I've moved into my accomodation last Saturday. I've met all my flatmates, who are luckily quite nice and do their best to keep the communal areas tidy and clean so far. However, most of my flatmates love to go out every night, to pubs or clubs, which really isn't my thing. Most also seem to be more on the extroverted side (bar one who just stays in their rooms for virtually the entire day). I do make small talk with my flatmates in the kitchen and have had some nice conversations, but I don't think we have a lot in common when it comes to our interests and personalities. I did go out with a couple flatmates to explore the campus and go into my city too, and whilst the experience was nice and a good experience I don't feel there's any natural chemistry between us.
I do plan on joining societies (could be good to find like-minded people), and I've done some ice breaker activities between some course-mates which were really fun (and I could see myself befriending lots of people there due to the similarities I share with some), I've even gained a couple of contacts already from those.
I was wondering if it's normal that flatmates continue having such a close relationship together throughout the year, or are they only close because societies and courses haven't properly started? I was curious to see if I were the only person experiencing this. Thank you :)
Edit: Can't thank you all enough for the valuable insight you've all given me! Really put me at ease as an anxious and clueless fresher hahaha
