why does nobody care about me?

I think making connections in a big city can be quite an overwhelming experience because everything moves so fast. I've been there too where you try every possible way but somehow end up feeling left out in the mix. And maybe it's true that superficial greetings can sometimes seem like they're enough when deep down they're not really reaching us emotionally or mentally.

moved to a new city a while back and had the exact same feeling, especially when I joined an office where it felt like everyone already knew each other for ages.

It's tricky, you know, this situation where you're putting yourself out there but feel like you're just blending into the background; maybe it's that cities kind of have this buzz that sometimes makes real connection hard to find, even when we think we're doing everything right.

honestly maybe your just being hard on yourself...social stuff takes time right? moving isn't easy n you probably need to give it more months anyway before judging so quickly! besides if they say hi all nicely well that's atleast a start kinda!

hey, i totally get how you're feeling. moving to a new city can feel like starting from scratch in so many ways, and it's brave of you to dive into different activities. in my experience, sometimes it takes just one deep conversation to break through that surface-level stuff; maybe focusing on quality over quantity could help? try finding someone who shares a specific interest or hobby and go deeper with them instead... you might be surprised at the connection you can build 😊 keep that hope alive!

finding your place in a new city is like, the ultimate challenge; i once moved to this vibrant metropolis full of promise but felt like just another dot on the map.

Once I had a similar experience when I first moved to New York.

It might take some time to find your tribe, but when you do, it's going to be golden; have you thought about organizing a small gathering yourself like a coffee meetup or something with people who share similar interests?

interesting how cities are like beehives, buzzing with activity yet somehow isolating; I've observed that sometimes it's the little things (offering a genuine compliment or remembering a small detail about someone) that can lead to more meaningful interactions, though, let's be honest, even then it might still feel like wading through molasses.

yeah sounds familiar i once felt lost at my new job took forever to feel settled

finding friends in a new place is always tricky cuz every group already has their dynamics set out...but also let's not forget some newbies are accepted easier than others due random chances or even certain vibes (kinda crazy!). Surviving those first few events itself is commendable good luck can shine next roadblock!
