I’m going into my last year of college and I kinda felt like I did college wrong. Like, my grades are good but everything else about college I failed at. Like socially and stuff, after 4 years I barely know anybody. I commuted(to avoid debt, and did so successfully) so maybe that’s part of my problem.

But I feel college was supposed to be special time in your life and to me it has been indifferent. :/Thoughts?

    It depends what you mean by “get over it”. You’ll possibly never feel good about it. But that doesn’t mean that a bad time has to keep causing you to have more bad times.

    I look it this way. Bad times may be living rent free in my head and I may not have any luck evicting them. That means I’ll run in to them from time to time in my mental hallways. What it doesn’t mean though is that I have to drop in and visit them everyday on top of that

      This is really great advice. Like everyone, I have gone through rough times before, I just need to chalk up this time as just another experience and memory and leave it as that. I dunno, I just feeling really down about it for some reason today. I’m going just try to build better memories going forward.
