It’s definitely not over! Making friends can take time, and it’s completely normal to feel that way, especially after two years. Here are a few suggestions to help you connect with your classmates:
Join Groups or Clubs: Look for any extracurricular activities, clubs, or study groups that align with your interests. This can be a great way to meet people outside of the usual class setting.
Engage in Class: Try to participate more during discussions or group work. This can help you get noticed and might encourage others to reach out to you.
Start Small Conversations: Don’t be afraid to initiate small talk with classmates before or after class. It could be as simple as asking about an assignment or sharing thoughts on a lecture.
Study Together: Invite classmates to form a study group. It’s a great way to collaborate on coursework and build connections.
Attend Social Events: If your school offers any social events or gatherings, try to attend. These are often more relaxed environments to meet new people.
Be Open and Approachable: Sometimes, body language can influence how others perceive you. Smile, make eye contact, and show that you’re open to talking.
Remember, building friendships takes time and effort, but it’s always possible! Keep putting yourself out there, and you may be surprised by who you connect with.
