Move in day on saturday-not so sure anymore.. HELP..

Hi guys. Im not sure i can relate to anyone in here, but hopefully at least one of you went through the same and i can get some encouragement or some wise ideas.

Ok here is the thing..

This saturday Is the move in day for College which I was really exited for. but recently im having second thoughts. why you ask? its my mom and family and friends.

Me and my mom have a really close bond, i have never been away from her for more than a month. Just thinking of me going away and not seeing her brings me to tears sometimes. ( this is kind of odd coming from a guy but cant really help it).

Ill try to come home in the weekends and stuff but it still feels bad. the college is 3 hours away from my house so i think i can manage to come in the bus in the weekends.

How did you guys pull through it? Im not sure i can do it.

I guess i lost my point :-/

 

Can't really relate because I was glad to move out to college, but her voice is always a phone call away. My college was about 2 hours away from home, but I was able to make it home for a weekend around once a month during the school year, maybe a little less, but each time I went back it started to feel more like I was visiting my parents rather than going home (maybe because they renovated my room) but everyone is different.

 

Being a bit anxious about change is normal and going away from your support base (family & friends) makes it harder. But they are only a phone call away and I'm sure your mom would love a weekly call from you though you'll probably end up too busy to do that soon enough with your schoolwork and social life to fill your time.

Best of luck to you.

 

idk.. the problem is that im dependent from my mom right now, and becoming independent is a really high jump..
im also afraid of "visiting my parents" rather than going home... Because home has always been with mom and dad.. do i make sence?
lol i feel weird to vent out in here, but i had no where else to do it.:-/

 

im definitely calling her as many times as i can.. but its really not the same.
how did you guys pull through?

 

I've always been extremely independent, so like I said earlier I can't really relate, I was more excited about being on my own than apprehensive about what I was leaving behind. I think it was rougher on my parents than it was on me.

 

Suck it up!!!!!! Momas boy!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, I felt exactly how you are feeling now. Not going to say it gets any easier but as stated above she is always a phone call away. It gets a tad bit easier not much but time passes and it helps. Man I used to get hammered when the boys would ask who I was talking to and then i would say mom. Never lived that down. You should be fine......

Good luck !!!!

 

I personally think it is great that you have such a good relationship with your mom. Speaking as a mother to a son......I want the best for my son and I want him to grow, learn and experience new things in life. And I want him to do always do more with his life than his father and I did with ours.

As to how to get through this.....the first few months will be the most difficult, but you will also be very busy with classes and learning a new routine. And your mom is always a phone call away!

 

lol. ive gotten the quote above many times.. XD im actually proud of having the relationship i have with my mom. wouldnt change it for anything.
Hope your right;D

thanks for the support guys.8)

 

thanks... it means a lot coming from a mom.
If i were your son, what would you like me to do on the "good bye" day..
let me refrase that.. on the " see you soon" day..
