making friends is impossible

I’ve started a new school (a uk college) and generally everyone I’ve spoken to either has establish friendships or does not want to speak!!? I genuinely don’t know what to do I have no friends and I don’t know how to start making them. I’m convinced I’m gonna have to spend the whole 2 years alone!!

To people who’ve been in this situation, how’d it go?

Don't give up 💚

It is hard when others are already friends.

Keep reaching out, join some clubs, get to know others and just be yourself.

Be active .

Be engaging and I hope you meet people soon 💚

I have been in such situation and can completely understand how you might be feeling. Trust the power of universe to introduce you with the right people at right time, till then enjoying our own company makes us more resilient.

Hoping that you will sooon have a chance to meet YOUR people, till then consider me as friend who totally understands you and wishes u the best✨

Stuck in exact same situation for the last 2.5 years and probably have to stay like this for another 1.5 year more. I can't come over to you but let's be friends here if you want. I would also feel happy and appreciate your presence.

Nice 😊. Then maybe I'll have to make an account as listener so I can talk to you. Sadly member to member private chats are not available on this app. But that way we'll be able to talk here and you will be able to find out if you're comfortable with me or not.

Will you be comfortable with that?

That's the spirit 😄. I'll make a listener account then. And tell you the name.

And don't worry you'll be able to find more people here and on your campus as well.

Sending Hugs and warmth for you🥰❣️❣️

For sure, joining clubs would get you new friends.  What about volunteer work on campus? There has to be a need for volunteers. Do you ever study in the library? The library is a great place  to get exposure to other students.

I wouldn’t say making friends is impossible. Difficult yes but that doesn’t mean impossible. 

In the real world I never had any friends and lived a life where I was always by myself bc no one not even my own family accepts me. But I kept living my life and telling myself I’m gonna accept myself and always be my best friend. That way I don’t lose anything and am happy either way. If no one else wants to accept me and be friends with me then they lose bc that is their own loss. 

My advice to you is to try living this way and at the same time keep talking to different types of people. All colleges are full of different types of people. Eventually someone will be friends with you. 

Good luck ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ You can do it 👍👍

I don't think making new friends is impossible, I just think it's a lot easier when we are kids, before we're taught to hate those that are different from us.
