A message to all socially inept posters

Student Lounge College Life

<p>There are so many of these questions on this board:</p>

<p>*“Will X change once I get to college? “
“Will Y stop bothering me? “
“Will my social life be better?” *</p>

<p>The short answer is this: nothing will change unless you make an effort. If you don’t talk to anyone in high school, don’t magically expect everyone to talk to you in college. The world isn’t going to adjust itself to make you comfortable. To quote Gandhi:</p>

<p>“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”</p>

<p>The best advice anyone can give you is this: be confident. How do you gain confidence? Work out, dress better, have good hygiene, and most importantly, be assertive. It really is that simple.</p>

<p>But you’re forgetting the most important thing:</p>

<p>WILL I GET A GIRLFRIEND WHEN I GO TO COLLEGE?!?! PLZ I AM 400 POUNDS AND EVERYONE THINKS I’M A CREEPER!!11!</p>

<p>All sarcasm aside, I very much agree with this post and think it should be sent to every new user and incoming freshman.</p>
