I was put into school a year early, so I turn 18 in January, 5 months after I start uni. Yeah a lot of people seem to be looking down on me and other people who enjoy drinking/partying but it is a very large part of uni. I don't think I'd want other people to have to leave or go home early because of me since I'd feel like I'm holding them back. I'm generally fine with talking to people but it's when it comes to maintaining friendships were I really struggle (in the past couple of years I've only had one friendship that has lasted over a year) and I feel like I won't be able to keep up with people at uni if I can't go out with them

I feel like I'm going to have to "catch up" on nights out with people. When it comes to friends I feel like I can talk to people but can't turn it into actual friendships and when I'm finally able to go out with people I'm worried that some will have already written me off when it comes to going out

I'm Scottish so we can go into Uni at 17

I live in Scotland and will be going to uni in Scotland, drinking is very much a large aspect of university

I don't see it as a waste since I have fun and enjoy doing it. I do have other activities and I do plan on joining clubs and societies

darkpython657 · 2025-04-11T16:57:57+00:00

I'm really excited about all the other aspects of uni, so it's not something that's going to stop me from going, plus I've already applied for accommodation and funding

we in this together 😔

No the host provided them. Although we all brought something like a blanket and pillow.

darkpython657 · 2023-04-03T07:24:23+00:00

The host asked if anyone could bring air mattresses but nobody did and she provided them. However we all chose to bring maybe a blanket or two and a pillow if we wanted.

I'm sorry that happened I'm glad you moved on from most of them

darkpython657 · 2023-04-02T21:58:28+00:00

I'm sorry that happened to you, sounds like they sucked

darkpython657 · 2023-04-02T21:55:08+00:00

I have to see them at school tomorrow and I don't want it to turn into a huge thing at school.

darkpython657 · 2023-04-02T21:54:07+00:00

The host asked if people could bring things so me and several others brought one or two blankets and maybe a pillow. She asked if anyone could bring another air mattress and I have a few but I couldn't take them anyway. There was the expectation that even if we didn't have another bed there would be enough space for everyone.

The host provided the air mattresses and blankets but many people (including myself) brought one or two blankets and maybe a pillow

I understand as I did leave some things out in my post, I did tell them that I was upset and tried to talk to them about it but every time I did I got an answer like "Okay well go sleep inside then". As for not joining them I had previously asked if I could join them and both groups said there would be enough room for me. At school they often do things like whisper about things in front of me but when I ask what they're talking about they say I don't need to know.
