My friend is a friendly nice guy, who is always easy to approach. He has a hard time finding other friends in college, and doesn't know exactly how or what to say to make them. I suggest parties, but he tells me their just for drinking, and he is not into that. He can't seem to find anyone that relates to him, and anyone he is friendly with is just a "hi" and walk by friend. He feels left out at times and sits in his room thinking about whether to go out or not because he doesn't have any guy friends to go out with.
Any suggestions on how I could help him overcome this issue? |

The best thing to do would be to encourage him to join a club so he can meet people with common interests.
To give him some backup, you can go to the first couple of meetings with him so that he'll feel a little safer but still make the move to introduce him to other people. Then, once he's fully integrated and made his own friends, you can slowly back away and let him branch out. |
