[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 476294, member: 1514"] You know what....I have a feeling. Can I ask if he was a really good student in HS? Big fish in a little pond type deal? Did he happen to end up in a state university that is known for its party atmosphere? Most state university's are party schools. Well maybe I shouldnt label. Like we have UNC but we also have satellite schools like UNC Pembroke which is in my back yard and it is known much more for its partying. And UNC-P is easier to get into than UNC. Back to my original question...if he was really good in HS and suddenly found himself in a big college and not doing as well as he expected himself to do because HS was easy peasy for him, he probably freaked. Bad influences may have been the only friends who "friended" him. That is what happened to me in Jr High. If my suspicions are correct, I might be feeling sorry for both of you because there are two sets of dreams "up in smoke" like Cheech and Chong would say. [/QUOTE]
