Does anyone else pretend to have phone conversations?

I sit in my dorm room sometimes all day (don't have a room mate) and I get conscious that the other suitemates think I'm weird, so I pretend to have phone conversations. I don't know why I do it. I guess I don't have a lot of people i can hang out with (maybe like 2) but they are off doing things. I have joined activities but I still have trouble finding people to have dinner with. Im a junior so I guess people have found their friends already. This is kind of sad, isn't it? I am nice, maybe overly nice but the other girls don't seem to be interested in forming friendships. To not spend the entire week in my dorm I wander the campus and hang out at the library and coffee shop. I'm not really a party person and I don't know how to strike up a conversation out of the blue with people. Sometimes it's very frustrating because I'm suppose to be having the time of my life. That's what people say about college anyway. I could get a roomate my senior year but I was hoping to be living in an apartment with some friends. That was the plan before I entered college at least. My other friends live in sorority houses and don't want to move out and I don't want to join.

What do you make of this? I don't even know what my question is actually. Maybe advice on how to kill time? or make new friends? I would volunteer but I don't have a car and campus is now too close to town.

  1. dont hide from people..

    just go out and be yourself dont worry about what you look like who cares your human. they will get over it

    college is a time for new beginnings.. nobody knows what u were like in high school... middle school... or elementary school... u have a new fresh slate so take advantage of it and go out and meet people. pretending to have phone convos with nobody is just trying to make urself believe it. when the truth of the matter is that all u need to do is get involved. join clubs go to sports games sign up for a study group... whatever u need to do to socialize. i really feel bad for u in this situation and hope u find some friends. dont give up.


  2. Find a hobby, make friends, go out, don't trap yourself inside all day.. anyone would go insane in that situation.


  3. haha that is awesome.  you just made my night

  4. haha i love you

  5. you seem SUPER insecure.. think of it another way - do you really think people are sitting there thinking what YOU are doing? :) they have lives of their own hun, just live yours
