I can't even make friends because of them

I'm on my second year in University and I don't live there, I just commute.

It's impossible to make friends there, I don't even know what to do, it's killing me on the inside. Humans need social interaction in order to be sane.
Everybody at this god damn university is shy and incredibly introverted, well not necessarily everybody but like 99% of them. I start a conversation with some dude sitting next to me and he just mumbles some crap and goes back to scrolling on his phone. Don't even get me started on the girls, I'll admit I'm bit of a loudmouth and a very outgoing person so when I talk to these girls they freeze up for some fucking reason.

In my classes, it's literally just me asking all of the questions apart from maybe 2 other kids. The zoomers don't say shit.
What the fuck, in a normal world a person like me should have lots of friends, I've been outgoing and extroverted my whole life now when I surround my self with zoomers, I feel isolated.

Got it, no dashes.

Zoomers seem anti-social because they grew up with phones and online stuff, so face-to-face talk isn’t their thing. The pandemic made things worse — lots of them missed out on normal social life. Plus, if you commute, you’re missing the casual hangouts that build friendships on campus.

Being loud and outgoing can scare shy people off because they don’t know how to handle that energy. Instead of pushing hard, try joining small clubs or study groups where people are more relaxed.

It sucks feeling isolated but it’s not just you — the social scene has changed. Keep trying but give people time to open up.

I'm pretty sure all zoomer women are having regular sex with someone, so I doubt everyone is antisocial. It's just you anon.

If your sex life is so great bitch then why are you here reading our shitposts?

Retards here will think you're a generally angry, judgemental and aggressive person because of this one singular post they read of yours made in a particular state of mind, so you're not going to get many good responses.

But basically, it's not just zoomers; for many years now, university students have been going in without any intention of making new friends or participating in classes. Here in Australia it's extremely bad since almost no one has to leave home for university. High school kids will organise going to the same universities to stay in their groups. Everyone can of course stay connected in their limited ways via social media. They don't leave their bubbles. Best you get is awkward little drunk get togethers for people living in the dorms, but that's... y'know. What it is.

I don't really have any advice for you, just saying, your experience is absolutely not uncommon, and it's been a thing for over a decade now.

You really do need to stop posting basedjaks though.

Look at it like this: I am most myself in isolation, I can be who I want to be without the burden of others. Why would [should] I sacrifice that for essentially negative benefits? For people I don't know, have nothing in common with beyond maybe race, and the very high likelihood that I'll gain nothing out of it except for being molded into someone else's idea of who I am.
I have no obligation to society besides paying taxes. I am not your "friend" or "fubby", we are strangers. Do not act like you're entitled to know me.

Covid lockdowns during their peak highschool years are probably to blame, people normally aren't comfortable with a NEET shut-in lifestyle.

they're cowards afraid of "being cancelled" when that didn't even do anything to half of the celebrities people actually know

not being free range children. They basically have "environmental autism". Basically when you dont learn social skills as a child you can never learn them as good.
