Moose, let an "old man" interject here for a moment. First off relax, this will all pass in time. You at a huge adjustment point in your life. You have just entered college. A lot has changed, you have to share your space with a stranger, you are on your own, you have to take care of yourself ect... It is not going to be easy, and you may not find yourself right away. Hell you might not even find yourself until after college. I know I am still struggling with it. Also you are right, anger is the easiest emotion. That being said, it is okay to be angry... That is healthy and it serves a purpose. Just dont become consumed by it. I say that, because thats what has happened to me. Ever since my girlfriend left I am totally different and its been over a year now. I snap at people, have road rage, dont care about anyone or anything, heck I even almost got into a fist fight in public with a perfect stranger. So watch out for that. Also, the worst thing you could do right now is get involved with a girl. If you use a relationship as a crutch, it will be doomed to fail from the start. How can you be half of something when you are not whole yourself? The main thing is to keep your eye on what you want. Career is a good start. It seems to me, the most sucessful people never cared about "getting a girl friend" or "being accepted". All they did was focus on the goal they had. Now some of them are very rich. Both in life and in money. I know you probably wont listen to most of this, I know I certainly didnt when people told it to me, but I guess thats why hindsight is always 20/20. If you need to talk IM me man. I am sitting at home waiting for this fucking car to be fixed so that I can finally move and its gunna be a few more weeks, so I certainly have the time. My AIM name is AGILLUSTRATOR. Keep your head up dude.
