Starting a new life...

[Romantic_Flower]

How is everyone?
Tomorrow i'll be graduating from high school, and now its my chance to start a new life. high school destroyed my life emotionally. My classmates always ignored me. They were always trying to hurt my emotions, by saying bad things to people about me, going out without inviting me and other things. All these things turned me into a very lonely person, with no self steem and friends.
Now it's my chance to start a new life, away from them. I'll be in college next year, i'll study nursing.
I feel like i'm free now. Free from that nightmare called School. I can be who i really away way from those bastards. I can finally be me, do what I like, stay with who i like.
Now i ask you guys. Do you have any tips on how starting a new life? How to start a new life having no friends or social status. I'm just a normal guy. No one knows the real me. Where should i go to meet new people, have fun and try something different?
This is my last chance and i can't waste it. The nightmare is finally over, and now i want to live my real life. I want to live. LIVE.
"I wanna live, i wanna love, but it's a long hard road out of hell"... I'm out of hell now. So now, i can live and love

I've met a lot of people getting certified to scuba dive and rock climbing. People always need partners to rock climb.

No clue, just do what you want?

Don't think of it as your last chance, think of it as another chance. My suggestion would be prevention first. You seem to be depending very heavily on this chance, I want to prepare you for failure before success. leanr how to enjoy being alone. Build yourself up mentally, spiritually, physically. Make time to be alone that is enjoyable. Hit the gym, go to church, nap, the library. This is the time to build your self esteem. I say this because whenever we lean to much on others company they ALWAYS let us down eventually, which can cause bitterness. Also the pressure sometimes scares them off or drama arises. So balance your time between them and yourself. Also Plant your peas in different fields. Meaning have a variety of friends in different places. So if you fall out with one you have another somewhere else. Remember to choose your friends wisely. If they talk about others they'll talk about you. You always have a friend in God and he doesn't desert you Good Luck! College is a blast by the way, Remember to enjoy it. Live my friend Live.

I spent the last 3 years all alone, by my own. I know how to enjoy my own company, but now i want to enjoy other people's company too. Being all alone all the time sucks. This loneliness made me very strong. who rises after a fall progresses much more than someone who has never experienced a fall. But still my self steem is very low, maybe because i have no friends. But i'm strong emotionally.

Congrats on the graduation!!

I'm not too sure if I can say much, going through college myself. but I think a very good way to meet new people at school is to attend clubs and stuff. There's clubs for lots of things usually. Some academic made specifically for peoples in certain fields (like there might be a student association for nursing at your college), and then there are some clubs which are just for interest

I remember when i went to meetings like those to meet new people, i found it hard to start up conversations. But once you break the ice with someone, it gets much easier, because they're there to meet new people too. So a lot of people are in the same boat

And don't feel discouraged if things don't work out when you try to talk to someone. Sometimes people just don't want to talk, it's usually nothing personal.Just keep trying and you'll eventually meet someone who wants to talk to you too

Hope I could help, and Have fun at your first year in college

its my chance to start a new life.

College is a great time for this. However let me say that you may change your surroundings, but you always drag pieces of yourself along with you. Best to be vigilant against the ghost's of your unhappiness, as they can scar you just as much as the living. Reinvent yourself before searching for fulfillment in others.

When I finished school I cried. I just remembered all the horrible things, but also that I will never again be forced to socialise with people because I'm in college now.

Things are A LOT better now!
