POV: You came to college for a degree… and accidentally need to make friends too. 😭

Plot twist: everyone else is trying to figure it out too. 👀

Making friends doesn’t have to be a whole “new personality unlocked” situation.

Try:
👋 Sit next to someone new
💬 Say “hey” before class
🎉 Actually go to that campus event
🏃‍♀️ Join the club/team you keep stalking on Instagram
🍕 Ask someone to grab food
📱 Text first…even if your brain says “absolutely not”

And remember: awkward ≠ failure.

Sometimes the friendship of your life starts with a painfully awkward “sooo… what’s your major?” 😂

✨ Your people are here. Go find them.

Save this for your “I need friends but I refuse to admit it” era. 🫶

Drop a 👋 in the comments to welcome them (and remember: it’s always okay to ask for help).
