(I'm new on this forum, so I keep having these long introductions. I'm sorry)
I moved away from home, to a new city and a new country. I am working towards a masters degree.
And I have no friends here.
I had many friends before, in school. When I travelled abroad, I made friends quite easily. I think I'm quite a nice person and that my social skills aren't that bad.
It's just here, in the city where I chose to live, that it's just not working out.
The university where I attend my classes is huge and it's incredibly hard to connect to people.
I listened to all the different advice (join clubs, find activities), and it's really good advice - but for me it didn't help.
I took classes in foreign languages and aerobics, I joined a book club, and an expats community, and a club at my university - and although I spent a few nice evenings, I only made a few acquaintances, no friendships emerged.
I'm really at my wits' end, I don't know what to do anymore. All this only managed to ruin my self-confidence, I feel boring, stupid and unworthy of love.
