I’m Having A Social Life Crisis In College…how Do I Find My Place In This City?


I’m a sophomore in college (and female) and I’m going through what I suppose a lot of college students are (even though it doesn’t seem like it) where I’m trying to figure out where I belong in life. It’s sort of a confusion phase of figuring out your future, who you are, and what you want from life. I think last year as a freshman I was more lost than ever, but now I feel relatively more comfortable in my new home. I moved from a rural area to a (smaller/medium-sized) city, so it took some getting used to, and I still am getting used to it in some regards.
Despite this, I’m still not “settled” or exactly comfortable in my own shoes. I’m trying to figure out where I fit in (with respect to social groups in college); there’s obviously a life after college, too, so I would like to have some sense of security in terms of social friendships/relationships, because (correct me if I’m wrong) developing those connections is very difficult after college.
I feel intimidated because it seems like so many students have found their niche in life by the time they are my age (ie: a sophomore, approaching junior year) and are not looking for a group of friends. How can I ensure that I find my place in this city? I’m quite school/career focused and individualistic and so is everyone else…so sometimes I find it difficult to make those personal connections. Most people I know seem to be confident about their life and have a lot going for them. Whereas I just feel confused and hopeful for a good future. I guess it’s not that I’m not doing anything… I get mostly A’s, have a part time job, and a few good friends (2 or 3 close friends) but for some reason I still can’t find my niche where I feel comfortable with myself. Two of those three close friends also have a lot of friends, so I’m more of an “option”. I’m also single (and have been since I was 16) so having a relationship is something I’d like to happen in the next couple of years
Any general life advice? I just really don’t feel like I’ve found my niche or a close GROUP of friends that give me a sense of closeness, stability and support. I really don’t think I’m one of those weird people who can’t make friends–I’m totally like-able, but I feel unsettled like I’m lacking something in the social department

How Do You Decide If A Non Profit Is Worth Voluntering With?


i am triying to figure out, am I wasting my time?
The members of an affiliate non profit do not voluteer or work as a team, it is frustrating,
everyone does their own thing.
so called members do not support President, try to change what President requests espicially do not honor affiliate procedures. There is cross talk and side conversations during business meeting.
Several say I’ll do this and that and do not follow through or forget.
Two so called members have thier own agenda not developed by President are demanding and rude.
There is too much conflict and drama and ego
No response from some when emailed.
Most do nothing no volunteering.
I believe in the mission but the local group is so non active
And yes I am the president who feels like I am beating a dead dog with a stick trying to organize some oreder with the year plans and events. I know other areas are sucessful yet our rural area is challanging.Nothing improves in the community when most in this group demand thier own way, there is no team work and they so respond by actively volunteering.
