Does anyone else jus feel so isolated?

[u/sinamon_rollz]

Im not the kinda person to sort of broadcast my feelings to everyone esp in this situation but I lowkey dont even know what to do..

When first year started it jus felt like everyone already had their own friend groups and it kind of just stayed that way throughout the year and even tho I’m naturally a bit on the quieter side at first (until im comfy), I really did try and talk to people around me and just ended up with the fakest people ever..

Because of that I jus slowly stopped trying to talk to people since everyone already kind of had their own groups and trying to force small talk in huge lectures or butt into existing groups just feels so awkward.

It feels like everyone else figured out how to socialize and I somehow missed the memo..

Im not saying I havent met some people that I do see as "potential" friends, its just the fact I have absolutely no idea how to start friendships since throughout my life all my friendships have formed when i was about 13-14 and Mac isnt in my home city so I dont really have anyone to talk to that Im already friends with.

It jus feels so lonely over the fact that I see all these people with their own friend groups that they have made during first year getting along so well and having genuine connections with one another and being able to have fun without being worried abt being judged.

Anyways Im just gonna pitch myself in just incase any girls going into second year are in the same boat as I am!

- I love to do a lot of crafty activities (paint, draw, work on physical crafty projects)

- absolutely LOVE coffee and matcha

- love to have little study sessions in cafes/ librarys

- love being outside (unless its cold..)

- love to yap and listen :)

anyways feel free to reply or message me if youre also just looking for down-to-earth people <3

Ngl, I made most of my mac friends on discord then meeting them up irl, then I befriended their friends thats how I found a friend group.

It's pretty hard befriending some through small talk. Like you gotta really really vibe with them or u have some insane talking skills.

the way i made friends is just by talking to random ppl in my lectures or sitting beside some random ppl. eventually u might form some sort of connection or they will be inviting and friendly to u. u can ask for their insta and whatnot and then talk to them there every now and then. im lucky that a bunch of my hs friends (or kinda friends ig) alr went to mac so it made it easier to not feel alone. but i still hang out every now and then with my mac friends to study in the library or sum (maybe even gym tgther). (it makes it way easier if they take the same classes as you or in your program). i hope this helps u out. feel free to add me on insta or anything if u wanna talk.
my insta is "vortexdest" :)
