I tried introducing myself to people at my new University course but nobody seemed to talk or want to get to know me. What should I do now?

Social outreach isn't a once a done game; you have to keep making efforts to interact with people and get comfortable with a whole lot of failure.

Also, my experience has been that classes are not where to meet people. Try going social and special interest clubs on campus. A lot of people aren't in a social mood in class.

I don’t have any friends on my uni course I just feel the odd one out as everyone on my course are friends with each other and I’m just always on my own

[ProbablyClueless]

I feel yah. Just keep at it! All you can do is be personable and make an effort.

Wear a red hat that says USA on it. You will get some people instantly hating you, and some people liking you. Either way, people will want to get to know you. :)

You just focus on yourself, that’s what. Not everyone goes to university with the intent to make friends, I know I didn’t try on purpose. Let it happen naturally like if you’re sitting next to the same person all the time or doing a project.

Maybe you could try Bumble BFF, it's app to find friends near you and maybe you'll match with people that go to your university. Just be careful.

Building connections in a new environment can be challenging. Consider joining study groups or clubs related to your interests; this can provide a more relaxed setting to meet peers. Attending university events or volunteering for campus activities can also help you engage with others in a natural way. Remember, relationships take time to develop, so be patient and keep being yourself. Engaging in conversations about shared interests or coursework might open doors to new friendships. Stay open and approachable, and continue taking the initiative.

If you want to actually socialize, clubs and religious groups are much better than actual classes.

I'd say classes are better, clubs are boring and religions are all fake.

Nothing, you are there to study, not simply make friends.

Friends usually get made outside university, not in it.

Be proactive, don't be afraid to initiate conversations with people you meet. Keep trying.

Let it take longer. Everybody was a bit stressed perhaps.

It’s uni. No one cares about you. Suck it up.

[TheSpaceGnome]

You may need to make friends from people in other classes or off campus if no one in that class clicked with you.

Open your book and listen to your professor

[gatixek710]

Are you really 25-29?

[kaucky1]

Try not to stress on that

Don't push it. Go to class and learn.

[exitseven]

Give it time.
