20 + years go in college, were the happiest times I ever was. Right now, my life is depressing. I lost in touch with my friends from college. Most of them are married and have kids. And friends I do have now are so far way or busy with there own lives. In college, I had lived in the dorm in new town. made lots friends, was popular,did lot of things to gether. Experienced lot of new things,gone to places that I never knew it existed. I miss those years so bad. I constanly thining about the past my colege years & how happy I was. To distract myself, I do lot of volunteer work, work on my hobbies and crafts. I do talk to my currents friends on the phone or e-mail.Is it normal to have all these feelings? How else can I stop thinking and feelings about the past and move on to reality. Any advice?

Is It Normal?

    Is there no way you could get involved in your local college? Perhaps an evening course or some type of voluntary work for them? That would get you back into the more relaxed social life - although you may find the kids a bit too immature to stick!

    It sounds as though you need to be involved with a large group of people, so what about a local sports team.

    I think it's nice that you like people - usually they just bore me.

    Wow I guess I should really enjoy my life right now but sometimes I can't help but want to skip to when I'm married with a family and have a career.

    And then you get married thinking that what's missing in your life is a soul mate. But after a few years you realize that wasn't it. So then you decide to have kids because maybe your purpose in life is to start a family. But after three times, you realize thats a let down as well. Face it kid, from this point on, it's all down hill.

    It sounds like you'd have been better off using that time to learn English.
