>tfw when you repost your shitty threads

>mfw I make friends all the damn time with people I hate that won't leave me alone

We have polar opposite problems, what do you propose we do?

You fucking shit

Everyone wants to be friends with everyone in college

Just go introduce yourself to people in your residence or sit next to people in your class. Do it casually, showing that you're comfortable with yourself, and they'll be a lot more receptive.

>>1310913
not OP but if everyone wants to be friends then why does no one want to be my friend? I don't look like a neckbeard and I am not fat

>tfw you've never had a single friend or even someone you could call an acquaintance.

>>1310913
college is exactly like high school socailly

bibbity-bump

>tfw people you don't know at your new college say hi to you or make eye contact with you or sit down at a table with you

>that feeling having no friends in college
>commuter student, almost done with 2nd year
>that feel you interact with people, chat with them, then class ends and its like you dont even know eachother.
>that feel when people just tell you to go make new friends
All right so ill just wander up to anyone and politetly ask "want to be friends." I cant help what I am, i just wish someone would help with the introduction...

Me too, brobot, me too. But I think mine is because I'm in a ltr and therefore unable to go skank-hunting as it were.

how can you not make friends in college? what a fucking loser

I don't even know anyone by name there.

>>1311700
I have all of these feels.
It seems like no one is interested in me asides from just talking in class and grabbing lunches.

>>1311789
>>1311700
well what do you expect as a commuter student? make small talk in class and then head home? how would you expect to make friends that way? have you ever asked any of these people you chat with if they want to hang out?

>>1311700
join fraternity or group outside of class, perhaps organized by school

>>1311700
>tfw you lived in a dorm for a year and didnt make friends and it was the most miserable time of your entire life

>>1311809
No, primarily because they've never asked me.

>try to talk to new people
>we talk for five minutes and they gtfo and ignore me the rest of the day

My averange college day. Not even averange neckbeard conversation about vidya and cartoons, I ask how they are and they just answer and excuse themselves.

>>1311826
I know that feel, but I also understand that people arent always just going to ask me.

So fuck it, ill just wait for something, anything to happen.

>>1311826
>>1311834
when the moment is right, just ask
that moment is usually in the very beginning of college, when nobody knows each other.

I commute so I don't give many fucks. Feels awkward whenever I have to talk to people though.

>>1311705
This.

Seems like no one wants to be your friend unless your single and can go look for chicks to fuck. And it's not like I spend all my time with my gf. I just want some friends that wanna have a few beers and play vidya or go to the sports bar or some shit.

Yeah Iknow that feel bro.

It's just too hard to make friends, so eventually I just gave up.

>>1312014
You gave up from the beginning.
You can become friends with anyone. I saw it happen.
A kid we left out at first... well, we became friends quickly and now he eats lunch with us. That means he's in the group! And I'm a crazy sad girly submissive shy person, and even I have friends. You can too!

Nice Friday night alone to myself. Go me...

>go to commuter university
>get by socially, but was always more extroverted
>don't give a fuck because i have so many other friends

>tfw at the start of the year, you kind of got on well with everyone, but because you hung out with the goth/weird kids this one time out of college time, you are now one of them, and treated as such by everyone else.

It's like school all over again.

>tfw when you've made a few friends during the first semester but can't stand them by the 2nd.

>>1311700
Dude, fuck. Exact same thing for me. I can talk to people, have brief conversations, do group projects, whatever, but after class ends everything just stops. It's like I've forgotten how to make new friends. The internet/4chan made me even more retarded.

In my classes, it seems like people who are friends have already been friends for a while; they talk to their friends and no one else. The circles have already been formed. I can't figure out how to actually be a part of one, or even just befriend one damn person. Even if I sit down next to someone, we introduce ourselves, say hi... it ends there.

I tried joining a club but I don't have a car and couldn't really get home from it.

What kind of things can I do to stop being a socially awkward FA loser?

>>1312348
thats me. all i can do is small talk because i havent done anything interesting and im not an interesting person

>>1314192

I feel you, bro. I can talk to people but it's just so hard to try and befriend people.

