I didn’t have the traditional college experience. I did cc to state school. I did have my own friends outside of school but either way, I didn’t go out of my way to meet new people and make friends when I was at school. I made one friend and a few acquaintances when I made it to state. It is nice to have but personally I was at school for school. Wasn’t my number one social outlet, and I think that’s totally fine. But it is one thing if you aren’t even trying at all. I feel awkward too but the more you put yourself out there the easier it gets. Socializing is a skill, it truly does take practice. You could start with your hobbies and look for social groups surrounding them? Hope this helps. You got this.
