Why did my crush like me for only two days in a row?

In PG, I met 5 other girls from my classroom, and from the start, I kept my expectations low and was sure that I did not fit in with them, so I kept my distance, and my only connection in college was my roommate at that time.She advised me multiple times to hang out with that group.
