Have you thought about enrolling in college for the first time? Is it dawning on you that you may have missed out on something?

Nah. IF I needed to start over right now, I would go to a trade school for plumbing, electrical engineering or HVAC.

If you go to College as a 30+ year old and expect to have a social life you're going to be an outcast and a strange creepy figure.

>>83519909
I think youre latching on too much to that one piece of information given in the thread
>>
>>83519909
Is it really worse to be an outcast or creepy character rather than a non-existent one at home?
>>
>>83519928
but he is right. seen that many times, people think yeah back to college life, now I will get the thots! while being fat and balding. If you didn't get pussy in college at 20, it's unlikely you will get it at 30.
>>
I'm 30 and going back is pointless because I still have the same crippling anxiety disorders and psychosis that made me drop out when I was 19. I failed then and I would fail again today. I have not mentally developed since I was 14, I am still terrified to be in the presence of other people.

this. i gave it a try 3 times before I gave up

i can't believe i went to college and never attended a single party. i made no friends either. i was a recluse; it was entirely my fault kek. i didn't dorm, at least I have that excuse. also worked a job. was drained with work, vidya was my outlet.
>>
I know it's not 100% realistic but watching college party movies is getting to me.

I enrolled at 29 (week before my 30th birthday) and now I'm 32 and halfway finished with my degree, but currently taking an off year and just NEETing. I start again next August.

>Is it dawning on you that you may have missed out on something?
idk what this means, missing out on an education? or do you mean social "experiences"?
>>
>>83519889
I went to university and got a master's. I am thinking of returning and doing a PhD. I realised I love R&D and teach more than I love delivering shit and talking to clients.

I'm love summer at work because kids turn up and I spent most of my time teaching and challenging them. I love interns, juniors and arguing theory with other seniors.

no one treats me this way or thinks this though, no one knows my age or has guessed correctly. I usually tell people I worked for a couple years before going back to school and they assume I'm more like 24~ because of that. Most grad students are pushing 30 years old. Completely normal.

>>83519889
Im 30 enrolling in college in EU as an American because its basically free or way cheaper

I probably wont be making friends with college kids though but will with others

>>83519909

I don't think so, in public university in the US i seen people as old as their 40s. I still look about 22 myself so i shouldn't stick out too much
>>
I don't know what classes I'd take anyway. I don't know how people pick.
