<p>I'm having a really hard time with the social scene here...My roommates and I are really close but outside of that I have basically no friends.
I've joined several clubs and I go to meetings and put myself out there but I feel like I'm not really clicking with anyone.
My roommates are in the same boat but on weekends they tend to go home, and two of them already have boyfriends that they spend all their time with, so it's really easy for them. I'm too far from home and so on the weekend I often find myself alone.
What am I doing wrong? I'm really friendly and I talk to people before/after class and club meetings, but at the end of the day I still have no friends/people I want to make plans with. Any suggestions for making a close group of friends?</p>
<p>I feel the same way. I’ve been here for over a month now and I only made 2 close friends plus my roommate. But my roommate is a returning student so she already has her own group, and when my other 2 friends go home for the weekend I’m always alone since I don’t live close by 
I talk to people in classes all the time but they’re more like aquintances. I just feel like my school is cliquey. Kinda like high school sometimes. I joined a club, but I kinda lost interest in it since I don’t know anyone at all in it. It makes me feel awkward. I don’t know what you and I are doing wrong. Haha. One of my friends feels the same way as I do. Everyone says to give it time but it’s frustuating! Weekends are boring for me too. I did meet a guy from a different university close to mine. So sometimes we go out on dates during the week. I guess maybe just go to social events with your roommates? That’s how I met my 2 close friends. I hope things look up for you

<p>I am just wondering but are you a freshman? Because if you are, it takes some time to form close relationships. Once class sizes get smaller and you finalize what you will be studying, you will start seeing the same people all the time and it will be easier to form better friendships. Also just as AE girl said, I actually met my best friend through another close friend of mine so I would suggest hanging out with your close friends when they go out. It’s really nice that you are very close to your roommates. I would try to hang out with them the most you can because having a few good friends is better than nothing. I hope things improve for you!</p>
