<p>The worst thing is everything already has really good friends i.e. best friends so it's like there's no chance I can make really good/close/best friends. </p>
<p>I'm also very geeky and well, out of tone with contemporary stuff, so sometimes I feel like I don't fit in. </p>
<p>Also, I don't dorm or live on campus, I commute which makes it harder to talk to people. </p>
<p>Thanks for the advice though. I'm definitely going to try to stop being shy.</p>
<p>Not living on campus makes a big difference... I guess you need to attend more parties...</p>
<p>I don't really have any new "close" friends that I've made yet myself, but there are a couple people on my floor who I hang out with more than others. There is also a girl from my high school who lives in my dorm, I'd say we're as close as best friends, but we're so busy with our separate lives that we only have time to see each other roughly once every two weeks-we don't share the same social circles.</p>
<p>I daresay I'll have an even wider pool of people to talk to after Rush next week.</p>
<p>It didn't take that long. I met my closest friends over a summer program where we lived in the same house, except for one of them, whom we met through a friend. One of them is my best friend from high school and everybody else is from the house. Although we live in different houses for the year, I'm still roommates with my best friend but they still come over to our dorm and we hang out.</p>
<p>I've been in my first semester for one month and i'm commuting to my college in NYC from Brooklyn. So far, i have met NO ONE, i mean, i've talked to people and made some acquaintances but for one month i haven't met anyone i consider a friend, bleeegh. I need to get drunk at a party or something, its just hard when you're commuting since you don't hear about many events other than what school has to offer, which are soooo corny "learn to make herbal eye masks" or "poutpourri with ease!"</p>
<p>a few days.</p>
<p>I actually tfered to where I am now, I tferred in the fall, found no one and lived with other tfers off campus, but like one person who liked me and a few others. I met him in this political group I joined This semester, I was there a few days, but took the semester off. One thing is that I'm not the typical guy at my school, as most guys are kinda guido like, or the kind of guys who were sideways flat brims, obnoxious Ts, and white shoes. But I am wondering will I have a real chance to make friends this summer and fall, when I'll be back? Summer only lasts a month there, but I'll see people during fall. I think I may not fit in well at my school either, which hurts. Will I make friends, as a junior this year? How will I find more? Will the people who liked me think I abandoned them by taking off after only a semester of being there? Will the freshmen I made kinda friends with be socially closed with their new cliques they form? Am i totally screwed? Should I transfer to a better school, where I'm not the only smart one (I beat my schools SAT mean by 230+ points), and looks (as guys) are not everything?</p>
<p>I have taken a long time too meet friends, im a little socially akward and i came too college with a long distance relationship w/ a strange story attached too it. Might I add half the campus knew this strange story(me + bf met thru college facebook). I made friends instantly from my Preorientation program, and im proud too say i still have them but friends have drifted in and out right now have a good group of 6 friends and a few aquaintances here and there</p>
<p>took me less than 2 weeks for sure</p>
<p>True that! You forgot to mention the one person that was picked up from an outside dorm =)</p>
<p>lol!!! ^HI!!!</p>
