This is harder than it sounds, because apparently other upperclassmen are settled into their current friends and not looking for any new ones. Do you have any suggestions on how to increase my friend circle, or join another one, while feeling like a full member?

Are they just transferring their latent creepiness onto the unsuspecting graduate students?
