1. Money. I can't afford to get tattoos or go to a fancy private college (not to mention I am barely passing my university program as it is cause I am not that good at what I do), and considering I lost my last job cause I wasn't able to keep up with it and school, I won't be getting that money any time soon.

2. True, but considering he has a girlfriend there and the last time I managed to get him on a call he was at a party with his friends, its safe to say its at least not all made up. (Also he is not abroad he just moved across the US so there probably is some culture shock it wouldn't be as bad as going abroad.)

1. Lame. I hope you can save up for a tattoo and live your dream!

2. On the off chance that he's just being a dickhead, then I'd just say drop him off your radar until he decides to stop being one.

Hair dye's pretty cheap, though. If nothing else, there's always Kool Aid. You don't need tons of money to meet new people, either.

But seriously, there's a saying about how you shouldn't compare your behind-the-scenes with someone else's highlight reel. Yeah, your friend was at a party. It doesn't mean there are no shitty parts of his life, it's just that he's not sharing the details with you... and that's no surprise, right? Few people want to regale their friends with stories about personal failures, especially when they're supposed to be off at a fancy private school having the time of their lives.

This isn't going to sound fun, but put some more time into your studies. If you aren't good at what you do, well, ask yourself under what circumstances that could change. More study time? More reading? Asking professors for help? Changing your major, or at least picking up some classes that might not be relevant to your major but that interest you?

(re: the hairdye I have black hair naturally so dying my hair keeping it from looking shitty is actually more of a process for me but that is not really related to the discussion. Also I have kind of bad social anxiety so meeting new people is kind of difficult for me.)

If he isn't telling me about the bad parts of his life I am kind of unhappy about that too though cause we have been friends since we were children and we used to be those "tell each other everything" friends and frankly not being that anymore is weirdly hard on me.

As for the school things: I'm an art major so it is a question of talent (I started near the top of the program and as of the last ranking I have dropped so far), I'm a senior so its too late to change, and... yeah. I have been putting more time into school but it barely seems to be helping, so I figure its just a flaw in me.

Bad social anxiety can be a big problem. If it's stopping you from doing the things you want-- such as making new friends-- it's time to address it, though. College is full of all different kinds of people, including introverts with social anxiety. I know, because I was one of them. The trick is in finding your people.

The transition between high school life and college life is a huge one. Not gonna lie, friendships get tested by things like distance and the fact that you're both immersed in different environments. Growing apart is natural. If you want to hang onto this friend, then make the effort, but don't let that stop you from meeting new people no matter what.

As for the last, don't give up, man. College can be a long slog and it's normal to feel defeated by the process at times. Keep working at what you're doing and hopefully find work that you love.

I'm sorry you don't have the means - but remember, there are lots of exciting adventures you can have without spending a lot of money!
Even if you're struggling in school, don't forget to take a bit of time off every so often, just to keep yourself from going insane.
