I'm going into my last year of college and I kinda felt like I did college wrong. Like, my grades are good but everything else about college I failed at. Like socially and stuff, after 4 years I barely know anybody. I commuted(to avoid debt, and did so successfully) so maybe that's part of my problem.

But I feel college was supposed to be special time in your life and to me it has been indifferent. :/Thoughts?

You also went to college presumably during COVID. So I’m sure that didn’t help.

Yes, my first year was fully remote, second was remote then in person with covid precautions and my third and last back to normal. But I dunno think that's the whole of it. Like I see ppl on campus and they seem like covid had little impact on them. I think something is wrong with me, but I have been looking into social disconnection and loneliness lately, and I seems like, I'm not to dissimilar from many in Gen z.
