...See more How can I edit or delete a post? I don't know who I could contact (and how) to make the necessary changes. Thank you in advance!

...See more Another fear that I have is the fear of being alone. It's a little early to think about this, but I'm afraid that after (and even during) college, my friends will eventually dissipate and lose contact with me as they're dealing with their new life situations. Although I don't have too much trouble clicking with new acquaintances (in fact, I enjoy meeting new people), I'm not the best when it comes to keeping my friends even now. I feel like people easily forget about me once they become busy, e.g. with school work, extracurricular activities, and other friends. I've also never been in a relationship, and I'm afraid that I'll be living by myself for the rest of my life. I know I can't presume my future life situation just yet, but I can't help feeling lonely by the real thought of being lonely. People always say that it's difficult to make or keep friends after college.  Does anyone else feel this way too? What can I do to make or maintain meaningful friendships after I finish college? 
Awkwardness in social situations

...See more Whenever I'm talking to someone, I have no idea how to look at them. I would touch my hair constantly because... what else would I do with my hands? I don't know how to look at someone without staring at them (instead, I constantly glance away), and I don't know what kind of facial expression I should hold while I'm listening to them speak. People probably think that I'm either nervous (I panic whenever I feel awkward) or just not listening to them carefully enough.  Is anyone else like this? How do you deal with social awkwardness?
