In my experience of attending reunions, no one actually wanted to hear anyone's life story. The Hollywood movie concept of the 'golden boy' or 'golden girl' standing with a rapt audience at the high school reunion, bragging about how successful life is for him/her is just that...a scene from someone's imagination. In reality, who wants to hear about the car you drive or the house you own? No one. People come to reunions to have a fun evening, not to compare and contrast.
