Im gonna be a freshman at UCLA in about 20 days. WOO!! Anyways, here’s my question. I went to a HS known for having wealthy students and I felt very privileged to go there. However, doing the last four years, my parents have lost almost all of their money on a super bad divorce+high medical costs for my brother’s cancer treatments. Anyways, Im basically going into college with almost no money for fun activities (like dinners, movies, etc.). I didn’t really date in HS because girls didn’t understand why I couldn’t dump $100+ like it was nothing (I still went to the wealthy HS but moved to a more working class area). Anyways, I know college students aren’t usually super rich, but will my lack of money seriously hinder my dating abilities?
