I was married for my last three years of college (did the 5 year plan due to transfer). I guess I was lucky in that I never felt ostrasized by marriage. My school had a big commuter population and I became friends with girls in my major (nursing) who were also commuters and had transferred to the sch. We went out for lunches and got together for study sessions at each others apts. and basically just hung out together everyday at sch. in the student center between classes (since we had no dorm to crash in and there wasn’t time to drive all the way home and come back for the afternoon lab). One of those girls got married in our jr. yr. and I was in her wedding. DH went along to some college activities with me. He also had friends from college/work living in the same city so we got together with them fairly often as well. I never felt like I was missing out.
