The one thing I worry about when it comes to starting college is making friends. I was relatively friendly and confident on the day, to everyone which attracted the attention of one girl. She sat next to me initially and I was going to compliment her bracelet as a way to start conversation but something held me back. Then for a couple hours, she followed me everywhere and when we looked at the animals, I said 'they're so cute' to her and she just giggled. But there was a girl there who is younger than me (doing a lower level version of my course too) who I knew from my school and we got talking and at first, it was a pretty good thing to have found someone to talk and walk with on the day, but this understandably pushed this other girl away. We were talking about the open day where we held animals and I was going to ask the other girl if she had held an animal on the open day because she was right behind us, but again, something held me back. She was distant from me for the rest of the day which I was quite sad about and I kept trying to look at her to give her a smile to give the message that I'm still interested a friendship and that I'm approachable still, but she didn't reciprocate it. :sad:
How can I try again, if you like, at a friendship with her when I start college?
