Going off to college, been ignored by friends
I'll be going off to college in a few days & I'm really bummed by the fact that none of my "close" friends seem to care. Sure, when I talk to them they say they'll miss me, but will they really? Heck, I'd imagine they'd at least be like, "Hey, dude. Wanna hang out/do something?", but that's not the case. It really sucks knowing that someone you care about won't take the time to drive for 10 minutes just to say hi... So, yeah, have any of you gone through this? What did you do about it? I'm really considering just giving up. Why should I try being a good friend if I just end up feeling ignored and unappreciated?

thanks for the advice, guys!
You're going to have to be the one to say "Hey, let's hang out before we head our separate ways" if you think that way.
Someone's gotta take the initiative.
When I went to college, I missed my friends so bad, especially the ones that went though middle school and high school with me. I made new ones but I still missed my friends so whenever I head back and it's a 3 day weekend (mama needs her rest) I hang out with them.

Wise words
I had soooooo many friends in High School.... out of all of them Im still friends with only 2 which are my best friends
don't worry about it college makes you mature so fast
Well aren't they going off to college too? They have their own crap to deal with.
Friends and close relationships will change, some of them you'll be able to rekindle. Others..
well some relationships will drift apart simply by the change in circumstances you're going
through. Some of those relationships (i.e. friendships) you'll just have to let go, but don't
let that stop you from building new ones later on. :v

I was gonna say. Think about it, if they make negative effort to hang with you, they probably never liked you.
Nows a good time to head off and make new friends. Good luck.
Don't even let it get to you. Hell, it's their loss in the future if they ever need a favor.
You'll meet tons of new and probably better people at college anyways.
[quote=reconforce946]Lol I got no friends at all, mostly because I moved from one school to another from time to time.
OT: Give them a cold shoulder and see what happens.[/quote]
They really sucks, dude. I couldn't imagine having to do that. & yeah, if I were to do that, I'd be the jerk in their eyes.. I wouldn't want that.
we'll miss you

Make new friends. You honestly didn't think the friends you have would stay with you forever would you? Perhaps if they are your best friend maybe they would hang out/call.
