[quote=Anonymous]College was definitely not the best 4 years of my life. I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either. I didn't fit in that well and lacked confidence. I did really well in school, but I never felt comfortable socially - I hardly dated and only had a few friends. Also a SLAC. Like your DD, I would look at pictures of my HS friends partying at other schools and feel like I was missing out - I even considered transferring after my first year, although I didn't go through with it. I'm not really sure why, but I was much happier at law school - it "clicked" with me a lot better. I had a great group of friends and we hung out all the time. I also met my husband there. Those three years were probably the best for me - I think they were what college is for a lot of other people. I think it was a combination of fitting in better and the confidence that comes with being a little older - I was kind of a late bloomer socially.[/quote]
