How to get over not having a good college experience? - eviltoast

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?

    I can relate but lack of socializing in college didn’t bother me (I’m an introvert). Didn’t make any friends during undergrad and made some friends during my grad program that I still talk to but most of my friends are from high school.

    Everyone’s college experience is different and just because it didn’t check certain boxes (unless they’re important to YOU), that doesn’t mean you failed. I think it’s put out there to be this special time in your life but “special” is subjective.
