Is your university life as boring as mine?

You meet most people outside of class at social events. I took chemistry at university too and unless you get a lucky lab partner that is not an ideal place to pick up women. A party, hooka lounge, hobby, club, etc? Now we're talking.

If you want to meet women in class take classes with lots of group projects.

The point is 70 percent of students are girls in chemistry. So why am I without girls in a department full of girls?
 
You were with chicks?

The rooms themselves were not co-ed but the floors had both male and female rooms. You usually had to pass 2-4 female rooms to get to the next male room

Or join the study groups if they have them but yeah the classroom isn't going to be a good place to pick up girls
 
All I do is go to school and come back home. There is nothing else. I have no chick friends, there is no activity. I take the bus get to school and after the lesson is finished, I again take the bus and get home. Its not like I am living an university life. My university life is this bad. Is yours as boring as mine or you have chick friends and have activites unlike me?

It sounds like you're not attending your chosen institution of higher learning to actually...well...learn. Your post gives away what is always on your mind: chicks.

Drop out and go to a nightclub, or join a gym. They are cheaper, and there's none of that...learning stuff to distract you.
 
are you dorming?

if not, that's the world of difference. I commuted so my university life was pretty boring.

This is the biggest factor. Commuting to college makes it just like high school except with different hours. Dorm life was the best life experience ever. This is also where most people meet their significant others and life-long friends.
 
All the stuff that happens in college that you dont know how to participate in or join, it all happens on campus, and it takes time and effort to find out about it.

Why not ask some folks from your classes if there is anything going on over the weekend, or if they are going to go and watch the sports team play the home game .. put yourself on the line and say that you dont know many people around campus and just want to hang out and be more sociable.

If you are too shy/nervous around women, then try to just make some dude friends and hang out with them, sooner or later you are bound to run into some womenfolk if you are out and about with friends.

I wanna be talkin to chicks
 
That was me... but I was happy as a very low-key person.

Mines didn't involve hookers, unfortunately.
 
Gotta move to a dorm. Never met anyone in class... all srs business there. I was shy and antisocial coming into college (still am really), but being surrounded by dorm mates that partied nonstop forced me into the life style. The only friends I have now and regularly hang out with are from college.

Chicks dont talk to me. The first step is to make them talk to me

Dude,

The last person that I know of that talked like this did some very bad stuff at my daughters college. If you are trolling you need to stop.

If you are serious you need to go talk to a school counselor/therapist. They are free and everything is confidential.
 
You should check out RSD. Look up their videos online. Go to their website. You'll be meeting girls in no time!

Glad I'm not the only one who's Cocoa Puffs senses were tingling.

...like?
 
Mine was similar but during spares/lunches we'd usually play cards or play pool and stuff so that was fun. But other than that it was far from what TV wants you to think. Thing is, you don't really have the TIME for the kind of stuff you see on TV like parties and stuff. When you go home, you have about 5-10 hours of home work to do, by that time, it's time for bed because you have to get up early the next day.

I actually found school and college way more stressful and busy than being in the "real world" work force. First off, you get paid for the work you do, and get paid for any OT. When you go home, it's your time, not the school's. No homework.
