How can I make friends as a commuter student?

I’m ending my freshman year of college and I’ve been trying to wait it out and see if I can, and so far, I haven’t. I’m also on the Marietta campus and that makes everything more difficult because I’m an extroverted person and I love going to the Kennesaw campus.

I feel isolated as a commuter

Hi I’m 19f and I just started college in the fall, I graduated high school class at 2025 and the last part of my senior year I had a horrendous relationship break up, I don’t wanna talk much about it, but it was my first ever relationship as I am quite a late bloomer and it was really hard for me.

I tried to lean on my friends, but I guess because we were at the end of high school. It was mostly during the summer. Everyone was kind of checked out and ready to start this new chapter of their lives. This breakup sent me into a deep depression because I was cheated on and replaced and like I said it’s the first time I’ve ever been in a relationship before so it sent me into a depression.

My parents got tired of it and were harsh with their words every day about it, they were tired of me being sad abouy it and just wanted me to go back to normal. My best friend after 4 months told me she didn’t want to talk about it anymore, and I started getting harsh comments from a lot of people about being upset about it. So I kind of stopped talking to anyone about it and kept it bottled in.

I live at home for college and I’m a commuter student which also makes things more difficult. I don’t really have opportunity to just go on campus and hang out with people. I do reach out to others to try and find connection but most of the time people are busy with their own things. It’s been about eight months of this and I’m just starting to get really upset about it again. I’m not upset about the relationship anymore but Mabye I’m just looking for some tough love?

I also don’t really care for being in my home that much because my parents tried to kick me out in October over me being upset over the relationship. I talked to Gemini a lot and ChatGPT, but I realized it’s just fueling the isolation even more. I realize I’m not even talking to people online and I’m just talking to a robot. Does anyone have any advice for me? I feel like in high school I saw people every day but now I just go to class and come home and do nothing. I do start a new job tomorrow so maybe that will help a lot. It’s just so hard seeing everyone be so happy in their college for a groups on social media, but I am getting the opposite of the college experience. It’s just not fun. I just wanna be happy again.

On top of that I wasn’t a very popular person in high school but I had my friends and my friend group. I do think I’m a very pretty person or a very beautiful woman and men approach me a lot, but I’m not looking for a relationship I just want friendship you know my community so any advice?
