I'm stuck in a friendship that I'm not happy with, what do I do?

Its kind of hard making friends in university. I had a hard time too because I didn't live in dorms. I would sometime make friends in lecture which is like a couple of mins before the teacher talks so the next time, I wouldn't see them. Or I was friend with them til the course ended, and I would never see them again. This frustrated me a lot because I actually enjoyed their friendship but I understand they had other friends too.

Finally, I made friends within my program, so much easier than outside my program. We would do homework and play cards together. I'm happy I found them because university is a lot more enjoyable with STABLE friends.

Outside of my program, I volunteer with a bunch of other students which is a great way to hang out with different people from different programs. We work with kids and when there's a lot times for us to talk together about school and life.

I would advise you to ditch this friend. You do realize that university is huge and a lot bigger than your high school. So the chances of you running into this girl is slim (unless she was in your class or program.. eep). Go join a club (its never too late, just email them), volunteer (great way to meet people and give back!), go to the gym ( people tend to feel more confident when they exercise), or get a job (work with customers).

Be cheerful and don't give up. Stop hanging around libraries and start chatting up with people in your program (trust me, these friends will last long because you guys will have multiple of courses in the upcoming years).
