Choosing college type workplaces?

All through much of my college, I missed all of the fun in college life because I had to take care of my uncle dying from cancer(who was my step father). Now he is dead and I have finished college and entered corporate life. I from India. I know workplaces in USA are strictly used for work. However in India some workplaces have a college kind of environment, with clubs, TGIF parties, dance competitions and the like. Now when I have to choose jobs, I'm inclined to choose the workplaces offering this college kind of envionment because of what I have missed during my college life. Because of what I have missed I have few friends and lack the ability to make friends with strangers. I feel only by putting myself into college kind of workplace I can correct the faults in my personality. I have chosen to decline the job offer from an excellent job because it doesn't have this environment. I'm not able to go against my heart. Is this attitude of mine correct?

Bless you heart ! You are trying so hard and -for what?! I wouldn't toil over such silly thinking. Man, I wish I could of earned a college degree to be more finacially secure. Who gives a dam about missing out on this or that. You have accomplished in your life something that college drop- out fools like myself will only dream of! You can make friends anywhere and have fun anywhere. It doesn't have to be with college type people or inviroments ! You need to look for inviroments where you feel most happy! Where do you really fit in? Confused? I think you just need to go to church somewhere and get involved there and rest will follow. Good Luck my friend!
Reply:Nope it is normal - seek the workplace that you can catch up on your social life - life is about balance and enjoying life
Reply:there is no fault in your personality from what I see here. Connect with people who you feel right with. This is the right connection for you. Happiness is not found in the sum of the paycheck. Happiness comes from within. Pursue this, and you will not regret it.
