I just moved into college Friday. Right now, it sucks so bad. I'm depressed and don't want to be here at all. I hate it. I miss my girlfriend and just want to cry and run away from everything. This is nothing like I wanted it to be. I fucking hate this! I want to drop out already. If I drop out I have no other options though. I was thinking the Air Force..I want to be a pilot. Right now I'm signed up for Engineering, but I just don't think this whole college thing is for me. Words can't explain how I feel about this..it's too much for me. Way too much. I can't quit though it's all unreal. I already payed for this. I just want to be with my girlfriend. She said she'll transfer here next semester because it's way to hard on both of us. But I don't know if I can make it that far.. I want to just go to sleep and never wake up. I hate feeling like this. I just don't know anymore what to do.

Seriously, just stick it out the first semester. You can't jump to those conclusions after 3 days.

You can't fly without a degree. On top of which, if you can't handle a few days at college you dont have a chance in any branch of the military.

it be stupid to drop out from college after you payed a shitful load of money. Besides if you think college is hard think of what the military would be like. Now I know I am not in the military but my cousins are and I know from their experience

Starting college is never easy. During my first week, I felt lost and really upset like you do right now. I promise it does get better though! You just need to meet more people and get more involved in the activities on offer. Try getting to know your course mates more and arranging something with them. There are plenty of people out there and you just need to get out there more, because isolating yourself never works - trust me. Have you considered counselling? I think it would be a good idea to start, as you clearly need more guidance about your course and what you want to achieve, in addition to the homesickness you feel which is normal for everyone.

I can relate to your situation about your girlfriend, as I've been away from mine for so long now and the hard part is knowing that I won't be able to see her before I go away again :'(. It's great that your girlfriend is transferring to your college in the second semester - I mean, for all you know she might not even want to go to that college, but she's doing this for you. Remember that when you feel low and such, because most relationships fail as a result of the partner moving away and going to college. She must care a great deal about you to keep strong like this.

I would really advise you not to quit right now, and instead you should talk to your tutor about how you feel. During the first week I wanted to quit, all because I felt like a failure and knew the others were smarter. Well, I know that was childish now, as in the end I managed doing better than them in some things. You just have to keep reminding yourself what gave you the ambition to start the course - what you want to do in the future.

Good luck.
PM me anytime.

Don't drop out of college because of a girl. Stupid... stupid... stupid. And stay away from the military if you believe in the constitution,  College can be the pits and its overrated, but a degree and general education can be well-worth it. The cool thing about college is that grades really are not that important unless you are shooting for grad school, so don't feel pressured. Challenge yourself, but don't push yourself too hard. Go party, smoke some sheeba, enjoy yourself.
