The first 2 years I had bad depression.. And now it's more in control and im just melancholic about life at times, mixed with a type of unsettledness about the madness of this world and life (none of it makes sense; what's our purpose?) I think deeply about life & I find it hard to relate to a lot of my peers who are so into gossiping and dating, what's the latest trend, getting drunk, having sex, and popping some pills just to be cool and have the "college experience;" the clubs and activities at our school don't interest me and I find them elementary-like. Like, I feel like an adult surrounded by younger children.
The only thing I have going for me is guys tend to take a liking to my appearance. But then I feel like they think I'm boring because I enjoy drinking wine and reading by myself on a Friday night, and talking about & doing things that don't pertain to our immediate gratification.
I met this guy who I thought was a loner like me.. Only to find he too had a group of friends. He asked me who my group of friends were here.. And well, I'm a one man show.. I felt pathetic or boring or both.
Is this normal? What should I do?
