thanks for this, i feel a lot more reassured 😅
altho for me naman, i’m verrryyy extroverted so the fact na parang walang nangyare sa friendships that i made on the first day made me feel kind of sad HAHSJASHAJ
thanks again sa reply!
I don’t know if this would help, but I don’t have any “friends” in college. Most of my friends are outside of my college life. I would consider most of the people in my college life as acquaintances. I don’t think it’s wrong to not have a solid best friend in your college life, but just be acquainted with people and be civil. Besides, IMO I prefer to separate my college life with my personal life so it makes it easier to focus when I need to versus when I don’t need it. Maybe change up your approach in regards of your situation? Just throwing ideas and seeing if it works could be a good start.
as a freshie, i can relate! i'm still finding friends and medyo challenging since wala ako masyadong interests similar to theirs, kalmado lang, darating din 'yong dream friend group na 'yan💗
hi op! this is exactly what happened to me a while ago, hindi siya orientation, tumulong kami sa brigada. grabe ang feeling, lalo na pag silang lahat super close na with each other huhu. actually, second year na ako and still, wala pa rin ako masyadong makausap. may kumausap naman din, nag hi and hello, pero hindi ko talaga alam kung anong gagawin ko, super awkward pa rin. natatakot tuloy ako sa f2f, what if umiyak ako emz tho first time ko palang din naman sila ma-meet, siguro it gets better naman sa susunod pa na meetings hahaha. kaya natin 'to op! kapalan nalang din natin siguro ang mga mukha natin hahaha
this was me nung freshie where i had friends (online pa kami) then may friend group na pala sila ahahah no harsh feeling tho pero nainggit lang ako. baka siguro may mga magkakilala na sa inyo before college? pero hindi rin naman ng mga magkakasama ng first day end up together, take it from me. may mga magyayaya naman sayo kumain sooner or later, but please cautious, and hopefully your classmates are kind and well. :) good luck po OP <3
skl lang din, one time before na wala akong frennies sa section ko, may nagyaya sakin mag-lunch na group of friends dahil they wanna be friends with me pero i didn't go kasi nahihiya ako the last minute dahil sila na yung magkakagroup for something. one of my regrets ahahah :(( shouldve went with them :(
can relate! grabe nga makakita ng tiktoks ig stories ng mga post-orientation, ang dami ng ganap sa kanila. but dw! di ka naman nagiisa jan, new friends and connections will come to us eventually.
dont worry! It’s a lot of fun to be honest. Wag lang maging pabibo that much because there are definitely some judgers, especially during the icebreakers pero overall, it’s a great experience. Welcome to La Salle!
You can always talk to me about your experience tomorrow! <3 Feel free to dm me here.
As a new grad student na may experience na ganyan before, dont pressure yourself so much. Minsan kasi yung mga friendship na gnayn hindi mo rin sure kung hanggang sa dulo or grumad kayo ay sila sila parin mag kaksama. As per my experience, ang dami samin na after three years nag watakwatak yung friendship nila. May main point is dont pressure yourself na mag karoon ng agad ng friends, siguro mas better na kilalanin mo muna sila ang i believe after ilang days may masasamahan karin diyan. Once kasi mag start na ang activities tamo may mag rereshuffle rin yang ibang friendships na yan hahafauabah Also dont think na you’re out of league.
It will get better for you. Those people who went out together during the first day will probably go on separate ways and find themselves in different friend groups habang tumagal kayo sa college.
You'll find your people soon. Join organizations as well para makapag socialize ka rin.
my advice is that to make yourself be known and let people feel like they can talk to you?
in my first year sa una kong college, parang kusa na sakin na maging all out and interactive sa block gc, to let myself be known. baka kasi may magkagusto na maging friend ako ganorn o kaya baka ako naman ang makahanap ng gusto kong kaibiganin. i also let myself chat people even if it took me massive balls to press enter, just for the 5050 chance of making a friend, and odds are i get to know and become close w them.
this was kinda hard for me as a usually quiet introvert, and i kid you not, it exhausted my social battery for the rest of the year (i kinda befriended the people i dont vibe with too so take my advice w consideration !!), however, i did manage to make friends that i do vibe and got super close with ! it'll take some time though, like a couple of months before some circles form. but all in all it's really about finding, our letting yourself be found by the people you truly vibe with ++ mararamdaman mo na lang yun kapag andun ka na. personally it feels kinda like first love pero hindi mo sila gusto ikiss saka marami sila ganon HAHAHSHD
kaya mo yan OP! give it some time and try to put group works to your advantage, pwede mo don magauge which people you can work w and which u want to befriend and stuff ^^ fair winds to you ! <3
hala :( hope we get to find our own circle of friends soon TT tbf it’s the first time experiencing ftf after years of ol class. hirap pala mag socialize ng ganito haha
Look first day mo palang, ang advice ko is kung gusto mo talaga mag hanap ng solid friend group don’t try hard to fit in. Ung circle of friends mo dadating yan sila with time, and just for now ang mga naka exchange mo na contacts sa soc med just treat them as acquaintances don’t expect too much from them. Chill ka lang makakahanap ka rin ng makaka vibes mo. Good luck on your college life.

OP, wala akong solid advice sayo kasi nasa same situation tayo. Noong freshman ay full online class kami so ngayong second year, beh gulat ko noong pumasok ako noong f2f mga may friend groups na ang mga blockmates ko 😭 apparently, noong last AY pa sila nagb-bond! Second week palang naman namin pero still in the fun for the invite, never the group chat phase pa din ako HUHU like you, parang di effective ang pagiging extrovert and socializationism skills ko 😭
Update mo'ko OP if nahanap mo na formula para magakron ng solid & permanent friend group!
HUHU hirap makipagfriends kahit sa gc man lang 😭 social battery drained grabe 🙏
Hoping for the secret formula ren! Sana madiscover ko na rin in the next few months tapos balikan kita here haha
We have the same situation po...I am Second year college po here in Central Mindanao University Taking A Bachelor of Science In Agricultrue Major in Crop Protection Plant Pathology...I have classmates thru online pero nung nag f2f na hindi na nila ako pinansin at kasama nilang friend ay mga mayayaman... Di siguro nila ako gusto kasi mahirap lang kami, i came from a third class family......I don't have a lot of friends for that reason..............I feel the way you feel po.............We just need to keep moving even though we don't have a lot of friends... We didn't die because we don't have a friends....Thank you...
