hey everyone! i’m looking for advice on how to make new friends. All my friends have left me for no reason in my current college and i find it really hard to talk to new people. I’m not enjoying and liking my course or my teachers and being alone makes it so much worse that i’ve been crying every day and going home early and missing out on classes. Because or all this i’ve decided to move college and start fresh, new course and completely new people. School also didn’t go well for me around friendships and i really want this to be different and i want that nice group of girls that i’ve never had. Can anyone please give me some advice or tips to help

hey, first of all, you’re so brave for choosing a fresh start!! making friends in a new place isn’t easy, but it’s definitely doable. a few things that might help: say yes when people invite you to hang out, join clubs or groups that match your interests, and try sitting next to someone new in class and starting a conversation, parties and kickbacks are also a great way to meet new people. it’s completely normal to feel nervous at first, everyone’s figuring it out just like you :) they’re busy thinking about their own lives, not replaying whatever you said or did at the end of the day. so try not to be hard on yourself and just be your normal self. give it time, and it gets easier, just try to get out of your comfort zone, social media is a great start too to find people with the same interests as you. you’re going to find new friends soon!

@Kaylabear3 thank you i really appreciate this comment

hello, i know im abit late to this post but i have expedited the same exact things, im also currently in college and i had a group of friends who was in the same course as me, me and one of the girls in the group have been friends ever since i joined her school in year 10, and the rest we all became friends when college started, recently they have all just removed me and removed me from our group chat, the same girl who was my first friend in year 10 posted a tiktok clearly aiming it at me, and soon removed it when id seen it, however i haven’t done anything? If you ever need to talk about it im always up to listen…. as long as we know we haven’t done anything then we dont need to feel excluded, we dont need to message them because they never felt the need to message us about the issue, we are being mature and not giving them an argument that they crave. they’re all clearly jealous or scared of you, believe me the whole group would not have said they all dont like you, it will be the “group leader” and everyone else has just followed along. however, like i said we have both experienced the same despite us reacting differently about it and i know we will both be fine and friends will just come into our life when needed. If they leave then they was clearly just friends to teach us a lesson in life. you are an amazing individual and anyone would be proud to have you in their life ❣️❣️

@unknownuser2 thank you so much!!! i’m so sorry that happened to you!! yesterday the girl that ditched me messaged me wanting to start an arguing which was insanely petty and was just trying to play victim, i just ignored the messages and blocked her on everything. id normally be more sad about it however ive definitely matured and i realise now that she was never going to be a long term friend and it clearly wasn’t meant to be. the true colours she’s shown to me is not the type of friend i want anyway

@cutiepattoti i’m so glad you never reacted to her, all but on of the girls in my group removed me, and i’m pretty sure the one who didn’t remove me did it on purpose hoping i’d message her and argue since i do show my emotions. you have shown you’re the better person and i love that! i know it’s hard and you just want to ask why but honestly what’s the point? we can both be upset about it but dwelling about it won’t help the situation. i’m sure my friends kept me around as i’m getting distinctions in all my work and they always wanted my help, making me do their assignments and stuff and because i was gullible i did it. i’m proud of us both !!!
