being gay in freshers

so basically I just came out before uni (I'm a girl ) and I found it a really lonely time. I didn't know anyone gay at school and when I finally came out I still didn't know anyone. My mum didn't want me to go to a local LGBTQ in case I " changed my mind' and of course I never met anyone just in my small town at home. I tried to join things like tinder, tumblr and HER but every girl I thought was nice was 100+ miles away.

So when I came to uni I was kind of hoping to meet more people, but every time I go out, I just see straight couples? I am openly gay now and most of my flat mates know this however I haven't seen anyone even remotely butch or obviously gay. I know statistically there must be some girls that are either BI or gay however It's really starting to frustrate me, I even just got with a guy out of desperation as I just felt so alone whilst everyone else was getting off with guys. I've joined the LGBTQ group but my friend says that it's mostly guys that go to that. So I'm just wondering how I'm ever going to meet any girls when my uni is so full of straight people???

There will be gay and bi women. Honestly, try your LGBT group. That's all I can say. I don't have first hand experience but my oldest friend went to one and met another girl I knew who happened to be a fresher in her first week of university. They got married a few weeks ago. It worked for them. They met each other at an LGBT club night. It was just meant to be your usual one night stand but obviously developed into a real relationship. They've been together for 5 years.

I guess I'll just have to persist with the LGTBQ group, congrats to your friends though

Either way, I say just make friends with other women and see how it goes. I know plenty of women that like women. It shouldn't be too hard to find them. It may be the crowd I hang out with but I can't think of many completely straight women. As for how to go about it? I'm sure you could share your predicament with them and ask how to deal with getting used to finding women to do whatever you want to do with them, what to do and the like. I'm sure they'll be sympathetic.

Which university do you go to? I was just thinking a city would be a better place to meet other gay people.
