I Would Go Back In Time If I Could

In college don't like it. Miss living with my parents and three brothers who I always took for granted and are my best friends. Literally everyone from my small town I knew as friends for over 10 years of my life and now the only times I will ever see them again is Christmas and Summer, doesn't even include the friends who have left my state and are not coming back ever.

I don't wanna grow up there is nothing to look forward to except for work, marriage, and eventually death. I miss the long car drives around my city talking about life, our future, and possibilities with friends. I miss the simpler times where we would just watch TV for hours while it was snowing outside. I just can't get over the fact that things will never again be the same.

I don't want to make new friends and once everyone starts working, moving away, and getting married I know things will never go back to the way they were :(

Thanks for listening.

That is tough. I can understand how you feel. I hope you do make it a point to stay in touch with people and not just on Facebook. Is there a reason you had to go away? What about going back and finding a life in your hometown without college? Any decent jobs there? An apprentice to someone in your town who makes a decent living? (Like a plumber or real estate person?) Or maybe start or buy a business? Is there a way you can go back and get some of your earlier life back?
