Is this a good reason to transfer?

<p>During my time at this college I've been completely miserable. I ended up sleeping with other people's significant others and got them to hate me. Addition to other embarrassing situations I've made such a bad name for myself at this school. I don't want to leave because I love the area that this school is in. But I feel like I've developed such a bad reputation that I can't really enjoy myself here. Is this a good reason to transfer?</p>

<p>You put yourself in the situation, are you going to do the same thing at the new school?</p>

<p>Only you can answer that question because you know if you are willing to continue in your situation or not. I can offer some insight because I had a teammate who went through this exact situation. I was a Junior(now a senior) and my teammate was a freshman. She came in and made a bad reputation for herself. She was getting drunk all the time, sleeping with other people’s boyfriends, making bad grades and just really pissing people off. She eventually got kicked off the team and lost her scholarship. Instead of changing and making amends she continued her destructive behavior. People started harassing her and posting stuff on the internet and she got so upset that she told a professor she was going to kill herself(while drunk and half naked in a school common area). She was taken to get a psychiatric evaluation. The crazy thing is that she was perfectly happy, funny and nice when she came to school on the first day, but ended up making all these bad choices that really hurt her. She decided to transfer and is doing better now. If I were in your situation I would transfer and start new. When you transfer be sure to make good and moral choices, don’t put yourself in that situation again. Good luck!</p>
