Here is how I became kinda lonely in university

:story: Life Stories

So in highschool I was highly social and had lots of friends, we would hangout once a week and do all sorts of things…we were in an economically developed first world country, anyway after high school we all had to travel back to our home country for university because the university fees were too expensive in the country that we lived in. Our home country is kinda of a third world country..I lived my whole life in the other country, living in my home country gave me a culture shock so socializing was kinda hard at first but that’s not the big problem,

everyone I would talk to had nothing in common with me, how the fuck do you talk with someone you have nothing in common with? I used be able to do that in the past but I lost that skill when I got to my home country. also a lot of them just wanted to use me so that they cheat with me in the exams, I ended up making 2 friends but our schedules are different from each other so I barely meet them, none of the people I called “friends” agreed to hangout with me..also people are different from me there, maybe because I lived in a different country but there is something different about them

At the end of term I think I made more friends but I had to not attend a university term which caused me to have a different schedule than them and not see them for like 3 more months and that caused disconnection

Anyway thanks to my brother he introduced me to his friends but I only meet them when we hangout (we hangout once a month because hanging out here is expensive) but I don’t feel bonded with them I still enjoy my time with them though and socialize with them when we hangout

My socialization is with my family members, and my close friends that I play video games with..I have very little socialization in university, I have tried making more friends here but to be honest I don’t think people are looking for more friends in the third year of university they make friends in the first one lol

Am I bothered by this? Yes
