<p>See the counselor. Stop trying to have a social life. Spend your energy doing the academics- that’s the most important aspect of your college life. Many of us never had the social life most seem to associate with college. My few good friends were fellow female chemistry majors. Your best chances of being with like minded people is in your major classes. But don’t worry if you don’t click with any of the others. Some fields draw different types- those that are not as social. My friends did not do much socially- we were a bunch of girls who mainly studied. </p>
<p>Social ties do not come because you looked for them. Some of us are different enough from the mainstream we don’t fit into the ordinary mold- and wouldn’t want to if we could. Do figure some outside of class interest and pursue it for something nonacademic. Hopefully you are interested in your major. Focus on what you intend to do post graduation. Grad school? Job? Get to know professors and join any activities for your major. Look around you in your classes and figure out if any are in more than one class in your major. </p>
<p>At least if you focus on your academics you will finish college ahead. Do not let the pursuit of the fiction of a dream social life get in the way of that goal. At a large school there are tons of different people- most do not have the social life you fantasize about.</p>
<p>I could go on and on but your best bet is to talk to a campus counselor about your dissatisfaction. Then get on with your life- the reality is you are too concerned about a fantasy college life that just doesn’t exist.</p>
