I’m in a particular situation right now. I received last week my roomates informations. I ended up in a Triple dorm room, which was surprising but also exciting. The thing is I sent a group email to both of them the next day. I’m very social so I love to meet new people, but I don’t know them so I stayed neutral ( you know like hey how are you ? ect)
However I still have no answer or anything. Those two girls are a mystery to me, they have no social network account whatsoever, so I only know their names and email addresses.
I’m kind of worried, I know I can be really annoying so now I’m unsure if my email wasn’t too friendly
Don’t read too much into it. Everyone is stressed in a different way about starting college and communicating with new roommate may not be a priority. They may have social media accounts you don’t know about. Some of D’s friends go by first and middle on FB and other so don’t put too much emphasis on that either. With 3 weeks left they may still be on vacation mode
Take it from someone who’s also over-friendly: don’t sweat it too much. Sometimes people are just bad at replying to things, and anyway, it’s okay if you’re not friends with your roommates.
You’re right! Thank you for replying so fast, not like my roommates haha ( I’m just jokking Xp )
Yeah I’m not forced to be friend with them, but as a foreigner I would like to actually make some friends.
I’m friendly but it seems a lot of people are kind of scared of me because I sometime have trouble understanding what people are saying. Even thought I love meeting new people and discovering their hobbies
Many reasons for no reply: Could be on vacation, getting wisdom teeth out before school starts, message went in Junk or Clutter folder… You made a pleasant overture, so just try to relax and you’ll hear from them (or meet them) soon.
Two things: as others have said, they may not check their emails. Second: their social media may not be under their real names- ie they may be using their first and middle names or something like that.
Be calm. They’re probably just enjoying the last few weeks of summer.
Is the email address the email address the school assign to students or personal email? If it’s a school email it’s possible they aren’t checking it yet. My daughter moved in yesterday and she didn’t check her GA State email until Monday.
Considering they don’t have some form of social media and you had to reach them by email, I wouldn’t be surprised or worried why they didn’t reply. Besides, everyone’s gonna be a little nervous or overwhelmed the first few weeks of college. Its a new place with new people in everyones view so no worries! Im sure you’ll get your college experience.
You’ll probably be fine! They probably just overlooked the email in the busyness of summer. I know I didn’t start checking my school email until late in the game because it was overwhelmed with a billion emails about orientation. Also I was in the another country at the time so I didn’t respond to FB messages. More likely than not, they are just enjoying the rest of the summer and will be happy to meet you when school starts. If not, there are plenty of other friends to make in college that are not your roommates
