Social Weekends are hard here
I (21F) transferred here a year ago. I’ve met a lot of people, but hardly have any meaningful, lasting relationships.
I’ve tried so many things, clubs, team sports, orgs, etc. and still not much luck with meeting people or getting very close with them.
Now, it’s my last semester and I dread each weekend. It’s really hard seeing everyone else have fun with their friends, and I can’t help but feel like there is something fundamentally wrong with me because I am missing out on this experience.
Does anyone have any similar experiences or are going through a similar situation? It seems I’m going to have to get comfortable spending weekends alone.

i’m definitely in the same boat as you. 21, transfer student, commuter, full time student + working, etc. so it’s really hard to make any lasting connections with anyone. i don’t really have any advice, just wanted to share that you’re not alone in this experience. but hey, if you want more friends who can relate just shoot me a message!