I've always felt that there should be videos of normal conversations between normal people available freely on the internet so that I can just copy what they say and do without seeming weird.
Do these exist anywhere?

join a frat? pretty much guaranteed to get friends...

I really lucked out my freshman year of college. Walking around on my first day, I noticed folks playin' Smash Bros. and Guitar Hero, and I loved both. Pretty much that's how I made all my friends freshman year. By junior year, I had only kept two or three of them, but that was still enough.

>TFW plenty of friends but you don't care about them and just want to browse the internet and play games but now your connection is too slow because you switched from fiber optic to dsl and it was supposed to be the same speed and cheaper but you only get 2.5 mbps which is significantly slower than what you were promised.

Corporations are the devil.

>>1311921
>>1311827
>>1311809
>>1311700

Commuter as well, I have no fucking idea how I'm ever going to acquire any friends/get laid at this point (albeit I'm only in the second semester of my first year, so it's not as though all's lost just yet). As has been stated previously, a lot of people already have their uni friends circle already, and as someone who comes and goes I'm an outsider -I just make causal conversation here and there and not much else, and it's not like I can just spontaneously hang with people at the student center at 10pm because guess what, I'm fucking home then. The only people I hang out with are two commuters I went to high school with -all of my other friends went out of state, I didn't because fuck the economy.

You should be required to leave home if you want to go to uni.


>>1313566
I envy you (sort of).

>>1316207
>dat feel when never speak to anyone in class because none of them want to talk to me
>dat feel when they sit on the other side of the class room so it would be to awkward to try and talk to them
>dat look on their face when at the end of the semester and you have to give a presentation and they are too surprised to see you talk to pay attention to your presentation.

Rinse and repeat, all year every year.

bumpan or loner college styudents.

Im about to start first year of Uni in a couple of days. In a Computer science course of about 30 guys and 2 girls. how do i make friends?

>>1320598

It's already February, so I doubt it's "a couple of weeks" until school starts. It usually begins in January, unless you mean you just applied and are starting next term.

As to your question, attend the Freshman Welcome Week events on campus if you go to any decently sized uni. You'll usually meet new people, get free food, and probably encounter some hot piece of ass cruising for a lay. That work out for you?

>>1319815

>Never had a friend that was a girl

Unless you live in a gender-segregated culture or have lived in a cage your whole life, I'm not sure how this is at all fucking possible.

How can you not have ANY female friends? They are far easier to make friends with than boys.

god I love college

no more competing with 15 other guys for the one hot girl in the whole class
50 girls to 1 guy ratio, all guys are bros, instead of retards in highschool that when you try to befriend they treat you like shit

>>1320782

What college do you go to where this is the case?

The only way there's that high a girl::boy ratio is if you're an English major, and even then the effeminate, twiggy, ironically bearded hipsters in the front of the room are more attractive to women then you will ever be.

>>1319815
1st year of college there were a lot of people in my group, and one of them a "facebook blonde", you know, makeup, rich, constantly on facebook, you know whatever place she's been from there, etc., checks her fb on her phone

for the first few days I ignored her and tried to befriend the girls I thought would make better friends, she all of a sudden asks why don't you like talking to me, I apologize and talk a bit with her, turns out we live close to each other, she offers to drive me home

I end up befriending her, going to her place to study, she's not stupid but since she's rich and didn't have to bother for a degree she dropped out 2nd year, and here I am missing her

she was a bro and changed my perspective, sure she may not make the best choices but she wasn't the bitch I expected first time I layed eyes on her

from now on I'll stop judging girls depending on how they look


>>1320812
lol don't worry all of the girls -except the one above- have boyfriends who are all older and out of college

and it's foreign languages, English among them

It's amazing how you can know absolutely fucking everyone at your university, including lots of people you've known since high school, have plenty of friends, not be particularly offensive looking

and still have slim as fuck chances of getting laid.

