If you're a cyborg/robot like me, it'll be the most miserable time of your life. My first semester was a living hell being forced to live with normies. And having no privacy made me want to cut myself and start smoking (all if you live on campus). Maybe I'll change, but I doubt it.

if you're a normie you missed out on binge drinking & shallow hook-up culture.
if you're a robot you missed out on a shit ton of stress, debt and loneliness.

Im in my second semester of college and its far from the best time of my life. Unless youre a normie who has the social skills to make friends and go to parties you did yourself a favor by not going.

this is how it was for my first three years until i finally made a bunch of friends in my senior year. only then did i actually get the real college experience. it was like night and day.

I'm in my 8th semester. I've never been to a party. Both my friends have graduated already. I haven't hung out with anyone since semester 6. You're not missing out

>finally made a bunch of friends in my senior year
how'd it happen? i'm in that loneliness phase right now

College grad here.

It's better than high school and it's better than life that follows. It's basically the peak of your life.

And I wasn't even a chad or anything. Classes were easy and people were nicer and more outgoing. It was a fun time. Then it ends, and you get a job, and your real life begins.

If you're a robot you missed out on nothing, college is like the 9th circle of hell for people like us. You are surrounded by sex and partying every day and you get NONE of it. Like a starving dog with a giant piece of steak in front of him but can't touch. And then there is the course work which is difficult if you're studying a real subject.

went to college for one semester and I fucking hated it I had zero friends and felt suicidal every day because of that so my advisor told me that withdraws were better than failures on all my transcript. It was probably for the best but I still have 5k of debt and nothing to show for it.

>>34226335
most of my classes were smaller and had alot of the same people in them, so it was easy to get closer to people. it was kind of like high school in that regard.

>>34226356
>It's basically the peak of your life.
i agree with this, especially if you are having a good college experience. i've heard people say that your 30s are the best part of your life but that doesnt seem likely.

I'm going to comunity college and I'm almost burnt out. I'm just starting the second semester now and the work load is already insane, if I take any time off for video games and relaxing I fall behind.

Not to mention my only real friend from semester 1 dropped out so now I have to deal with all the sports obsessed normalfags in my class on top of that.

University is different from what I hear though

>>34226051
This is accurate

how?
I'm in cc, pic was my grades last semester and I barely did shit

>>34226927
2 of my instructors intentionally fail students to get the class numbers down to a desired level. 70% of my class has already dropped.

>>34226555

Really depends on the person but I'm 26 and its looking like my 30's will suck even harder. Life never peaked for me, it has been hell all through middle, high school, and college and now my working life.

>>34227257
Yep. Just how life is.

Went to college. Now I'm going to post-college college. Can confirm it is/was not the best years of my life.

I feel constant disappointment when I'm around them

Absolutely nothing
Don't fucking bother
Waste of time and money

Well, I enjoyed it a lot. Four very enjoyable years. Also four extremely formative years. I have a good job now as a result of my college degree.

A lot of people on this board seem to have hated it though. Just look at the rest of this thread. My conclusion from this is that there is no way of knowing what you've missed out on. It's different for everyone. Keep on living your life.

>>34225931
I'm going to some commuter school. Parties are non-existent although I sometimes hang out with some so-called-friends. I can't really call anyone a good friend because I don't really feel close to anyone.

>tfw still no gf

Absolutely fucking nothing. Unless you had the opportunity to go to some ultra elite prep college than no, you haven't missed a thing.

Have a nice day anon

>>34225931

really depends on the kind of person you are and what you're into.

it was the most miserable, lonely experience of my life. couldn't make friends with anyone. i buried myself in studies as an excuse not to have to interact with people i knew wouldn't like me, still ended up failing or barely scraping by in most of my classes anyway.

don't buy into the hype. a lot of people end up trying way too hard trying to have the quintessential college experience like they've seen in the movies and it all comes across as extremely forced and shallow.

