Go to a place to volunteer. Any place will do, a food bank, an animal shelter, something to do with a Church.

>You will feel really good about helping others

>Has a chance to socialize and maybe meet a QT

>Women LOVE men who help others

>People will look up to you but only if you don't brag about it

This.

Volunteering is a good place to improve social skills because for one, you're interacting with strangers regularly depending on what you do and two, it's a safe environment, you're volunteering, nobody is going to care about spilled spaghetti.

You're in college so I presume you have societies or frats? If so I'd highly recommend you'd join one. Although work + Uni is hell, Uni + societies is very doable, especially considering society events are always fun. Whether it's a gaming society or a sports club, either way it's good for social skills.

Above site is pretty good for social skill tips.

Do you have anxiety or anything like that? Are you able to do the above like just joining a society out of pure whim?

Actually, when I said college I meant community college.(sorry I should have specified). But I will be moving on to full uni at the end of the year assuming everything goes well. The trouble is, my High school experience was total shit. I was berrypicker as fuck, never really got invited to parties or anything, never got hookups or a gf. Eventually I just ended up checking out socially because there wasn't much in it for me. Now I worry when I go back to uni the same shit will happen. Especially since I'm years behind and I'll be a couple years older than everyone else. I want to have the fun college party experience and not be an outsider. Anyone else here /college/ too and actually manage to have a decent experience?

I was thinking of taking hiking. Walking to top of baby mountains with group of people and it should be like on 2 week basis or month I don't know. Anyone tried this?

Anyone have experience with meetup.com groups? I found an introverts club. Maybe I could meet a fellow robot stuck in a similar situation.

I don't think I have a problem communicating but I have a problem is after work I have nobody to be with. Pointless to call because I get this I'm sleeping response or change of plans. I don't get it because they say I'm a cool person to talk to, some conversion can take even hours with the other person responsive but when I want to do something with any of my "friends" I get rejected and I don't know why.This has been going on since forever.

Normies can be busy some times. Some of them are so ridiculously busy that work/school/stupid obligations is literally ALL THEY DO. And sadly, you just aren't high enough on their priority list. I've experienced the thing you are experiencing before. What worked for me back in High School when I at least had some friends was:

1. Making sure what you plan to do when you hang out sounds fun for them too. For example, "hey normie friend wanna sit around and play vidya" probably wouldn't work too well unless they are gamers, but even then gamers probably get bored of that eventually too. Now if it was something like "hey, let's go to a concert/strip club/get high and drunk at bar/(insert *cool* exciting thing here)" you would probably get better results.

2. Find some kind of club, sports, community event, etc… to go to and meet people at those, don't just depend on places that you are obligated to go to i.e. school, work to meet friends. You always have to leave the house in order to meet people.

3. Look online to meet people. Preferably ones in your area you can physically chill with.

Hope that helps anon.