>>1320812
and yes all of the boyfriends I've seen, although I didn't talk with them much fit your description

ottermode, bony, that most of all they have no muscles and no fat on them either, and wear weird clothes
I'm burying myself in books and hobbies while the available girls sometimes hit on me and I try to not turn them down directly but in secret I'm just waiting for one of the hotter ones. Yeah I'm bound to be swimming in it soon aren't I?

>>1320820

What is your native language?

>>1320840
I live in E Europe any more details and you could hunt me down.

>tfw no friends in college
>twf when lab class with group assignments
>"ok class, form teams of 4 people!"
>everyone except you teams up
>one guy forgets his student number
>"ok then, as a punishment you get to work with anon there"
tfw when you doing something with you is a punishment, even if teacher intented it as a joke

>>1320820
oh yeah and the best thing about me being friends with that girl was that everyone got the impression we were hooking up, dat jelly, the questions - I like fucking with people's heads

>>1320918
Maybe if you'd be less exclusive and intolerant, I'd feel a bit more empathy for your complaints of other people acting exclusive and intolerant

>no interest in partying
>i am very quiet and akward when getting to know people

>actually very outgoing once i know you well enough
>still i contact with HS friends and have select friends here
>just cannot branch out, have to meet others through others
>i will be lonely for a couple years but eventually get some great friends
i hope

I joined a club to try and make friends, I tried talking to everyone and being friendly but I still have to be the one to start convos and keep them going, I guess I'm either more boring or annoying than I thought.

anyone else here in college that has no girlfriend either and never had one?

anymore here with no friends in high school/college?

>>1322425
right here.

I have a good, small group of friends from high school, but I don't have a single friend in college. There are perhaps 4 acquaintances I have. I've just given up since I hate my school's demographic. Planning to transfer. In the meantime I just workout and make money.

>>1320899
This fucking feel. Worse when it's group assignments outside of the class, worth half of the semester grade. I failed a class last year because of this, and this year another teacher is giving THE SAME FUCKING ASSIGNMENT.

If I didn't liked the course I'd have dropped by now, fuck.

>tfw you have only the one friend, and you know you act like a goddamned retard around him, repelling other potential friends, but you need to because it's the only way he's semi decent company, otherwise he's completely unresponsive.

>>1320771

I went to an all-male catholic high school. In college I didn't make any friends because no one wants to speak with a creepy loser like myself. It's not that difficult to understand.

You guys have to realize friendship means that you and the other person have something in common so you guys can actually talk and do shit together.

Video games count. Real life sports are even better. As long as you have something to talk about with another person for 20 min you can get friends in no time.


Also only about 1 in 10 people can be your TRUE FRIEND. Don't take it personal when that person rejects you. It might be for whatever reasons, but you have to know that not everyone is available to be a friend.

>>1323407

what is your life like now? Are you always alone in your room with no goals or direction?

>>1323407

did you leave the board? forever? ;-;

jhuivhiugouij

>>1310917
That doesn't matter. Maybe they don't want to be your friend because you're immature?

>all previous college friends are either doing teaching rounds, dropped out, graduated, gone to other universities
>all actual friends are at various other universities, see them outside of uni times
>mfw I literally have no friendly faces to look for come the 20th

fuck this gay earth, the only way I got a circle of uni friends was because another friend knew a friendship group already and I joined in with it, also I don't stick around at uni I go in, I go to classes and I leave again because it's like a 30 minute commute, there's like a ten minute window in a lecture to make small talk and it always seems like everyone knows everybody else already FUCK

>tfw arrive early, sit somewhere, class fills up but I'm never sat next to by anyone

im so hideously ugly i can't even be friends with ugly people because they think I bring down their status
every single lecture i sit alone in my own row
every lunch i sit alone at my own table
every night i sleep alone in my own bed
this is all i know in life, this is my fate

>>1333303

not for the money i just want to contribute to humanity even though im not a member

You get use to it. It's not worth reposting threads about.

>tfw I joined a fraternity to get laid

It works, but the girls are nasty.

>>1334139
lol u fagts wil nevr be liek us bros

It's really awkward for me, because I've got 'friends' on my course by chance - but I'm so fucked up socially that I can't talk to them properly.

