Read that over and really think about it. I think there’s a message there for you.
I don’t mean to bring up an old post, but I think you’re saying that “everything isn’t going to go my way” no matter what happens in certain situations. Also, people have different thoughts and opinions about these situations as well.
Unfortunately, he’s no longer in college. His future looks more like this:
(Trade/tech school and working part time until a decision is made)
I don’t mean to bring this up, again, but he struggled living everyday life. He didn’t care about any of his classes and skipped them quite often. He wasn’t depressed or anything, but I do believe that he lost some care along the way. He just did his own thing, which made him become more social with some of the people on our floor. The NBA playoffs and NFL draft made this happen.
Overall, I never meant to give him any social expectations. I just wanted to be there for him if he ever needed help along the way. I never forced him into anything, I only gave him advice. I wish the best of luck to him and his future.
You tried as best as you could to get him more socialized in the dorm. Sounds like he had bigger maturity problems as it related to the academic side.
It’s even more interesting when a current friend of mine, who’s currently a junior, wanted to get his new roommate, who’s a freshman, to join a fraternity. Now, he’s currently apart of it. Sounds like the junior, in this situation, “pushed” him into joining during his first semester of his freshman year…
@sta3535. I just read this for the first time. I don’t understand the negative comments. You are a good person. Stay that way. This quality will serve you well in life. Good luck to you.
