Uni/college sucks (both workwise and socially)

[Bl0odKn1ght]

Been a month of this semester and i dont go to class and do no work at home either. I find it extremely boring and have no real friends there. The most i can do is maybe have smalltalk with some people i had a project with last semester and that has only happened once in the few classes i've went to.

This does not compare at all to my good friends who i've known for years.. How tf do you even make new friends after highschool. Not that i need or want it, but im genuinly curious cuz you cant just fit into a group or get to know people out of nowhere.

Social stuff like that has previously just came to me naturally without me putting in any effort. Having to actively go seek friendship seems akward and wrong

Anyone else relate?


I still feel fine, but i dont think i've been this bored ever in my life

Well you better do something about your situation soon because it only gets worse afterwards.

Yea i get that, but it does not really bother me, since i talk to people outside so i wont feel depressed or bad. i guess i just want a way to make it feel less boring so i can actually manage to be there

How old are u btw? Sounds like ur talking from experience

I’m 22 its my last year.

I dont mind it so much either because online dating is doing like 90% of the work for me anyways. I can’t be asked to go out all the time and jester anyways.

You don’t go to college to make friends. You go to college to get a degree. My two cents.

I dont want to go out with people, i just need something to keep me entertained enough to make it worth it being there

The fact that its boring makes it harder to study and get a good gpa

Uni is so easy to make friends . Join a society . Make sure you live on campus , there's always accom that is generally more social that the others make sure you stay in one of those. Drinking is mandatory , go on night outs and don't stay inside , everyone is desperate for friends in uni.

Switch colleges, I'm in the same situation and it's also my last year, unless your grades are doing well

I think our uniculture is different, i dont think there are any societies and even if there are i want to talk to people i actually enjoy being with.

Living on campus costs money

I dont drink and usually hate parties

Do u wish switched?

My grades are mid, cuz i did basically no studying last semester. I also dont even want to study anything, but i feel like its necessary to get a job and make an ok living

 

[eBoy_]

I don't have any friends anymore

There is societies in every Uni , for literally every interest even fucking Taylor Swift and sudoku . Are you from the UK , I can't speak for outside of the UK but I would be very surprised if they didn't have societies. Yeah if you don't drink its a bit of an L at uni, then yeah your class mates or society mates are your best bet no need to move to accom in that regard.

Damn, what happened

That sounds like shit

For social purposes, I 100% wish I switched, for academic purposes, no. But if your grades are mid, then just switch so you can at least build a social life

This is exactly what I'm going through rn as well, it's just so fucking boring, I barely go in and when I do I might talk to one guy about some fuckass bullshit. Idk how when I first went everyone already seemed to be in a group or something.

Real on the fuckass bullshit part. Even if i manage to talk to someone or become their friend it wont really matter cuz its just sum generic shit being talked about and im afraid thats only going to get worse the older you get.

Compare this to friends i've known since my childhood and we know eachothers "secrets" and can discuss anything.

Im in programming, so the people who are not in groups are not my type of people

Which country/area do you live in? I can only imagine people from US having it much worse

I live in the UK, yeah I get you on the friends part, I miss school a lot because id see the same friends everyday and we knew each other for years, and now im just talking to some randoms, just feels like im forcing convo for the sake of it, but if I dont then its just lonely and depressing. I hate it, I initially had the idea when I started 5 months ago that in a few months ill probably find some nice friends, but its all the same, and I dont imagine it getting any better. Maybe I'm overcomplicating it, but I never understood when people say just walk up to people, most of them already seem to be have a 'group' of people, so idk. I feel like thats just how uni is, and after it gets even more shit.

 

[A_H0T_Wombat]

I can't even make friends lol tbh. Every racial group sticks with their own, people don't like the way I look

Pick one or the other. You cant “not drink, hate parties” and get shit grades and expect anyones tips to help you.

But your uni is kind of shit to your credit, or it isnt and you just arnt putting yourself in the position to be social
