My freshman year at college, all I did was hang out at my boyfriend's school, with his friends, every weekend. We broke up my sophomore year and I started hanging out with friends of my own. The problem is, they were all friends from freshman year. They all lived on the same floor and they're always talking about how freshman year was the best year ever and I'm the only one in the group who wasn't there.
I understand that there's nothing I can really do about this problem. I like hearing their stories from their first year, but it always comes with this overwhelming sense of regret that I missed it. The last time I was in a group from the beginning was middle school and I'm graduating from college soon.
I guess the college experience isn't going to be that fun for me. I've had a great time with my friends since I met them, but it seems always overshadowed by their freshman year and how much better it was. I just hope that I can find a group like theirs when I start work/graduate school and not feel incredibly left out.
