This paper collects data utilizing questionnaires and in-depth interviews, applies a relational perspective, divides them into strong and weak relationships, dissects the dilemma of collective social alienation and social anxiety brought about by the duality of social networks among university students in China, and makes suggestions at three levels: from individuals, social forces and universities, hoping to provide a new perspective for the study of the social networks of university student groups and promote the cultivation of good social. It is hoped that this will provide a new perspective for the study of social networks among university students and promote the cultivation of good social psychology and social behavior among university students, thus achieving the harmonious dqevelopment of social order.
