I'm 21 in school right now and I definitely feel this emotion you're describing. The thing that has worked the most for me has been doing what I enjoy and finding friends as a result.

Talking about art and foreign film viewing, concerts, interesting discussions. I don’t have much advice th...

I'm sure you've heard this one before: get a pet (as long as you have the finances, time and energy for it!). My cat has been a starting point of many good conversations and I have made a friend because of our mutual love of cats. Also pets are good folks to keep you company on your lonely days. Do...
