Nothing wrong with feeling emotions homie, no matter the age. Only a prob if u take it out on people or don’t get over it after like a week lol

You’re not a man youre still growing up. You’re homesick and miss your family this is a new start for you its natural

I completely feel this. I forget exactly what the terminology is but it’s something to do with having an anxious (or anxious+avoidant?) attachment style. Basically you feel fine when you’re together with a person and then when your brain feels like your being abandoned all the anxiety and sadness comes up

This is so valid. I’m 19 and my dad dropped me off at the library today and seeing him pull away out the parking lot and drive off and I felt like crying.

I cried most of my first year every time my mom dropped me off. I went home every weekend. Then I realized it's harder when you go home, so I started staying a little bit more until I was able to stay and go. Now that I'm a junior, I stay on campus more. You need to find some friends with whom you can hang out, as it will help distract you. I used to call my parents every day for my first semester of college. And what is while is I would go on camping trips for months and stay with my grandma

Homesickness is real, its my senior year and it still hurt to see my dad drive away

If you’ve got a solid relationship with your dad, still call him for advice/wisdom. My dad didn’t always have the answers I needed, but I could tell he appreciated me asking what he thought about things, especially when I was in a position of indecisiveness.
