[quote=Anonymous]I hate to say it this way, but law school is not about making friends or finding yourself. It is about learning and getting done. Plus, now in my late 40s, I can tell you that substantive friendships are much harder to come by after college. It's partly access and partly because everyone's lives, including law students', go in many different directions. Don't throw out law school, because your problem isn't law school, it's the expectation you'll have a social life and make friends in law school. You have less than 2 years left. Suck it up. Also, I went to law school after working for 4 years, like you. I was ahead in my life and my focus was different than the other students. It's just a fact that I couldn't treat law school as an extension of college. I was there to make a career pivot, plain and simple. I have a few friends from law school, but they are really acquaintances compared to my college and high school friends.[/quote]
