people these days

Rant

I'm a first-year BTech student boy , and college has started.

On the first day of induction, I met a guy (let's call him Ram). We got along normally. Later, I met another guy, Somu. On the second day, two more people joined us, let's call theme raj and shiva we all started talking. I was happy that the group was at least starting

Around the same time, I met another boy who seemed very shy and introduced himself as an introvert. During lunch, I made sure he wasn't sitting alone. I was alone since others went to canteen together, and I genuinely tried to make him feel comfortable because I know how difficult it can be to open up.

After a couple of days, things changed.

The shy guy became much closer to Ram and the others. The four of them started sitting together, going to the canteen together, laughing together, and I slowly found myself left out

One incident that really stayed with me was when we were sitting in the auditorium. raj asked me to move so the others could sit together. It wasn't a huge argument or anything, but it made me think and in fact the other 3 were not saying a thing they just sat like I was the one who told these two to come here, in fact this was happening infront of theme

Another thing that hurt was that the shy guy would have long conversations with Ram, show him things he was working on, and be very enthusiastic with him. When I asked him about the same hobby, he'd answers me like some stranger and end the conversation quickly. It wasn't rude, but the difference in enthusiasm was obvious. like can't he show the gratitude at least

I kept trying to join conversations and spend time with them, but after a while I felt like I was the only one putting in the effort. Yesterday I decided to stop chasing them and just interact normally when it happened naturally for two to 3 days . then this raj guy tells me oh you came today I didn't noticed you and brags what they 4 did in the first class but I was literally sat next Bench to these 4 guys like is this raj is blind, but his face was telling all the answers like he know that I am not getting much with theme but he acts like nothing happen the problem is that now other 3 follow these raj guy that like these raj is manipulating these three which really annoyed me but they were comfartable like for context If the ram guy asks we go there then the raj tell no then these all people also says no like unity

The reason this is iam not jealous or any but I am a huge introvert and made first step up to talk to others and not wait others to talk to me and when I initiated the conversations and the interactions they just fell apart. reason I opened up is that so that I can have some true friends and can share thing but I guess it didn't turn well now if try to find new ones it just doses works as others already made groups now I really feel like lonely. the lonely felling even increased when the seniors were arranging an freshers party at some place these 4 were discussing very serious about the transportation all that and this was literally in front of me and they know like the others can hear but they really didn't care about me which made me really sad like I was just about To cry 😭 mean my inner heart , and in these group the shy guy house and ram house were same locality were I like but they still neglected me which felt really bad like

how people have different faces

so what's your opinion guys

I used chat gpt for my sentence formation all that ,sorry this is bit to long post
