Ahh!!! another rant about college? Well! Yes, this one would be unique with certain don’ts and useful lessons from real-life experience; it might be a solution for some of you.
I used to live in a healthy environment before I started college, interacting minimally with few people. But ever since I started college, things have changed and have had an impact on me, both positively and negatively.

Problem 1: Self-Centered Individuals

Ever Since I’ve been here, I’ve noticed how selfish everyone is. They are so egotistical that they refuse to help you even if you phone them twice in one day. They’d believe you’re “interested” in them 🤷‍♂️.

Problem 2: Attention Seeker to the core

People at this place are desperate to get the attention of someone they like or wanted to date but not had the courage to speak up OR just wanted to act cool around the person they liked. And if they don’t provide them the right care. Because they didn’t receive a lot of attention as children, they repeatedly try to do strange things to attract it.

Problem 3: Falsifying everything

They make such phoney emotions and words. Even if one member of a group has animosity toward another, they would never join that group. Instead, they would always pretend and make an effort to portray their group as a “family”.
With bogus copy-pasted messages and emojis, they always act as though they are the ones who are most joyful, even though they would never truly be glad for someone else when they succeed.

Now, the issues I stated are simply prevalent among most college students (but not all, dahh!)

And, in most situations, this occurred when you weren’t taught the fundamental social graces necessary to converse with persons of the other gender or with humans in general. Their entire world revolves solely around them, which breeds animosity if others don’t reciprocate. They can’t even be basic buddies since they enjoy complicating situations in order to get more attention.

Now, comes to the BOYS (not all) specifics: Oh, my God! These boys only act like dogs (but without being loyal to one).

They would practically follow every girl, go along with her plans without considering their own objectives or work, all in an effort to catch her eye and develop a strong relationship without receiving any direction from her 🤷‍♂️. They would also do this to any lady they could since their degree of desperation is so great and they have never had a relative who could show them how to function in society.

PLEASE GROW UP! if anyone from my college is reading this.

Points to remember in General:

  • Instead of paying attention to YOU, people have other things to do!
  • There are many people in the world than just YOU!
  • Be serene and modest. Nothing can be flaunted or boasted about using your parents’ money
  • Nothing resembles a “family” as much as college groupings. Less loosely packed bonds are smaller bonds

There was no aim to hurt anyone; these are just my personal opinions. I apologise if this hurts.
