<p>I'm going to be a freshman and I didn't have many friends in high school, I'm just shy I guess that's why. I want to go to a lot of parties to help me loosen up and not be so shy and all that but I don't know how to get invited to them when I don't know anyone. I'm going to the community college 5 mins from the university so I can't really get invited when class starts or anything. I live by the university, actually I live behind 2 frat houses so you think there would be parties there, but not yet. I'm not ugly or anything haha so I'm just wondering how to get invited to parties! My roommates are all from europe so they are just friends with all the international people and are just speaking french so I don't really want to hang out with them haha. Tonight is the saturday before school starts so shouldn't there be a lot of parties? I really want to go to one tonight.</p>
<p>Oh I know how you feel bro however it is quite simple become very close to around ten people who are fun to be around and eventually the parties will come your way trust me and after a few parties and you don’t tarnish your image you will be on the list with the group you party with. Sorry about the punctuation I had to write this fast</p>
<p>Yeah I hope so. Everyone says it’s easier for girls to get invited but I’m a girl and so far no invites!</p>
<p>honestly, go scout around campus and see if you find an open-door party. It depends on the type of school you go to though… mine only had like 2 parties on opening weekend and they were shut down pretty fast.</p>
<p>Oh yeah and just like… talk to everybody. basically :)</p>
<p>It’s the number 9 party school in the country…where are all the parties! I would just go walk around but I’m not really sure where to walk.</p>
<p>Yes very important talk to everyone</p>
<p>If I do just go walk around what time should I do it? It’s like 9:30 now so too early I’m guessing.</p>
<p>well, number 1- never go out alone, especially as a girl. always have a buddy for the night so you know you’ll get home safe.<br>
it really does depend on the school for as to whether there will be open door parties. and the chances of there being one before school starts aren’t that great. At my school, if you’re a girl, you can pretty much get into anywhere free.
oh and don’t go out till 10:30-11pm. and I second what everyone else said- just find a group of people who you feel comfortable with, and the parties will come to you :)</p>
<p>Well I don’t really know anyone yet so I have to walk alone. But I think i’ll be okay. So you think next weekend since school will have started there will be more parties?</p>
<p>Talk to the people in your floor or building. Get to know people from class and in other residential halls.</p>
<p>Of course, the best way for parties…is to get in a fraternity. BUT, don’t expect every fraternities to have booze or stuff. Many frat houses take underage drinking seriously, and won’t serve alcohol to you unless you are 21…at least the responsible houses do.</p>
<p>I’m a girl so no frats haha, and too late to join sororities.</p>
<p>eh I wouldn’t recommend even going to a party alone. esp if you’re a freshman. there are way too many creepy people out there.<br>
but yeah opening weekend there should be a bunch.</p>
<p>You really need to find at least one person on your floor to party with. Small chat with about anyone will usually lead to going out especially during the first 2 weeks. If you go to a number 9 party school the fraternities have to be having parties all of welcome week/move in. If you really can’t find someone now, before classes start, you’ll definitely find someone in one of your classes at the least. Talk to the girl you sit next to or someone you notice you have several classes with. Don’t be as shy but being shy should not inhibit you from any social activities, especially if you are eager to go out and have fun.</p>
<p>Take your roommate out? Someone from your hall? Just like, walk down the hall and knock on a door say “Hey, just want to meet some people from the hall” if someone seems receptive be like, “Wanna go party-scouting? I’m bored.” And then just walk around the residence halls or frat houses keeping an ear out.</p>
<p>I just don’t really know how to strike up conversations with strangers. Complimenting their outfit or whatever only goes so far. And if I just ask them to hang out or whatever I feel like i’m annoying them.</p>
<p>Well, then you might have to just wait until more organic friendships develop through classes and such.</p>
<p>Is there pretty much parties every day once school starts, or just on weekends? I know it depends on the school but this is a big party school so I thought maybe they would be more common.</p>
<p>put on something sexy, or that would make a guy wanna frisk ya and start having some fun by flirting with everyone. The rest is very straight forward</p>
<p>Why would a girl WANT some random guy to “frisk” them?</p>
