I never told my parents what my life was like in college.

I ask DC if they have friends they hang out with.[/quote]

+1 I had a really hard time making friends first year of college. Didn't really find my groove until well into 2nd year. I didn't talk to my parents about it.[/quote]

30+ years ago I had the freshman roommate from hell (think talking on phone at 2am loudly, come into room at midnight, turn on music and all the lights despite me attempting to sleep for my 8am-12pm set of 4 classes, basically rude, inconsiderate and not willing to adjust// the best part (sarcasm) was them setting their alarm for 3am to "study for an exam at 11am" and hitting snooze forever---It was still snoozing every 10 mins when I left at 7:30am).  Same roommate's older brother was best friends with our RA (so basically he was useless and I didn't trust anything I told him to not be repeated back to my roommate).  My parents had no clue.  They didn't know that I spent 3-4 days at a time (I did it 3 different times) during fall quarter living on the floor of a senior friend who had a single (our major was small and the upperclassmen were very supportive) because I needed a break from the craziness and had to learn how to navigate and deal with someone like my roommate.
