With that being said, here are 8 ways to talk to guys in college, that will feel natural and friendly.

In college, even though there are guys everywhere, it could be hard to make the first move and start a conversation. As a guy in college, no matter who talked to me, girls or guys, I was always happy to chat.

If you feel awkward about talking to guys, being friendly is the way to go! Remember, many people in college come from different states and are looking to make new friends too.

Here are 8 ways to talk to guys in college that actually work.

1. In Class

Being in class is a great opportunity to talk to guys. In college, many classes will require group work, projects and breaks where you can talk to other students.

Talking to a guy in class is very easy – keep in mind that you have a lot in common. You are now at the same school, in the same class and living in the same state. If you’re both away from home and family, this is something you have in common as well.

If you want to talk to a guy in class, consider asking a question about the class, if he lives on campus or what state he’s from.

Over the course of the semester, students will gravitate towards sitting in the same general area. This will allow you to get to know some of you class mates.

If you begin to become friends with a guy in class, feel free to ask for his Snapchat, Instagram or Facebook.

2. Student Events

Student events are a great place to talk to guys. Whether you’re at a job fair, a multi-cultural day or attending a guest speaker event, don’t be shy to talk with guys that are attending.

College events his is a great way to get to meet new people. Oftentimes, students will go to events to network and meet new people.

I recommend going to an event with a friend as it will be easier to talk to others. Meeting people in a group of at least two is a lot easier than being alone.

As cringy as it may sound, social media is a great way to talk to guys. If there’s a guy you want to talk to, you can find them on Instagram or Facebook and send them a message.

Unless the guy is in a relationship, they are probably going to answer you. It’s a really easy way to reach out to someone. If they don’t answer, don’t worry and don’t take it personally. Remember there are plenty of other guys out there.

Networking on social media is a great way to talk to more guys. If you’re shy and don’t want to talk in person, there’s nothing wrong with sending a message on social media.

4. Joining Clubs

If you’re looking to talk to guys with similar interests as you, join a club! In college, clubs are great ways to meet both guys and girls with the same interests as you.

There are clubs for religion, sports, games, video games and academics.

Students join clubs to connect with others. If you’re having trouble making friends and talking to guys consider joining a club.

5. Dating Apps

If you’re looking for a relationship and you are having trouble meeting guys on campus, consider signing up for a dating app. Over the last 3 years, there has been a huge increase in users on dating apps.

Meeting guys now, is as easy as ever. Swiping on a screen and sending a message instantly connects you with a guy. If you’re shy, dating apps are a great way to meet new guys and go out on dates.

If you are meeting up with a guy from a dating app, be careful! Make sure you take the proper precautions by making sure the guy is who says he is.

Consider FaceTiming before meeting up and checking out their social media.

6. Local Restaurants or Bars

Going to restaurants and bars is a great way to talk to guys. Many guys will go to bars with the intention of meeting girls.

If you’re interested talking to guys, consider going to a bar or restaurant with a friend. At most colleges, there are local bars and restaurants that all the students go to.

This is a great way to meet guys and make new friends. When I was in college, there are a local bar that everyone would go to on Thursday nights. Throughout my 4 years in college, I made many friends, met many people and made great memories at the bar.

7. Study Session

If you find yourself talking to the same group of people in class, consider asking to do a study session. Study sessions are a great way to become closer with your classmates while studying.

It’s very common for students to study together especially during exam time so don’t be shy to ask!

8. Working on Campus

There are plenty of jobs on campus where you will be able to work and meet guys. Many students will work a job on campus in order to earn some extra money.

Working a job will put you in a situation where you are working with all kinds of different people. Working is a great way to earn money while meeting new people.
