I just had to write this for everyone that has ever been the nerd. I was a complete geek in high school and the "in crowd" wouldn't even talk to me. I recently saw one of those who ignored me completely (I had a total crush on her) anyway she has let herself go to the point I would not have even recognized her. I am wondering, is it wrong that I feel good knowing that she wishes she was with me now, and I would have no interest at all? I think in some ways it is arrogant, but for those who have been rejected just because they didn't fit in maybe it is just a consolation prize. I would love to hear your comments on this one.

sometimes life is fun when it gives you those little rewards. =)

feel good about it, it is called Karma

Life takes cares of hurtful past on its own. No it's not arrogance to feel this way.

I would handle it in a classy way while smiling and snickering ..but I wouldn't say anything rude or anything.

The whole experience is a treat

No I don't think its arrogant at all...people get whats coming to them. All I can say is just remember how you felt when you didn't fit in. Don't ever treat someone like they treated you, you know exactly how it feels!!

I have went through this myself actually. I have left my home town and only go back once in a great while. I lost a bunch of weight so no one realizes who I am. My senior year there was this guy that would never even speak to me because I was not considered the "in" crowd. He kept following me around one night at a bar and finally I said hey ellege don't you know who I am? He said NOPE. When I told him, his face just fell...and I had to laugh and say guess what...I am not a virgin anymore!! Yep I love it when you surprise people that wouldn't talk to you for different reasons....sooner or later, they realize that it was stupid to treat you different because you can change when you grow up!!

just a differant view, i was a cool dude but poor. where i grew up that a death wish. every one avoided me. now 30 some years later. i make good money, and they still avoid me, but thats ok because i can do what i want to do, i dont need food stamps any more, and some of the gals do need it, because ex husbands dont pay,
my ex loves me because i did pay
