social butterfly!? I'm going to be going to college for the first time next year. Just graduated high school this year. I'm excited that I'll get to meet new people, but I'm kind of nervous as well. I don't have much of a problem talking to new people, but I do have issues with making 'friends.' I can't step out of my comfort zone enough to pursue a friendly relationship with someone. I mean, I'll be able to talk to someone while in class, but I find it hard to ask them (especially when we've known each other for only a couple classes) if they want to go out for coffee or lunch or whatever. So basically, I find it easier to have aquaintances than friends. Know what I mean? What are some tips on making this easier? Also, how can I judge whether people would be worth spending time with? I tend to put in too much effort being friends with the wrong people and not enough effort in spending time with the right people. I guess I'm a bad judge of character. Long story short I just need tips on making friends in college. :P The program I'm in is a full time program. I have 5 (4 hour long) art classes (one every day) in which most of the people in all 5 will be the same. The class sizes will be small in this one. 30 so it will be easier to get to know people.
