PUH LEASE b my friend, i have a car, i love to yap & im incredibly loyal so your secrets are safe with me, im a girl (18) took a gap yr off college & financially independent (it’s hard for me to make friends w ppl who have big spending tendencies bc I have to save/unless ur down to pay for me occasionally too bahahah)
I know it’s cliche but Greek life really helped me meet people, you won’t match with everyone in the organization but you will find people who match you! Also join clubs and be active within them it can be hard at first but it really will help, don’t be scared to just go up and talk to randos 9/10 they will be happy to make conversation
Oh trust me you got this! I’m literally a sophomore now and still feel like a freshman because I haven’t found my crowd yet and all the ones I did meet ended up moving into apartments 🥲 Eventually your time will come just don’t let yourself overthink it too much or you’ll burn yourself out.
