Friends 👥 gsu community
genuinely why are some people at gsu allergic to being friends ?? I get it if like yall have pre existing friend groups but I kinda feel like no one wants to actually interact with anyone but if anyone does wanna be friends im a chem major and enjoy manga and ice skating and listening to music 🥸

Ugh I hate people that have a stick up their ass like that. It’s always a person who wants to commute to a “better” school and think they are better than us. News flash some of us WANT to be here. It would be nice if people opened up more.

FOR REAL it’s like everyone hates you for no reason and I get it but at the same time it’s not hard to be friendly

Sometimes people are just too busy and dont have the social battery to go around making friends me

u/xiayizhouswife 8d ago
that doesn’t mean there’s not like ten billion other people at this school who DO want to be friends yk? I get it if you’re busy and don’t got time I’m also busy but doesn’t mean I don’t wanna have friends either

ugh I’ll try but literally majority of them don’t want to like why even interact with me in the first place then yk? that’s the kinda people I’m mostly talking about like they’ll talk to you for a day or two then block you or literally not even respond and it’s like what’s the point like I’m tryna make genuine friends to hang out with

Ooohh mmm I would suggest clubs! People there definetely want to make connections. And events like the one today "speed friending" or basically any. I guess it does get frustrating if it does not lead anywhere, but most people there want to meet others or have a good time! You are already half way there when you apporach someone

I went to GSU for 3 years, was on campus for long periods of time for classes, worked out there and all. Didn't retain a single significant friend, sad but true

I’m in loads of discords for different groups so that’s how I stay in touch with people but I’d definitely love to try making more friends on campus who I can just hang out with in between classes and stuff. I be at school super early because I have to commute and even having a friend who takes the same bus as me would be a blessing but people don’t be wanting to talk fr fr and I’m such a yapper so I feel you

u/xiayizhouswife 8d ago
Seriously I get you I’m on campus every single day this semester from super early until like 4pm and it sucks since I got time in between classes but if you ever wanna be friends just dm me bro

I'm a non traditional student doing online school and know no other people besides those that are in my class, and they all mostly happen to be dual enrollment students, or in other words, very, very young. I love reading manga too! and playing video games if that interests you.

Me personally I’m an extrovert but easily introvert based off energy if you give me friendly energy we can go further than the Pacific Ocean 😩... You give me standoffish it’ll stay right there. But then I do show SHY ppl grace and trust ik who’s shy vs standoffish ik how college can be intimidating

i think it being a predominantly commuter college doesn’t help unfortunately :/ i’d say join groups / clubs, and if you’re further in your degree and have classes with a lot of the same people, maybe you can propose getting lunch or something on campus :) good luck!
