How the fuck do you make friends? (lemmygrad.ml)

It was so easy to make friends during my undergrad because I lived in the dorms. But I lost half of them due to a messy situation with my ex girlfriend, and the other half doesn't live in town anymore.

Now I'm 22, working on my Master's, and I feel like I have no one.

At the risk of being a sour note in a thread of good advice: it gets worse, and worse, as you get older.

So when you act on the good advice in this thread, plan ahead as well: you're creating the conditions for meeting new people when you act on the advice here, but maintain those conditions for as long as you can as well. Don't let friendships 'naturally' wane. Keep them going.
