You want the truth?

It's because NO ONE CARES.

It's not that they don't like you and your kid, but unless it's Harvard, which merits two exclamation points instead of one in the congratulations, NO ONE CARES.

I would never expect anyone to show the slightest interest in where my kids go to college. This is one of those subjects that are of interest to the parents and kid, but not to anyone else. When other people mention college acceptances, I smile, say the obligatory words of happiness, and change the subject. What on earth do you expect me to do?

This is not normal...but you never use the word "friend" here. Do you consider people who have your cell, who know you well enough to text you, to be just people or are they your friends? Because friends celebrate successes out of sincere happiness, not obligation. I don't know if it's too late to work on social skills, but I hope you can look at the other posts here and see that what you've written is not normal. [/quote]
