I have no idea how to make friends at my uni and I was hoping to hear some success stories.

I have two close friends apart from those my wife brought into the relationship. I latched onto both out of necessity while going to the university. I am very bad at orientation in time and space. So I never knew which the next class was and where I had to go to. So in the first semester I had to find people with similar classes and just tag along. This was not easy since I'm also bad at identifying people. Over time the number of people I followed reduced to about four. And two of those are my best friends to this day.
