You are not cursed!!!
Okay, I've been out of college for a while, and I can tell you that I am in contact with ONE friend from college, and that contact involves maybe one or two emails per year. That's it. I had contact with my best, best friend in the entire world from college for a while, but I no longer speak to her at all (after being threatened by her FREAK boyfriend who is now her husband, among other things). It's funny, because I have very close friends with whom I went to high school, but really not college.
I look at it like this -- I am a VERY different person than I was in college, and even if I were to run into people I knew then, I probably wouldn't want to hang out with them because we would really have nothing in common. There are very few times when I wish I had more friends from college (like homecoming) but it's really not something that EVER bothers me.
You will meet tons of people after you get out of school. I've made friends with people at work, through my alumnae chapter (I'm an alumna initiate), neighbors, through other friends, through boyfriends, whatever. I spend most of my time with my boyfriend, and hell, I met him at a bar!
When you get out of college and move, you're starting fresh. That can be scary, but it can also be very exciting, because who you become and who you choose to spend time with is entirely up to you. That's cool!!
