Friends being preoccupied with uni
Is anyone getting pissed off at being totally neglected by friends who are about to go to uni? I used to be really good friends with this girl and now she's about to go to uni all she can go on about is how stressed she is. She asks how I am but never seems in the least bit interested in my responses. She's said several times that she wants us to meet up before she goes away, and said she'd keep me posted about a date, but has she done so? Of course not.
Are anybody else's friendships suffering as a result of university?

Well when are you off to uni? I myself get bored with Cambridge's long holidays and get annoyed when my friends go away cos I'm stuck on my own with nothing to do and I want to go back. So just wait a little while longer til you can go back, then tell her all about how great your uni is!

I'm not going to uni until next year
Hence I'm feeling somewhat left out. She could be a little more sensitive, I know it's a stressful time for her but she's not the only one who's stressed

People all deal with stress differently mate, if i was you i'd just take a back seat for a bit.
Let her sort herself out and then i'm sure you will be back to really good friends when your both stress free!

I guess so. It's just annoying when she's so self-absorbed like that. I try to help but it seems to do sod all. I feel useless
Can i come to the wedding ?

I met alot of friends in the year above me last year, and though most of them have gone to uni now (inc. my boyf) they got stressed and you just had to step back and let them rant at you, giving advice when someone is majorly stressed tends to be quite pointless coz they usually dnt listen or take it in, and it can be very annoying but at the end of the day they will eventually calm down.
I feel for you when u feel irritated by your friends behaviour, but she probably doesnt realise what shes doing rite now.

:shakehand
:shakehandThat wasn't a real hug, you need a hug like this
And about the uni thing, uni is a big change for anyone, let your friend get on with it and when she's got used to the change she'll probably realise she's been so caught up in the experience that she's neglected her friends.
i feel the same, i didnt get in this year and i hate it when my friends go on and on about being worried and stressed. i know it must be hard for them but im finding it so difficult to deal with them going away ive started avoiding my friends who are going. it sucks
