Trying to make friends

Hey everyone!

I'm in college second yr. Tryna make new friends now. I put all my eggs in one basket and didn't socialise enough in first year. Now I'm more or less alone 🫠🫠

But! I do know I could do it with the right guidance. People say I'm funny, I have a happy cherry personality, and I love making ppl laugh.

However when i realised my mistake, I think I came off as too desparate which chases ppl away a lil bit :')

I've come to this realisation that I treat every situation like I need the other person for me to function, rather than them enjoying my company (if that sentiment makes sense)

How can I love myself more and not be as desparate to make friends, so ppl will naturally gravitate towards meh???

Am I (20F) being overshadowed by my charismatic best friend, or am I just insecure? Need an unbiased reality check.

​

I (20F) need some grounded, unbiased perspective on a dynamic with my best friend (20F) of one year. She is genuinely smart, incredibly pretty, and highly charismatic. She tells me she loves me, and in many ways, she’s a great friend. But a highly repetitive pattern has cropped up over the past year, and it’s destroying my self-esteem.

Whenever I make a new connection or show interest in a new friend, she naturally gets folded into the dynamic because we hang out so much. She will follow them on Instagram, start talking to them, and very quickly, they talk to \*her\* way more than they talk to me. This never happens the other way around; when I hang out with her friends, I am invisible.

Here are a few specific examples that have messed with my head:

*Example 1* :I was chilling with a guy friend and mentioned I might be romantically interested in him. My best friend joined us, though she told me privately she thought he was "weird and boring." By the second hangout, they were texting on WhatsApp/Instagram. The vibe completely shifted—he started ignoring me, exclusively focused on her, and eventually ghosted me entirely. Even though she knew it hurt me, she kept talking to him on the side and even reached out to him for a favor later.

Example 2: There was another guy whose "guts she hated" for eight months straight. I finally decided to approach him just to socialize, and she naturally started talking to him too. I only talk to him in person, but I just found out they have been talking daily on Instagram and phone calls. He actually ended up confessing to her. She turned him down because she "thinks he's ass," but they are \*still\* actively talking and texting. Why talk to someone 24/7 if you claim to despise them?

*Example 3:* Because I put all my eggs in one basket with her, I didn’t socialize enough early on and don't have other close college friends. To be completely clear: *I have absolutely no problem with her making or having friends outside of our friendship.* That is literally what college is for. The issue is that she will randomly disappear for long hours with no explanation. Because I haven't been able to establish my own circle yet, I’m left sitting alone, feeling absolutely horrible and isolated.

*Example 4:* When I do try to join her when she hangs out with her other friends, the vibe is bizarre. It’s a group of tech guys, and the dynamic is oddly intimate and infantilizing. The entire focus is always on her—they make comments about her looks, play with her hair, yank off her scrunchies, and one guy was literally feeding her Pocky sticks while we walked. One of them even texted \*me\* asking for photos of her to make custom stickers.

Whenever I am around her friends, I intentionally try not to overshadow the conversation. I'm told I'm quite funny and good at making people laugh, but I hold back to maintain a balance since they are *her* friends. But because of this, I feel like a ghost.

*The Current Dilemma:*

I am currently interning at a student startup. There was an open sales position, and when I mentioned it, she wanted it. I referred her to my superior, and she has an interview soon. She’s amazing, so she’ll definitely get it. But given our history, I am suddenly terrified. I’m not in sales, but project allocations here are very flexible. Am I digging my own grave here? Am I going to be bypassed and replaced in my professional life now, too?

I feel insanely guilty for even thinking like this. I know she cares about me, and if I could go back in time, I’d still choose to be her friend. But it feels like if people overwhelmingly choose her over me, there must be something inherently wrong or unwanted within me. My other friends say there isn't, but the data points to me being invisible.

How do I navigate this friendship, find my own people, and handle the upcoming internship situation without losing my mind?

