Awkward things that happen trying to make friends

Coming to university means you're going to meet a whole range of new people and some of these will become your best mates!

Making new friends might be a daunting thought but don't worry, you'll make some amazing memories and eventually laugh at that awkward first meeting...

• Awkwardly hovering over a conversation, never quite inputting anything interesting

So, whether it's awkward to begin or it's like you've known each other for years, you can guarantee you'll make brand new friendships that will last a lifetime!
