with who I make contact like twice a year.

      It feels weird to keep in touch when you don’t have that thing in common anymore and live far away.

      To be fair, it’s hard to keep up with high school friends after high school. People change, they go to college, get jobs, get married, have kids, move away, go to prison, and die. So don’t worry if you’re not friends with people you went to high school with, that’s not uncommon.

        Gave me a chuckle to see “have kids, move away, go to prison, and die” listed as a typical life trajectory.