Another gripe is how do I make friends dude T\_T

Could the problem lie with me too? I just can't seme to have friends that stick. I can't find a group to hangout with. Should I work on my self maybe my looks? Im pretty confident but maybe I need the confidence boost from my looks too and so ppl perceive me better 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

*TL;DR:*

My highly charismatic best friend unintentionally eclipses me. Every time I make a new friend, they end up talking exclusively to her (even if she claims to dislike them). While I want her to have other friends, she often vanishes for hours without a word, leaving me isolated in college. Now, I’ve referred her for a sales job at my current internship, and I’m terrified she’s going to overshadow and replace me professionally, too. Am I crazy, or is this dynamic toxic?

I rewrote this using gemini cuz it was almost 1200 words and y'all ain't reading that lmao

How to increase Cgpa idk what I'm doing

Going to 2nd yr and my sem 1 gpa was 8.5. i admittedly studied laxedly but still got an okay gpa. It's not a 9, so I tried my best for sem 2. I put in a shitton of effort, but my grades and marks absolutely do not reflect that. Half the time i could not understand what I was studying and the other half I didn't have enough practice for whatever I could understand. I could understand next to nothing in classes. Somehow ppl around me are not struggling like i am. I used to be a topper idk whete im going wrong. Like what do I do now? My gpa might go lower. After first yr ik there is much much less chance to salvage and i don't have much time till placement to pull it up to a 9. Im working on some stuff in this summer. Can someone pls tell me how I can utilise this summer to study the subs coming next sem so I can have an advantage? Or just any guidance dude honestly, any study strategies. Seeing the job market and my dearth of connections I need to pull through in placements somehow. I am building skills but without cgpa they're useless.

Senior advice needed.

I'm a second sem student, going to 2nd yr. Although I tried my best to boost my gpa up from a medicore 8.5 in first sem, ive fucked up second sem. Bad performance plus high average classes so i don't have much hope. I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong academically. I attend classes, take notes, revise the material when i have time. I write stuff down, practice them, but most of my time went into assignments, record writing and travel back and forth.

To focus on my academics,I dropped the skills I was learning on the side, I was learning to code, build websites, cloud pipelines, ai agents, and learn to utilise linux. I was able to secure a general Internship mid sem but I had to drop it to focus on my grades. I felt like i wasn't worthy of it yet and combined with my falling grades, I dropped it. Not a good choice on my part. I feel like the college is providing me with such good opportunities to network and grow with other like minded individuals, but i had to stop it abruptly.

Now that the sem is over and I've finished my FAT's I'm evaluating where i need to focus on. Im aware that there is still time to bring my gpa up, but it would not be easy to get a 9 now. I'm aware that the first year is usually the best year for cgpa. My aim is to be placed in a decent company, but the future is grim.

I don't wish to pursue higher studies, My end goal is a good package in a product based company with potential for growth (software). Im also extremely aware of the current job market and that there is a high chance I'll come out unemployed. This would be my worst outcome as I personally do not come from a well off background and would be directly supporting my family with this. i do not have any connections either. So job is top priority.

What I'm seeking advice on is what steps do I take now?

Should I grind dsa, and other skills, continuing where I left off, in the summer, build projects, focus on innovation in the upcoming semesters, and eventually look to be placed off campus (which ik is insanely difficult), or do grade improvement in coming semesters, focus solely on boosting cgpa and sitting for placements while still honing my DSA skills?

Ik things aren't as cut and dry as I've put them, job market is unpredictable and they've frozen hiring, but i would like to give myself a foot in the door.

Im honestly lost, and would appreciate guidance from any well meaning person 🙏🙏

When do we get time to do grade improvement? Is it a viable option? Until when can we do it before it starts to affect placements and internships??

My main goal would be to do it to get a good grade to boost cgpa for placements, for this purpose is it a good option?? Any guidance??

I just got done with second sem. Might get an E in one subject but others A's B's maybe C's.
