Personally, I find that reassuring -- that life eventually catches up even to the people who were popular for being good-looking in high school. I've skipped all my reunions for fear of having to show up as a cow, but by this point (out of HS 26 years), pretty much everybody has gained a bunch of weight, the guys have gone or are going bald, etc. It makes it easier to stop beating up on myself for same.
