26 Honest Captions You'd Love To Use For Your HS Reunion Pics, But Won't

by Marisa Casciano

Aside from pumpkin patches and all of that "hocus pocus," it's high school reunion season! Yes, seeing your old friends and classmates can be quite spooky, and you've been mentally preparing yourself for months. There are a lot of mixed emotions in the air about seeing everyone for the first time in legit years, and this event won't be as casual as a football game. You'll have to make conversation and pretend not to cringe when people ask you what you're up to now. *Cue the internal screams.* So, I've gathered up a bunch of honest Instagram captions for high school reunion pics that put those feeling into words. Too bad you can't use them, huh?

A few months ago, you and your besties from home received the invitations in the mail. You were asked to save the date for a night of catching up and hanging at a local spot, and instantly started sifting through your closet, looking for something to wear. After all, an event like this means you need to look on point, so you planned a shopping trip and rushed around the mall. The universe was on your side, and you found a dress that'll definitely impress your former crush from English class. (Is this the night you finally fall in love?) With a cute pair of shoes and eyeliner that is perfectly winged like the rest of your life, you'll be good to go.

When you first walk in, you'll be nervous and a bit excited. Throw on a smile, dodge as many life questions as possible, and then post a picture to social media with your crew from your reunion. Full disclosure: An honest caption might ruffles some feathers. Proceed with caution, if you choose to use one. Sarcasm and high school never mixed.
