Or how about contributing advice or conversation the OP rather than turning it all on how you have it soo bad.
There is no such thing as *ugly*.

AccountingBabe, there is literally no point trying to talk sense into her because she consistently rejects it and continuously puts herself down - if she wasn't so depressed about what she didn't have in comparison to others and used what she did have in comparison to others then she would be more easier to get along with and hence easier to friend.
Too pessimistic indeed

Wow it couldn't be more obvious that both of you are ganging up. I wouldn't say either of you are worldly people - based on the fact that you can't comprehend basic emotion.
Just two idiots coming together to make a dull, unreasonable opinion. But I respect your wrong opinion.

Cool. She needs to realise that looks aren't everything, and if takes two people or a million people to say that then so be it, it is obvious that there is an underline connection between her pessimism and inability to make friends. Nobody wants to friend somebody who hates life and always has a bad outlook on life. They want to friend ambitious, kind and honest people.
I was only making that statement because she needs to stop focusing on the bad and look at the good, like I have in my life through getting an internship, good AS results and a certain uniqueness to my character - I don't see why we're ganging up on her for the wrong reasons, we are just trying to get her to change her mentality because in the real world it all doesn't come down to 1 characteristic
Start talking to people on your course by sitting next to people during lectures making small talk. Sign up for societies, you're bound to meet people on these. Go to a social studying area at your uni (not the library).
Many ways to meet people. I too was in the same position until I started getting out of my shell, you can't expect people to come to you just sitting there.
I suggest you start by signing up for a society or two, that's the best and easiest way to meet people.

I was enquiring about some events and me being stupid, I thought that a house party was a party that only played house music, not being exclusive to halls. Naturally, I was laughed at for being an idiot. Pinkfloydfacepalm
See if you can get a spot in one of the accommodation places of QMUL; sometimes the best thing to do if you're struggling to make friends is to just force yourself into the situation as often as possible; being put in living quarters with other people will force you to talk to them at some point, and you'll get to know them, and their friends better.

try sports clubs maybe or people on your course
All the sports clubs require me to train for national championships which mean I have to go all over the UK for them. But my uni will get improved sports facilities by the start of next year so maybe I'll see about that.
People on my course are either playing Jetpack on their mobiles, listening to music or talking to their peers in their established groups. I'm always thinking that interrupting the former two would be rude?

I have family commitments so I can't be getting uni accommodation.

I did join the Econ society. Absolutely horrible. All their events had to do with drinking alcohol, lots of it. I guess I could join the ULU Harry Potter Society, that will be a start.
I do make small talk but those people don't want to get to know me beyond that.
At school, it was so much easier to socialise. Anywhere I go, even if I didn't want to, I always made friends. My luck apparently ran out when I started to go to uni.
Erm, I'm allowed to say what I like in my posts, and I'm not asking anybody to pity me. If the thread gets derailed over me, it's not my fault.
And whether she understands or not DEFINITELY detracts from her point, because unless you're as ugly as me, you cannot relate or ever, in your dizziest daydreams, understand what my life is like.
At least I can spell

Also stop giving that attention seeker Maid Marin any advice. It's probably a troll and she has absolitely derailed this thread.
