Loneliness

I really hate UVA. I’ve made 0 friends and literally no one talks to me. Not in classes, not in the dinning hall (no one approaches me to sit with me since I eat alone), and no one in my suite asks me to hangout. They’re so cliquey and there are 6 of them that are close and all talk. My roommate already has friends and a partner. I envy him because of it. It also doesn’t help that I’m gay, so the guys in general here don’t want to be friends with me. I just hate the people here because they’re so rude and stuck up. I haven’t joined any clubs (because why bother when no one is going to talk to me?). I didn’t rush either because I’m gay and so again, I wouldn’t fit in with those guys as I don’t really like “guy” things. I could rush for an academic frat, but knowing the people here, I wouldn’t make any friends there either. I just hate this place so much and all I do is sit in my dorm alone and cry. Since I have no friends here, I’ve now worked out my schedule so I can go home on Thursdays because it’s so unbearable seeing everyone around me here in their dumb, cliquey groups of friends. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you’re okay with being alone.

I’m sorry you are having a bad experience at UVA. This is not the fault of UVA though. I strongly encourage you to seek the help of a mental health professional. We here at CC are not qualified to give you the support you need, so for that reason, I am closing.
