Just be yourself. You might be alone. Now, but remember that there will be someone out there you can talk to and keep in contact with.

hey @Christv1378 I understand where you're coming from. It's always hard when the people you used to hang with have new friends while you feel stuck. I suggest that you start doing things you appreciate and indulge in self-care so that you don't feel as lonely. Watch your favourite movies, read books, and have your own karaoke night. Do whatever and enjoy your own company. But meanwhile also try and reach out to new people while being yourself. You can also try online apps like BumbleBFF and even join in on sharing circles.

This was literally me last year. I started filling my time with things I like to do. Ex) Reading and running. Idk if this helps but joining some of the clubs there would help you find some familiar faces. Or even getting a job on campus if you can. I can definitely understand why it’s hard. Everyone has seem to have found their group. But in the end maybe what you don’t need is your group. Maybe you need a work friend or a familiar face in a crowd just to start. I know it’s not the best advice but it’s what helped me last year, I hope it helps you
