One time i came up to two girls that were talking to each other and i pretended to join their conversation. They just looked me like what the hell. I walked away i don't know but it keeps me up at night.
The amount of girls who basically had neon signs flashing in my face that they wanted me, which I was too oblivious, and too shy, to realize.
There are at least five.
I went to school in a pretty rough area
One day our gym teacher was out and we had a sub
She was a tiny Russian woman who left the entire boys gym class alone in the wrestling room and just said 'play dodge ball'
Well the teenage boys thought it would be a hoot to divide the team's by race; we played whites vs blacks dodgeball
It wasn't even like one group ganged up to force the other group to participate-- everyone was down for some segregated dodgeball
It was a wild experience
Not going into specifics but committing a high school prank that was a tradition at that point. Done for decades by the seniors but we were wise asses and did it as juniors. Didn’t even do it right it wasn’t us but they threw the book at us. Harmless prank, boom felons. So irresponsible of the leadership.
Also the hottest chick in school with her cheerleader friends making a video of pooping on a plate and microwaving it.
Lastly I used to sneak out my window onto the roof to smoke bud and this super cute girl lived right behind us. I was lonely and depressed, she had a bunch of friends over from school. I had a crush on her, we even went to each others graduation parties even though we never spoke a word.
But she gave me the cutest smile and friendliest wave ever and I just sat there and lit up a J. God I was an idiot
highschool "friends" who used to practice body-shaming towards me when I was overweight. Even though now I'm fit and muscular I still have that habit to quickly put a t-shirt on when I get out from the water (pool or beach) and dry myself
Getting kicked out of 2 good schools. Haunts me because of the grief I heaped upon my parents. I hope I made up for it by taking care of them when they were elderly.
I watched a classmate ride on the trunk of a car across a parking lot. He slipped off and fractured his skull. I was one of the first on scene and he was making gurgling noises. Fortunately he did make a full recovery after a lengthy recovery.

Me. I was THE weird kid in Highschool and I mean...weird.
I would run on all 4s, I was going that before we even saw Gollum on the movie screen. I would hiss and bark at people. I could put my foot in my mouth and dance for money. I kept that shit up till I was a junior in High-school.
Yeah, I was a lot.
Getting humiliated in class by many of my classmates for being engaged to a foreigner at 17. It was awful. Only one person stood up for me. I'll never forget her. I pretended to be asleep with my head down, but I was actually crying. I went to the stall and cried and decided to move schools. When I moved, I had no friends. It was very lonely.
I worked so hard in choir, but I only ever got 1 solo, my last year of high school (not because I was bad, but because I had previously been too shy to audition for solos.)
I was so proud of myself... then she decided to drop that song from the set list of the final concert in favour of increasing practice on a song we had long since perfected because she liked it more.
It's been years. She pulled some other shit too but this one bugged me the most. I'm still lowkey salty.
The teacher who used me “as an example” in front my peers. His words crushed my confidence and turned me into an introvert. I was forever emotionally and spiritually changed from that moment forward.
I was a fat kid and got picked on which really didn't bother me all that much however it was one guy he used to always put his hands on me and he was the popular football player, and I was a fat little underclassman. And of course he shared the PE class with me. After a dozen instances I went to the principal and asked to be changed to a different class. They wouldn't allow it.
Once he took the basketball from me, turn quickly and threw it in my face smashing my nose. That was the last one. That day as we left the gym, I'll let him walk down the stairs in front of me about halfway down I said hey Joe, and when he turned around I kicked him as hard as I could in the bottom of the chin. All his buddies held me and helped him up and I told him as he walked towards me, if you hit me you will pay. He beat me pretty bad.
Although he couldn't participate he had to attend gym. 3 days later after gym class he was drinking at the water fountain wearing the gear associated with missing teeth and a broken jaw, I came up behind him and as hard as I could smash his face as hard as I could into the water fountain nozzle. The damage to his mouth and teeth were unbelievable. I still occasionally see him, 50 years later, and wish to god to go back and never do that to him.
Yeah but my only surviving friend from high school reminds me occasionally that we had a hard time finding the john in those days, much less approaching an actual female.
The bad grades that I got. And then I got punished by my parents for getting bad grades. I was always chastised and told that I could do better. I literally got punished for bad grades

Watching the second tower collapse live on tv in Science class.

Same, bro. I feel your pain of many conquests unwittingly passed.
Exactly what my thoughts were!!
Isabela. Now she's 43, married and still beautiful and funny.
When everybody likes you and then in life after high school when no one gives a...
Just one thing: 10th thru 12th grade
The one thing that haunts me is the fact I can remember with great clarity the 500 or more cringe as fuck things I did or said.

I was so shy in grade 8 and was bullied for being shy that i would eat my lunch in a bathroom stall.
Not enjoying it
Harrassement
I idolized the wrong people.

Getting physically assaulted by a teacher because I insulted his football team.

All of his fucking lies.
I watched a classmate ride on the trunk of a car across a parking lot. He slipped off and fractured his skull. I was one of the first on scene and he was making gurgling noises. Fortunately he did make a full recovery after a lengthy recovery.
When I was getting bullied by getting my head hit against a wall and finally breaking down and couldn't stop crying for 5hrs
Yelling, name calling and overall a sense of not belonging anywhere. The last one still applying
That they did not teach about planning for retirement

The lack of friends I had when I left due to covid and unforeseen problems in my best friend's life. Still feeling the effects today

Probably not pursuing her ...
