It so happened at the end of January a mini high school reunion was taking place and I was invited. Unwittingly I accepted and told him I'd be there since my work would put me close by anyways. The problem is when I took a look at who was going I realized mostly every single person attending is either married, engaged, or has children. This put me off since I've always been a loner and like being single. To be honest I believe I'm close to being the only one who isn't in a relationship from my graduating class. Now that I know this I don't want to attend because I know I will not be able to relate to most of those attending. Should I just not go and not say anything? Or should I just make an excuse as to why I can't attend? Take note that I was never that eager to reconnect with anybody in the first place but thought it would be a little fun.

Do you come from a small town? I live in a city so there are still lots of 20 something's single and childless. If you go, the ones with babies will probably be jealous of you getting a good nights sleep!

 Couldn't you just go and realise that you don't NEED to be in a relationship? Their lives may seem "better" than yours on the outside, but you're all really young, so it's not like their lives have all fallen into place.
If you can, I'd say give it a go; you can always leave whenever you want....
