<p>I am on my 5th day of college. I hang out with my suitemates slot and join random people at lunch. I get to know people but then I never see them again! It seems like they only hag out with HS friends or suitemates. I am unfortunate that I don't have any friends from HS!</p>
<p>I also go to other people's rooms when they are there and chat but idk</p>
<p>I am nervous I won't know too many people!</p>
<p>This same thing happened to me, too. I moved in two days after everyone else did in my dorm, so the first few days were tough because I was only slowly getting to know everyone on my floor, and after only 2 days, they all somehow seemed really comfortable with each other.</p>
<p>The most important thing is that it has only been 5 days. You can’t possibly expect to have a huge number of friends in that time period. Just be proactive and approachable, and talk to more people in your suite/floor. After 5 weeks, I’ve found that the people I’m most comfortable with are the 40 people on my floor, and I already get along better with them than I do with some of my high school friends.</p>
<p>Have classes started yet? If you make a considerable effort, it will be relatively easy to make friends through classes, just by sitting together, talking, possibly forming study groups, etc. Also, join some clubs and organizations so that you can branch out and meet new people.</p>
<p>Otherwise, just relax. It hasn’t even been a week yet. I’m sure you’ll make many new friends!</p>
<p>It’s been 5 days. It took me half the year before I really found my first best friend and I had a ton of great friends by the end of the year. My advice would be to start getting involved with student orgs. You’ll definitely meet a lot of new people that way.</p>
<p>add them on facebook LOL</p>
<p>Put yourself out there. If you meet them and enjoy their company, take the lead and ask their number and make plans to do something later.</p>
<p>(The above advice also isn’t terrible dating advice)</p>
