Or start a new language course.  You are always asked to do speaking exercises with the other students so you are basically forced to break the ice.  Maybe something will develop from there

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

Yoda, try some Martial arts. You are pretty knowledgeable in MMA, so training would not be a big step. Nothing builds a bromance faster than beating the shit out of each other. And if they start to annoy you, well knock their asses out. You can hook up with people by asking them to practice in the weekend or something. Now if you are afraid to get hit, try Judo, BJJ or Catch.

Oh man, that's an excellent suggestion.  That's worked out very well for me in the past.

You know, it's extreme but I'm pretty sure that if you made a massive sign saying "Hug me" and went out in the busy shopping season and stood in the same spot for a few days, you would get some takers.

I'm only have joking. It would be an interesting social experiment.

But there was a guy who did this and went around the world with it. I'm pretty sure you can find the videos on youtube.

^He was wearing trouseres. I think what Yoda is trying to say that he doesn't have any trousers, so he'd just get arrested.

I don't think I made any friends in college. I was so busy trying to get good grades...and I was getting into art at the time. But those were excuses. I didn't really try I guess. I think I could've tried to date or hang out more. In hindsight maybe I should have done that. Some regrets.

I made some friends in a small art community, but I lost contact with most of them.

But my closest friends from high school all moved out of state and some out of the country. I gradually lost contact with them. They moved on which I was glad to see.

I made several friends at uni. Then the fuckers all bailed out after the first year Hrm

I had to make new friends, I latched onto a group of three other guys. They were good company to chat but not the kind of people I would go out with and have fun with.

If I could do uni all over again I would basically spend all my time hitting on girls.
