transfer student loneliness

<p>first of all i am not a very socialize person. i am not afraid to talk to people, but if they dont reply i cant keep the conversation.
so i went high school in a different country and i attended community college here in united states. i spent 2 years in community college and i had some friends there, but the thing is i got different "friends" every semester and we dont talk any more after semester ends....
i transfered to this state university this fall. i joined many clubs and i did my best. but the thing is almost everyone has their high school friends here and they seem dont care about making new friends. i dont want to be too "pushy" or "creeper" or always stick with them.
i want to know how you guy think? how you guys deal with this loneliness? will it get better in the second year? i feel lonelier and lonelier day by day now....
by the way the school im going to is a commuter school and im one of the commuters.... but i basically stay at school from 9am to 6pm. most time by myself though....i tried to find someone to study together but they either have class or have to go home.....</p>

<p>A large part of what your going thru is due to the type of school you attend. At a commuter school many kids who attend grew up in the area and live at home. Consequently they are going to have sets of friends they’ve known for years and are going to be less interested in meeting new people than students who go away to college and may know few if any fellow students. </p>

<p>Joining clubs is one way to meet people, as you’ve already done. There may be clubs or organizations specifically for xfer students; you could look into that. Another way you might try is getting a job on campus; there are lots of places for a student to get a job and you’ll get a chance to know some fellow students/workers.</p>

<p>thanks for your suggestion!! i do feel better now!</p>