Unless you're from american pie, nothing. Its nothing like the movies anon.

>>34226004
This. i honestly regret dorming on campus; my fucking roommate is a goddamn jock normie who doesn't even like me at all. I also have little to no social life and probably commute next year. OP, you missed nothing at all.>>34225931

I start my next semester of community college tomorrow.

Last semester was utter shit but that's because I bit off more than I could chew and I didn't know my folks couldn't give half a shit whether I full-time or not.

This semester will be great. Also got a Serbian buddy who I smoke hookah with. Feels good.

Any mother who doesn't give birth to croat should get killed by grenade

Went one semester and I have no intentions of going back. I had a hard time making friends and the few friends I did make were addicted to benzos and so I ended up getting into that because it seemed better than being alone. Ended up fucking around and crashing my car because of it. I've been miserable since then and wish I had never went.

>>34225931
usually you have to be able to make friends for the normie college life to be a thing.

>>34229719
You are aware that the intention is in fact to get an education, not to make friends. Those are ancillary benefits, not the reason that you're there. Or did you fall for the degenerate memes about college?

>>34229797
I did fine education wise though. I just hated my experience there.

went to college back in 2011 when i had terrible anxiety, i literally went like 4 days and just ditched it.

Now i'm about to enter next week, my anxiety is gone for the most part and i don't even know what to expect, i had to ask my parent for monetary help so i don't really wanna fuck this up again.

Never just leave college unless you're 100% sure you're not coming back, because when you do wanna come back it's such a fucking hassle.

>>34229797
Who gives a fuck about education. Why do you think so many imbeciles are successful? If you fail to socialise and make connections at college/uni then you're a fucking retardant deserve your misery.

>>34225931
Debt.

I did not care for college, I genuinely thought everybody was miserable until in the later I kept hearing how people look back fondly on their college days and was shocked and confused by this.

Not much.

First year was the worst. Was completely lost, had two shitty roommates.

Transferred to a different school second year, first semester was alright, still didn't make any friends or party but my roommate was nice enough and I could relax in my room.

Now I am in my third year. Finally making connections though no friends really. Classes are ramping up in difficulty but its all interconnected so its actually a little easier.

I'm going for Accounting so I'll probably make 55000 a year after I graduate and finish an intership, once I get my CMA I can literally work anywhere on Earth.

So its a mixed bag but you can make something good out of it

>>34229977
>a fucking retardant
This meant to be a joke, buddy?

I'm sure you don't care much for education.

>Became less awkward after learning to small talk about school with normies
>Repeatedly got drunk with nerd friends playing Street Fighter and Mario Party
>Learned cool shit in class and eventually decided on what career to pursue
>Felt more confident hanging around downtown (after growing up sheltered in the 'burbs)

College was great. It cured enough of my autism to help me enjoy life, even though I stayed virgin for most of it.

Most of campus is normalfag to an extent, but they're not all Chads/Staceys, and you can learn a lot from smart, well-adjusted classmates.

You missed out on boarding high school without the suffocating authority figures that try to run your life. People praise it because it is where they can be an adult, with very minimal responsibility and have the freedom of being free for once without oppressive rules keeping you down.

So it's very meh if you are a shut in. Because everything you do is shit you already did and no one regulated it except during school hours because hur dur card gaymes are gambling and we kant have dat here!!!f

>>34225931

College grad here. I made lots of friends late in college like some of the posters here. What they're not telling you is those people aren't actually your friends and don't give a fuck about you in the way a real friend would. They're funtime friends and it all comes crashing down immediately when college ends.

You missed nothing. It was the most stressful time of my life, and was a pain in the ass.

this, except I didn't make any friends because I was a sperg surrounded by normies
high school was the most fun I'd had in my life. I had a circle of close friends, went out with them and everything was new, exciting and I still enjoyed doing things
throughout college I lost my high school friends, gradually lost interest in everything I used to enjoy and became an ugly recluse
and it's only downhill from here really
