Dear Queenie,
My college reunion is coming up later this year. I was pretty wild in college, drinking and playing around a lot. Since then I have settled down and am raising a family and living a decent life. My wife knows all about how I was in college because she went to the same school.
We would like to go to the reunion and catch up with old friends, but there will be other people there that I would be embarrassed to see again.
Queenie, should we go or not?—Alumnus
Dear Alumnus,
By all means go and enjoy yourselves, and do not worry so much about your “wild” past. It is quite likely that the people you would be embarrassed to see again also will have settled down to changed lives.
