You know how in high school films, there are different kinds of students? Like there are popular kids, athletes, nerds and quiet kids. Well, I am sure there are many more and in every school there are different ones, but popular and lonely kids can be found everywhere. At least in every film. And you know, the mysterious thing about these ‘lonely’ kids is that it’s always interesting to see how their lives will turn out - will they change, or will they always stay the same, just adults?

So on that note, recently one Reddit user created a thread with the question “What happened to the lonely guy in your high school class?” And folks online were sharing quite a lot of stories about how these kids’ lives turned out - and be prepared, because some of them are really terrifying, but there are also many heartwarming stories.

    I would give them the benefit of a doubt. Some bullies grow up to sincerely regret their past. Some remain d!ckheads obviously, but still.

    Somebody Asks “What Happened To The Lonely Guy In Your High School Class?” And 27 Folks Answer The person I always thought of as possibly lonely retained the same couple of friends for the past 13 years and they still seem to enjoy getting together and doing the things they did back then. Video games, anime, etc.

    One of the most happy-go-lucky, friendly, and popular guys I knew took his own life a couple of years back.

    It always seems to be the one who look the happiest. A local guy who everyone knew and loved because of his happy smile and big-hearted, friendly ways took his own life about a year ago and everyone bar one or two close confidants was completely shocked.

    Somebody Asks “What Happened To The Lonely Guy In Your High School Class?” And 27 Folks Answer That was me. I always sat at my own table with the occasional foreign exchange student. I got out of school and worked really hard. I just turned 48 and I still haven't peaked. I have a large portfolio of real estate and do a lot of traveling. I wanted something more for myself but I didn't really have that confidence until after school. I now live an incredible life. There is hope for us losers who aren't afraid of a little work.

    There's something to be said about people who call other people losers. It shows a adolescent, meanspirited frame of mind and I condemn it whole heartedly.

    I wish I had your sense of self. I sit and wallow, like a lot of others do too, in my early life. I wallow in the missed opportunities I thought I made peace with, but find in hindsight it's not really the case. I wallow in the negative but not before rubbing honey all over myself before nuzzling and commiserating with. Be amazing to f my early life.

    Somebody Asks “What Happened To The Lonely Guy In Your High School Class?” And 27 Folks Answer He joined a cult and completely cut ties with his family. There was an article written about said cult recently and his name pops up quite a bit, so he must have some kind of position of authority in it.

    Somebody Asks “What Happened To The Lonely Guy In Your High School Class?” And 27 Folks Answer Hard to really say who was really lonely or not. Plenty of lonely people that forced themselves in the crowd.

    Anyways there was a kid his sister was one of the prettiest most popular at school. She was a senior and he was a freshman. He got the principal to let him put on a concert for lunch period for his band. One of the teachers watching lunch shut him down because he was doing “screamo music” about pop tarts. A month later he shot himself in the head.

    Everyone plays it off that he was lonely etc. I never believed that and I thought his concert took a lot of self courage. He was hanging out with his friends. It was the bullying because he wanted to be himself and not fit in the norm. His sister stopped going to school and idk what happened to her. It’s sad how cruel we as kids are.

    There was a boy that was in my class at primary school aged 8. He was very quiet, had no close friends, hardly spoke, and smelled really bad-not his fault at that age obviously, but he just smelled of musty mildew and urine like he hadn't washed. He was bullied relentlessly-those who didn't participate in the active bullying stood by and did nothing. One day, our teacher sent him off to give another teacher a message, and she told off the entire class, telling us how ashamed of us she was for bullying him. After that, he was just ignored. We ended up at the same high school, and he was ignored through that too. He left at age 16 with no qualifications. I was back in my home town 30 years later and I saw him-he looked about 70 (we were in our 40s), still really scruffy, greasy hair, grubby looking. I've no idea what he did after school, or what his life was like. I always felt guilty for ignoring him in school, he must have had a rotten childhood.

    Somebody Asks “What Happened To The Lonely Guy In Your High School Class?” And 27 Folks Answer Learnt that he [took his own life] 2 years ago. Apparently because he was accused of bad stuff and didn't want to go to jail. I was also pretty lonely most of my scholarship, but in high school I had the luck of finding a small group of friend that adopted me.

People objectively worse than me seem to be winning, douche bags, abusers, etc. They all have friends, girlfriends, social circle, and I'm a decent human being with hobbies that exist outside and off the internet, I'm well read, and I like latin dancing. I can't make it work. I give up.
