I'm naturally very introverted and I fear I will become a recluse. I don't want this to happen but I'm really shy. I know the best advice is to just get out there and meet people but I'm not like that. I don't want to sit in my room all day reading a writing (for school and not for school) though.

The size of the campus has something to do with the odds of meeting someone that you'll click with. Suffolk University, it's a small private school. I think maybe around 5 thousand. dr woot Posted at 11:23 pm on July 20, 2008 BU?

Can you not go to a school that's closer to your home? I want to go, I'm just afraid I'll end up being lonely... Also, I hate where I live, I mean the south.
