who cares, get a place by yourself, concentrate on banging chicks. Those friends living with you will only serve as cockblockers.
Maybe they did not want to hurt your feelings or maybe they did not want to have to put up with you for the remainder of time you would be staying if you knew you were not wanted.
Freshman drinking? Aren't you like 19? Lol I too am a freshman 2nd sem, this isn't a problem for me cuz I stayed in H-Town I don't even like drinking, the bitter taste is gross and I don't know how people like it. But yeah people in college tend to be fake assholes. Making quality friends is difficult, and even harder to find a relationship.
OP you shouldn't care about this at all what so ever. Get a place, make your grades and have fun in the process. The real word awaits you in a few years. There is a cubicle out there somewhere with a dilbert calendar calling your name.
Lack of morals in Western Culture. There are good people out there. Look inward, focus on building yourself, and you will see them.
I had this same issue my freshman year, my best friend who I planned to live with the following fall joined this indian frat and just hung out with them and ended up moving in to their frat house. I ended up getting a place by myself but looking back on it that was a mistake, it made me be not as outgoing for that semester. I found some room mates by the next semester and all was good in the world. So my advice, just get some random room mates and make the best of it.
If you're at UH, hang out in the UC at the ping pong tables. Nothing more awesome than rooming with a ping pong buddy who's always ready to go.
Just quit drinking. Simple as that. I have a friend who drinks. He recently was passed over for a promotion at work.
Personal exp, friends like those are flaky b****es, though some are reliable for b**** things. They aren't your dogs though, if you catch my drift. It's not a good or bad thing since you can't expect all your friends to act the same nor share every virtue. /life
say you will stop drinking and need their help to get through it, get them to sign the lease and then **** em. better the devil you know

There's a slight difference between honesty and candor. Honesty is along the lines of truthfully answering to something when asked. Candor is telling someone the truth when they need to know it. Both are difficult, but candor a little more so because it requires activity. Honesty can be passive. Candor cannot. And, both require an ethical strength that, it seems, many (maybe most) people lack when the stakes get beyond a certain point. And here's the trick - if you only have ethics when it's easy to have them, then you don't really have them. Maybe, if you're completely satisfied with how you appear to others (or you have never been challenged on it), you will never have those ethics. In that case, you don't have a set of standards that, whatever the circumstances, you use to guide your behaviors, to evaluate your own actions. You only have postures based on your immediate context. So, you're satisfied with simply appearing a certain way, and feel no need to actually be that way. Being that way requires attentiveness, concern, and strength. And, from my experience, those qualities are rather rare. Maybe it's more important to feel happy when you find someone with those qualities than it is to feel disappointed when you discover that the people around you completely lack them. That's the point where there's only one important question: Do I actually have those qualities? And, if I don't, then what justification do I have to expect them from others? This is one of the many lessons I learned from your mother. I won't go into details on the other, sexier, lessons.
I hope you are a female because your post is a disgrace to men. Seriously, man up!! Why would you want to live with or cry about being ditched by a group that does not want you?? There are plenty of other folks out there that you can befriend. If you are having friends problems and you are losing sleep over it, I shudder to think what is going to happen when you get dumped by a girl.