Like, I can't speak unless spoken to, and even then it's mostly laughing as a response or one word answers. I try to ask questions in response to their stories, but it comes across as so forced.

I'm occasionally invited out with them, but I'm so silent I know they regret it and only invite me because they feel they have to. And I share a house with one, so I can't make excuses and then just be in my room...

Right now they're at the pub (I know this because of facebook). They didn't invite me, and I don't know how to feel about it... I'm glad as I don't have to sit there and wish I was dead, but I just wish I could be normal.

>that feel when community college in a predominately mexican part of the country

>I'm occasionally invited out with them, but I'm so silent I know they regret it and only invite me because they feel they have to. And I share a house with one, so I can't make excuses and then just be in my room

thats some poor planning, bro

>>1334926
I know, but what the fuck can I do? It's obvious I've got nothing else to do.

>>1334672
Dan?

I'm willing to bet that they didn't invite you out somewhere like a (noisy, belligerent) pub because they figured you wouldn't enjoy yourself. For your friends to invite you out to other places means that they want you there, not that they feel that you have to go. They're probably just waiting for you to come around.

Don't feel bad or anything, you have friends that can recognize that you have a better time in places other than the pub. You can work on being more normal. It's awkward as fuck, but you can still manage. All it takes more socializing, and it eventually gets easier.

All of my friends are from work and I avoid my classmates like the plague. I'm the one that drags all of my friends together when we hang out, though. We're all perverts, weaboos, shut-ins, sick fucks and there's even a furry. No one is too upset if they lose their spaghetti because we've seen everyone else do something just as bad at one point or another.

Not Dan, whoever he is.

Ah, maybe you're right. But I've witnessed them bitching about not wanting to invite awkward people or people they don't like too much, but are still 'friends' with... then still inviting them because they feel they have to.

I used to be better at this, but I think it's gotten worse with age. Either that, or it's just more apparent because I'm an 'adult'. Kids get away with it easier.

I start uni soon (about three weeks).
The thing is that I am mature age (24) and I fear the I won't fit in or make friends because I will be older than most people.
Any other older people going to uni/collage?

>>1340750
No one will give a fuck there are alot of mature age students at my uni and im talking proper mature 40+ not 24 lol and no one cares . The success rate of mature agers is much higher than the fresh out of hs kids aswell

>>1340750
Most people in my college are 22+

Early 20s is not that unusual in college, really.

>>1340750
Don't be that guy who's trying too hard to look "young" and "cool" and you shouldn't have any problem at all.

went to college non of my friends from high school went to the same college as me. so had to make new friends. make some cool friends but once i intro them to my other new fiends they then stop talking / hanging out with me. mfw i'm better off being a matchmaker. fck

>>1320771
Why do you say that? I didn't have any friends that were girls in till my second year of university, and only then because she was a friend of a friend. I usually hang out with (well used to anyways so I don't have any friends at my university right now) people who share the same interest as me like games, movies (girls only like romantic crap), anime, shooting, and other typical nerd stuff.

>have loads of close friends from school all at different unis
>have one bro and a couple of acquaintances/friends at uni
>have an extensive circle of extremely close, very good friends in the city I live in, who are for all intents and purposes like a second family. Drink with them, go out with them, take drugs with them, go on holiday with them, etc. etc.

kelburn campus, economics and philosophy

I'm starting my first year in university in a few weeks, and I'm worried as fuck about making new friends within the first week. I know if I don't, then it'll only become increasingly harder to get to know people once they've all created their own groups of friends.

>Girl arrives late to class

Yeah, well. Fuck you too

I moved out of state and went to a community college. There's a couple dudes I talk to in class a little, but I never go out with anyone.

One of my friends from back home ended up going to a college near me. I hung out with him once and haven't heard from him since. Feels shitty. There was this hot black chick who i think was digging me too, but obviously I can't really meet her again with out him inviting me back on to their campus.

