Just pretty much got slapped in the face by a close friend....
Im a college sophomore, nothing out of the ordinary, friends and such, We all have friends that we are exceptionally close with, you know the type. So anyway, me and this guy have been hanging out for like a year now, close friends here, always chilling together and such. So anyway, when it came time for room selection last year, he told he roommate a while ago theyd live together the next year, and i was cool with that. He said too that he wanted to live off campus next year, as did I, so we basically agreed to do so. All seemed to be going to plan, when tonight he IM's me and tells me that he got a place with these 2 other guys and that we arent gonna be living together afterall. While this may seem trival, and it probably is, this is the third time i've gotten screwed over in rooming, and I liked having the security of knowing it. To me, this was like a "[censored] you." He and hang out all the time, and id venture to say that all of our friends thought we were a shoe in to live together. Now this, and I feel terrible. I dont really like the school anymore, and I really only kept going cause its a good school and he and i had a lot of fun together and such, and I was looking foward. Now this, and I feel like crap.
So I ask, OOT, whats my play here? I get depressed when I leave home and am homesick most of the year, but I like it here too sometimes. And now this, a slap in the face, and were do I stand?
P.S. THis is probably borderline [censoring] material, so if it happens, im ready, but I needed to clear my mind and ask for some advice.
