Hi guys,
Recently have been struggling with uni loneliness and making strong friendships. I am a second year student (who did a foundation year so technically I'm in my third year) who is on a superrrr busy course where most of my time is taken up by coursework deadlines/being in lectures/catching up in the library. I keep in close contact with my best friends from back home and have noticed that all of them have made a little friend group at university and consistent best friends they hang out with and live with. Although I am super happy that they are living their best lives, I feel sad that my situation is not the same

When I was in halls in first year, I was quite unlucky with my flatmates and actually did not manage to make many friends in the accommodation I was staying in. This was the first issue because I know many people meet their best friends through first year accom but unfortunately I did not

I have also been to several societies and speak to many people frequently (I am quite extraverted so I enjoy doing this) and although I have definitely made a lot of friends, I feel as if I have not made many close ones like everyone else has.
often this doesnt bother me because as I said before, my course uses up most of my time but when I find myself alone I really feel lonely and upset that I never found my best friends at uni. I currently live with a friend I made in my foundation year but we aren't that close

I compare this to my best friend at her uni who is living with a best friend she met in her first year accom right now and idk I kinda have FOMO I guess....
Any advice for making really close friends, despite being in uni for a few years now? I feel like everyone has found their friend groups but me and it just makes me feel terrible lol.
