Loneliness and how to make friends at 22?

Hi everyone,

I’m really worried that I’ll never find a really close set of friends that I can hang out with whenever and have deep convos. Uni is ending and I only have one friend left who I’m not that close to and two which I fell out with but weren’t that close to either. I didn’t really make many friends in university though I did try my hardest to talk to people and meet them. My university experience was pretty underwhelming tbh. I have health problems too, that make socialising hard. I plan on moving out to another part of the city and starting afresh. How do you make new friends, esp in a whole new locality? I really need to find my people asap.

Go to events to meet new people, and be confident usual if you have good vibes people will approach you. But is better to find someone that makes you feel comfortable rather than just trying to fit in a group. See people you met can be lifelong friends or just a passer-by in life. All the best for you.

i moved to a new city last year and had to start from scratch. what i firstly did was move into a flat share with folks i'd get along with. then i networked at work and made a few connections i.e. to go to the pub every so often on fridays. and join meetup.com and go to events - i've met tonnes of people doing that - word of advise be proactive and get numbers; the point is to make friends and meet outside of the groups
