Firstly you need to get hobbies, like you can join some clubs, visit some places regularly and make friends in those club. If you're planning on going to university then there too join them clubs and talk to people!!! Be genuine and authentic and develop some social skills (some sense of humor ig?). Goodluck babes♡
Oh wow, same age same problems.
People form groups by proximity like interacting frequently and by sharing hobbies etc so... Easiest is finding people that may share your likes and dislikes and to listen more, speak less.
Ofcourse, improvise and adapt
Hobbies GREAT
uhhhh idk if you're talking about college or just finding friends in college.
if it's college look for people who look like your type of friends who idk dress like you or look sweet or something. be friendly say hi everyone's new so everyone wants to make friends yk, try to compliment someone about their hair or shirt or whatever that's a good way to start a conversation. don't be too shy just always push yourself and say yolo bc if you dont make friends at the start it's difficult to make any by the end of the semester when all the friend groups have formed.
if it's daily life i'm sure you do things like go the gym or go for runs or walks or even just sitting on your laptop at a cafe or reading a book there. smile at people and make yourself seem approachable, try the same method of complimenting someone randomly. if you have a certain routine of doing the same stuff everyday like gym or training or even work for example, you'll often see the same people everyday so try to start up a conversation about literally anything bro like hey i see you everyday yada yada make something up it always works. and if the other person also wants to be your friend they'll find a way to keep that convo going until you yk eventually become friends.
I'm 22 and I have no idea how managed so far I just happen to have convo with people while smiling and get over with it.
Joining clubs does work wonders, i found quite a few new friends after that. Don't worry, it takes time, but just try to take it easy and don't stress over it!! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
AGHH I FEEL U but most of the advice i would tell u is already mentioned here so one thing i would add is just go for it girl (T^T) we live only once and everybody's learning along the way and might as well have fun with it(づ￣ ³￣)づ
