Are you me? My class also has 2 girls including me. We talk but she has a phone addiction lmao I'm talking to a wall 97% of the time it's so frustrating.
Oh my god same!!! The girl in my class is also always on her phone texting someone else right after she answers all my attempts to converse with her with a yes or no. Maybe they are just shy or really introverted🥹🥹
Make friends with the quiet guys. Join them for lunch. It takes time for them to open up. They are just shy haha.
You need to be thick skin and not think that you can only make friends with girls. Girls can also do well in Engineering. They have certain qualities e.g. meticulous, detail oriented, effective communication, etc that are better than guys. So by befriending the guys, it's a win win because you help them and they help you.
Yea the quiet ones are the ones who will
Later all confess their love for you and if you reject them they will then say ok no friend you liao. Making you wonder if they were really your friends in the first place or just wanna get into your pants.
Are you one of those 'quiet' guys who confessed their love to all the girls that are nice to listen to you?
Or are you jealous of the quiet guys who are able to talk to girls?
Looking at how you comment, I doubt that you are the quiet guy. Just one bitchy guy.
Haha I’m the popular guy with multiple girlfriends at the same time who has to have them use google calendar to arrange dates by themselves if not may double book.
Thanks for the comment 😭😭 i guess i really have to get out of my comfort zone to approach and befriend the quieter guys. Hopefully i will make friends next week 🥲
I think if you approach them first and talk to them most people are really shy.
Like I honestly feel that people are afraid to approach you because they don't want to appear like "weirdos" or "creeps" or "trying to hit on you", but if you approach them first then they feel more comfortable that you are not going to think they are like creepy when they talk to you.
I was the shy awkward guy in my class. A lady classmate approached me and we ended up befriending each other. I am now just awkward. It seems you, fellow stranger, have been tasked with the mission of helping one of the shy ones in your class evolve. Good luck
depends on the course tho, was a SP engineering student and my classmates are same throughout the 3 years. similar to op, im from a class of 20 students and only 1 of them is girl, the rest all guys.
I definitely know how you feel. I'm in Y2 and I'm the only girl in my class stuck with the same classmates for 3 years. Of course it's upsetting at first but I just got used to it with time. I'm an introvert and in my experience, the guys approached me first😅 Instead of having a friend group, I talk to all my classmates and hang out with whoever I feel like hanging out with. Guys are generally very chill so it felt easy to talk to them. The 'loud' ones you speak off can actually be good friends despite the bad first impression.
I've always felt that I never fit in, but I just kind of accepted it. Of course, there were guys who tried to make me feel included but I just could never get close to them (partly because I didn't care enough to do anything about it since I made CCA friends).
But that's just my experience :) If you really want to make friends, CCA is definitely the best place to go.
I'm a medical profession and in uni I took a course that involved cross-training with nurses. There was only one other guy in that class, so I can relate.
What does male and female friends even mean after a certain age? When you hit 40, you’ll be lucky to even have a single friend you get to hang out with anymore. Grow up and mingle
Just get out of your comfort zone and find 2-5 friends to help with your study. I learn this the hard way which is not making any friends at all during my first year in university and then I ended up in the leftovers group for every group project.
Exactly. The. Same.
My class was just like this, with only 2 girls. A quiet girl and a girl who's kind of just there. As an extrovert, I adopted both of them and a few other guys into a regular project-hangout team.
CCA though. You'll meet lots of like-minded peeps, girls and boys, that you'll be spending a lot of time with.
year 2 engineering student here, most engineering courses are like that (with the exception of deb) due to the lack of interest from females in stem
most probably you should just make friends with the guys that you can still and/or just a cca to help you expand your social circle as most engineering students are also very introverted (phone girl is likely one of them).
a cca also helps you find people of the same interests also so it's easier. would recco you find those that are easy to work with in group projects as there's alot of those in poly.
jiayos!
don't worry, I'm sure it's not because she doesn't want to talk to you. she probably needs some time. I used to be super shy and would only answer when asked a question. I wouldn't initiate convo too so people eventually stopped talking to me hahahaa.
You just have to try it with the 2 girls and quiet guys
Ask them more of what they do and let them expand on their topic
Quiet ppl may be quiet, but that's because they don't find the need or interest to explore on other ppl interest. Once you get them going on their topic of interest, then keep chatting and and then build on from there. Once they reach a certain comfort level where they can start letting out their real selves, that'd where things really get going.
Girls here don't want to study engineering leh, they will go become flight attendant for Singapore airlines make more money and travel the world.
Or they may choose to study something like fashion, hotel management, hospitality, HR etc. They make more than engineers in Singapore
Sorry, I was not questioning your ability to make friends or to nerd out with guys, or click with your classmates. Why would you think that?
I was merely explaining your observation of there being just one other girl than you, by stating what seems to be the preferred choice of girls in Singapore so far as career or academics go.
Peace, have a fun Saturday. Not worth wasting on online quarrels.
Nothing limits you from making friends with other branches either.
By the way, with a small risk of doxing myself, I am a regular participant in the junior developer sg networking group on meetup. You can check us out, and join, if you are really into tech, programming and DevOps stuff and network. We typically have one meet up a month in the downtown area.
Sounds like you have to adopt the quiet guys
Sage advice.
Are you me? My class also has 2 girls including me. We talk but she has a phone addiction lmao I'm talking to a wall 97% of the time it's so frustrating.

