Why is it hard to make friends in college?

Join something. I joined the campus radio station. Both at my CC and university. Theater is a good place to make friends. You can help out backstage with sets or props, in the box office.

What do you like to do?

My son has always been shy. He never has had many friends. But he loves to game. Strategy games, board agames, warhammer. He started a club in high school and found other at his university that game.

What is your interest and find others with the same interest

I have the same problem! Just find people with mutual interests. What are your favorite subjects? What is your major?

Just approach people and talk to them. U will kill that anxiety by doing that

if you just focus on excelling in your studies people will gravitate to a winner .. a whiney little btch that just crys about poor little me at the expense of excelling, who wants to get close to that ..

You must concentrate on completing your degree. Everything else can wait.
