Hey guys, Im in desperate need of some advice.

I began University about 4-5 weeks ago and i wanted to be known from day 1. I wanted to be known for being social, fun and bringing a good vibe because thats who i am deep down. After week 1, i met a few people, one whom i enjoyed hanging out with because he too, was social. by the time it was week 4-5 we had our own big group of about 10-15 of us. I was loving life. Every break was just full of laughs and getting closer to each other as a whole.. and then something happened.

Its now the beggening of week 6. Last week the main guy i would hang with to go out and socialise and get to know people started hanging out with others, which is fine, but he no longer generates any conversations with me so i feel abandoned. We still talk as a group, but i feel that connection of brotherhood amongst each other is gone.

I want to continue my social path more then anything, i want to meet girls and establish a connection with somebody i find interesting. Only problem is, now my main circle of friends who gave me that extra push to socialise is basically gone. There is no group anymore, everybody has split into their own paths and it pisses me off because i took some of these guys as genuine brothers. I have nobody to fall back on which leaves me completely vulnerable.

Im not saying im dependant on a group to socialise butas i said, it allowed me to fall back to somebody incase of a rejection. Im basically on my own now, i cant be a clown and loud like i was before because i would look like an idiot just being loud and clownish by myself and now my urges of speaking to girls has increased more then ever.

What should i do? I dont have any confidence problems approaching girls but most of the time they are in groups, and iv came to the conclusion that approaching groups isnt really a good idea. Should i just go and sit in a random group and introduce myself and get to know people or? What do you guys think i should do.

Im actually really upset about it all. I was so happy and sure i was going to meet everybody and eventually find somebody but now there is a big obstacle (this) in the way... How can i get myself out there!?
