No friends in oxford uni anymore, so isolated
What's normal for an oxford fresher's day to be like? People have really solidified their friendship groups in Hilary and have somehow decided to kick me out of all of them, so I am spending all my time alone and can't even go our or clubbing or have fun as I'd be alone, and it's not really safe or fun. My average day has now been reduced to this:
lecutres
eat lunch in college alone
library
eat dinner in college alone
bed
whereas last term it would be
lectures
go out for lunch with friends
go have some fun
library with friends
watch the sunset with friends
go shopping and cook dinner with friends
some kind of sports/club or something with friends
drink in someone's room/clubbing/something like watching a movie
have a sleepover in someone's room/sleep in my own room
I feel so upset, worthless, lonely and have tried everything to make new friends but no one is receptive. I have worked so hard to get here and into oxford and am having the worst time this term. its awful and I feel like crying all the time.

Unless there is a factual coincidence, this appears to be the second or perhaps the third thread that you have posted on the same subject. If that's the case, please see the advice suggested by various people on your other thread(s). That advice includes joining societies, taking up new activities, and contacting your college's welfare staff.
I hope that things improve for you. The aphorism that friendship is a vine is accurate. Vines have to be tended.
Another idea: if there are two or three people posting threads here about difficulty making friends at Oxford, why not message one of the other posters and suggest meeting for coffee at somewhere like the Arts Cafe in Bonn Square, or Brown's or the Columbian coffee place in the Covered Market?
