Stop complaining about your past (which you have no control over) and start realizing that you didn't miss out on anything. You want to know the difference between being in college and in the "real world"? Not a damn thing. It's all in your head. It's all about your expectations. People expect college to be filled with parties and social activities. People expect when they get a real job and get married for their life to be over. Why? Because those are the social norms.
Neither one of those norms need define you. You have just as much opportunity for socializiation now, as you do when you were in college.
Also, stop blaming your dad for a choice YOU made.
(btw, I'm not some guy on a high horse here. I'm a guy who went through exactly what you went through in college, right down to the detail of my dad pushing me into an Engineering program)
