As a son of Asian immigrants, here is what I can share from my parents' own experiences 30 years ago. 1) It's really hard. My parents have been in USA for 30 years now, I can't say that they have fully assimilated. They largely stick to Asian neighborhoods with Asian friends. 2) Make friends through activities. Males tend to bond around an activity/hobby, we don't get together just to get together. Activities gives us something to talk about, something to do together and something learn from each other. Maybe it's hacking electronics, gardening, etc. 3) Find something to work at to boost your own self-confidence. It's a cycle, the better you feel about yourself, the more people are drawn to you, which helps you feel better about yourself. The internet typically recommends exercise, but find something you think is a weakness and work at it. For me, it's swimming in open water, which I find absolutely terrifying, but every time I swim a little bit further, I feel a lot better about myself. 4) If you need to get a roommate, get a roommate. Sounds like you are still in college if you are in an internship. When you go back to school, embed yourself into campus life. It's far easier to make long friendships in college than at work.
