Uni friends arn't my type...

Ive been at uni for 3 weeks now, and made loads of friends. Im quite popular in the halls aswell and seen as really outgoing because of my drunken antics, but the friends ive made dont really seem like real friends. Theres a group of 4 of us who are always together, and do everything together but whenever we're together I feel as if I have to be with them, not because I want to be with them - one of them is just a big head who I cant stand because he's constantly talking about himself, and theyre also kind of nocturnal bats which really pisses me of.

Ive made 2 other really good mates on the ground above me and they're really sound, but im scared that if I start hanging around with them im going to lose my other mates and I already think im starting to lose them two above me because im hanging around with them my other mates.

Its all so confusing and im sure your really confused aswell, but its so ****ing twatish.

howzabout hanging out with both groups? - hang out with some of them one night, and the upper floors the other? - you could sometimes ask the lower ground people if they want to hang with you and the guys on the upper floors - just shows you still care bout them :biggrin:

No the 2 groups are totally incompatible.

hang out at different times for a while longer....then see which one lasts. i'm sure you'll be more compatible with one or the other groups..choose one to become v. close too. and maybe occasionally go out with the others to keep the peace :smile:

How about you suggest a trip to the park to drink some white lightning? That might be more up your street.

I have this. I hang with mine all the time but sometimes I'll say "just popping to the other flat for a bit" and it's fine with my lot. We're allowed to have friends in other flats, you know. As long as you don't completely exclude yourself, it's fine.

Uni's only just begun. I don't hang around with anyone I hung around with in the first few months of uni anymore. Sounds like you know that the guys you hang out with right now may be good for a laugh, but won't be good mates in the long run. Just go and look for better friends elsewhere while everyone is still getting to know each other. I was in halls for two years and friends groups that form at the start of uni are nearlly always broken up in some way and new groups have formed by the end of the year.

So pick the ones you like best, eg. the ones on the floor above. I spent loads of time on the floor above last year cos I had had a couple of really good friends in that flat...
