Hi Barbara,
We are alike in so many ways! I, too, was an outcast who wished she could start over. Although my high school friends and I eventually drifter apart, I think we stayed in touch for far longer than most high school friends do. The person with whom I have been friends the longest I met in grad school; we've been friends for about 32 years now. It's hard to believe it has been that long. We live on opposite sides of the country and haven't seen each other in person in a number of years, but whenever we speak on the phone (or e-mail, or occasionally Zoom), it is as if no time at all had passed since the last time we were together.
I wish you and I had been in the same high school. I am sure we would have hit it off.
Joy,
Lynn