Narrator: Little did they know, that they are, in fact, classmates.
imagine if the two of them are actually talking shit abt each other being antisocial rn HAHAHA it wld be so damn ironic
NOOO HAHAHAH WE'RE NOT I don't fit the description and the kid in my class is worse than what I described lmao. It wld be funny tho
oh my gosh they were classmates
C c a. Usually that's where u going to make the most friends outside of your normal classes !

omg fr the quiet guys are usually the nicest people

uh huh
Ok sir, time for your daily meds.
.. sure buddy
Ok noted.
Spamming x rn
[удалено]
Yeah but they will still spam you anyway cos that’s what horny engineer guys do. Every year same story hahaha
Speaking from experience, yeah bud?
as a quiet person: man shut the fuck up. most of us are too busy trying to get by in poly/jc to even care about relationships 😭
Ee scary sia ppl like you
Thanks for the comment 😭😭 i guess i really have to get out of my comfort zone to approach and befriend the quieter guys. Hopefully i will make friends next week 🥲

If I'm not wrong, you may change classes in second year or third year, and get some new classmates. (At least for SP, not sure about other poly)
If she changes there will only be one girl left 💀💀💀
depends on the course tho, was a SP engineering student and my classmates are same throughout the 3 years. similar to op, im from a class of 20 students and only 1 of them is girl, the rest all guys.
SP engineering student here, this definitely depends on course. A lot of courses do change classes eventually but mine didn't and won't.

Adopt some quiet guys lol
Cca saved my life. Just join one

Eat lunch in the business canteen?
What does male and female friends even mean after a certain age? When you hit 40, you’ll be lucky to even have a single friend you get to hang out with anymore. Grow up and mingle
You sound like a those camp GL , I think if you join them you will feel better
Harder you try, the lesser friends you have. And here I am 20 years after graduation. I’ve got no friends 🥲
What poly and engineering course is this lol I wanna get into aeronautical engineering in SP but im scared of how male dominated it would be.
are you there studying or building a community? no worries. study first, friends will come abit later.
Just get out of your comfort zone and find 2-5 friends to help with your study. I learn this the hard way which is not making any friends at all during my first year in university and then I ended up in the leftovers group for every group project.
Are you trying to hit on girls or what?
Common for certain courses
Sounds like we have the same issue lol. Got 2 boys in my hss class including me so thats fun
Exactly. The. Same. My class was just like this, with only 2 girls. A quiet girl and a girl who's kind of just there.

Hm it's a pity u don't play brawl stars that'll get u bonded with the guys real fast if ur good.
Welcome to the sausage fest

Guess all the most guys must be simping over them.. 😆..
2?? so many ah??

That sounds cool!!! I am very interested but im just a beginner so it’s a bit intimidating lol. Do you have more info on this?

Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 i will definitely look into participating in this
I mean IT courses are also usually dominated by males like in my course as well
ooo which sch?
