It’s not unusual. But it’s not “normal” in the sense of acceptable human condition to go through a life stage without making a single friend.

I spent most of the year keeping to myself after transferring to a new campus, but it started feeling kinda sad and boring so i've already started to make new friends on campus, you can even meet them through yikyak. Life is too short to not connect with others the best you can

it’s okay op i definitely have too:) if you want friends go for it!! but if you’re happy on your own, it’s completely fine to live that way. i will say, having a couple of close friends has really helped me work through some tough muck. at the very least having a wider community has helped my brain feel less echo chambery. that’s just my experience obv haha- good luck!
