Im sitting in a fairly large area, with my laptop computer. I'm alone..but there are a LOT of people here. I never have anyone to talk to on any of my breaks. I feel like such a fucking loser, always just sitting here by myself. I don't know anyone other than the people in my program...and they're all in class right now. Don't say "just meet people"..it's not that easy.

People will want to meet you less if you do that. You should just go to the local starbucks or something like that, they are great places to meet people.

Just Waiting Here Posted at 9:37 am on Feb. 20, 2008 Well, being on livewire won't help any :P.  Everyone in your program is in class?  That always sucks.  Well, like others said, you could always go with a club or something, and that way you'll meet more people, probably one's that have some similar interests if you join in a club or other activity.  That'll give you smething to talk about too, if you just have trouble starting up a conversation. Anyway, good luck with it!  When you get a chance, talk to someone new, I guess.  Whether it be in one of your classes, or something.  It's worth a shot.  Oh, and others have said, it doesn't make you a loser.  Like Shyloh said, most people will assume you're just doing work. And just because you don't always have someone to hang out with during a break or something doesn't mean you're a loser... personally, I like having breaks to myself, lol. visualcandyxo Posted at 9:36 am on Feb. 20, 2008 compliment/ask a question to someone that sits near you surely you have friends there from old schools that you can hang with sitting there with a laptop wont get your friends, it will put people off coming up to talk to you.. instead, try joining aby clubs your schooll has so you can find people with the same interests as you sorry but thats all i got.. good luck katyrose Posted at 9:32 am on Feb. 20, 2008 i know its not that easy im sorry Shyloh Posted at 9:29 am on Feb. 20, 2008 So? It's college, not high school. You're supposed to be independent. Just sit there and look busy, I bet people aren't assuming you're a loser like you think they are. And I doubt you're the only person by yourself. ENicole Posted at 9:27 am on Feb. 20, 2008 ...j/k, i argee w/ blueelectric, you should totally try to join some clubs/societies or something (if there are any) or try going to the towns "hotspots"!