>Go to one of the top party schools in US

Living like this isn't so bad. It's comforting knowing my friends will never know that I'm a very lonely guy just trying to have a good time. I've haven't done or said anything that would indicate that.

now I've realized my mistake, but at this point everybody in my upper-year classes and upper-year dorm has a group of friends already and isn't much interested in meeting anyone new. people are nice enough when you introduce yourselves, but they're too busy with studies and their established social routines to bother with you. shit sucks.
first years, don't do what I did.

>go to commuter college
>ask awkward classroomfriends if they want to hang out after class

every fucking time.

I might join an awkward social group If they have one
I read that they exist seems like a great idea

anybody ever gone to something like that?

Come the fuck on guys. It's college. The prime of your life. Do you really think it's your college's fault/other people's fault you've made no meaningful relationships in college? That it's someone ELSE's fault that you live in complete isolation?

The only one to blame is yourself. DON'T put yourself in such a trapped situation. Don't blame your surroundings as barriers to your happiness. Quit acting like the victim.

Quit living in isolation. Go out there, fight social anxiety, and fix your situation yourselves. Don't wait for someone else to change that for you.

only made two friend and they are much older than me.

I admittedly had a case of guffaws, good show! Good show!

Oh man. If it weren't for my girlfriend I would do nothing but play vidya all day everyday.

I get out to hangout with her and some of the people from her floor, but damn I am just so unsocial.

I even tried to make some friends in the first week with people on my floor, but they didn't seem interested.

Whatever.

I know that feel OP.

Guys help me out, There is this cute somewhat chubby Asian in one of my classes, how do I become friends with her? She is somewhat outgoing. She just hasn't sat anywhere near me.

anyone else here not going to a college or uni? If so, what are you planning on doing with your life from here until then?

He's socially awkward, has crazy opinions and ideas, but because he's friendly and a nice person, I don't mind him.


You be friendly and kind too.

bermpan for more loners..
b

What is college like for you loners? Do you just wait until school is over with no social interaction? that's what it was like for me in high school.

I get overtly extroverted jock/pothead-type people to talk with me but nobody with similar interests and personalities.

It doesn't help that I go to a lowly community college school with retards.

Worse part is is that I COULD afford to go to a university, but I heard the quality of the instructors is much better and you don't have to share one with 499 other people; how people learn in that environment I don't know.

I like my instructors, but they I don't fit into the atmosphere that well (whitest guy on campus.)

Fortunately(probably because of the above), I appear to be very memorable to my peers as they constantly come up to me(they always initiate because they all look alike) and all of them have remember me by name, which is odd because I never knew any of them outside of class.

And while I am on the topic of college:

I'm sick if people who go to the library as if it is a fucking cafe and converse with each other as loud and obnoxious as they can. They don't even fucking read anything, either. They could be anywhere. ANYWHERE, but they always choose the fucking library. EVEN WORSE is that they try to sit as close to me as they can and squawk to each other in their nigger-dialect.

bermp for more college guys with no friends.

bermpan for dreamcast.

Oh what the fuck, I want the exact same thing. A while ago I searched high and low for this sort of thing and couldn't find a single video. TV is useless because conversations skip parts and even if it seems genuine the body language is probably slightly off.
It would be so helpful. Just the body language and introductions and subtle stuff would help so much. A few times I've sat behind a group of friends on the train with my headphones in to pretend I'm listening to music, but actually concentrated on their conversations. Didn't really help since they were all obviously friends and referencing past events and people.

I would pay for videos like that...

I'm a sophomore in college, not completely alone. A girl I was friends with in high school goes here too, and is basically my best friend and the only reason why I even have friends. She's been spending almost all her time with her boyfriend though so I barely even hang out with her. My only other real friend is my roommate but he spends most of his time with his girlfriend. I'm friendly with a lot of people in my major (computer engineering) and we get along well, but I never hang out with them outside of class aside from doing assignments.
I still get to go to parties occasionally and stuff, so I can't complain that much. My roommates always over at his gf's place, so I get plenty of time to browse 4chan and play vidya.

This might help.

The data about body language should be useful even though you're not looking to flirt.
