    Ok so i was out last night everything was fine until we got to the club,i was sitting next to my boyfriend and friends when i noticed two girls staring over at me and the boyfriend after a while i reliased one of them was in my year in school anyway she kept talking to her friend obviously saying something about me i didnt know where to look, i tried to ignore them but i couldnt so i had to move out of their view was sick of it.The weird thing is i havnt seen the one from school for years probably around six and in school i was really quiet and didnt have much friends. It totally ruined my night i dont understand why people have to be so obvious? I'd never do that to anyone. Anyway what would you have done?

    I might have waved or said hello.

    Seriously I'm not sure what you feel it is these people have done to you ?! She was probably just saying - oh there's so and so from school, haven't seen her in years. Oh look she got a boyfriend good for her she was so shy back then.

    I probably would have waved and smiled too, just to let her know I'd seen her behave like that and I had better manners than her (might have been tempted to blow her a kiss but wouldn't have had the guts!).

    That said, I think you should ignore it. The previous poster is right, she could have been saying anything from 'Is that really her? I'm not sure. . . ' to 'Is that the dress I nearly bought?' And yeah, she also could have been being nasty but if you haven't seen her in six years, let her say what she wants. You have friends and a boyfriend and she isn't relevant to your life. I'd try and forget about it OP, it's not worth your time.

    She hasn't seen you in years.
    Maybe she was trying to remember your name, she knew your face but couldn't quite place your name.

    Give a wave and smile.
    I realy, realy doubt they were saying nasty things about you

    Or maybe if you were so shy in the past, look at you now with a boyfriend and surrounded by friends.

    If it was nasty things, well she in not in your life so don't concern yourself with her

    Who knows what she was saying.

    I personally think (like other posters) she was either saying
    1. oh there is so and so, v quiet in school, look at her with her boyfriend fair play
    or
    2. Who is that girl, she looks really familiar, maybe I was in school or college with her, maybe work, I cannot place her.

    As you said yourself you were quiet in school so what else could she be saying????

    You moved away which was a good idea. I probably would have done that if I felt uncomfortable the way you did.

    It is over now don't even think about it again.

    Why do you automatically assume she was saying something bad? She may have been "staring" (looking!) at you to try catch your eye to see if you'd recognise her/wave at her/acknowledge her?

    She may not have been saying anything nasty at all... but NOW she might be saying, "ignorant so and so turned her back on me and didn't even let on she knew me"!

    You have your version of what happened, she'll have hers.. and none of it matters now anyway!
