the fact is none knows what's going through your life and have no idea about you. if you want more people around you create some personal values and stick to them. people enjoy different things, it's up to you to promote them in the best way. be more vocal and friendly, but express your feelings normally. i am 23M currently going to college and working part time job, i don't even have much time to go out and hang out, but when i do meet people i'm 'winning them over' with actively speaking. i can talk about something for hours, i can ask them anything. if they respond that's great they are right people for you, if not they might not be. overall not a big deal, you shouldn't care much cuz you have your own things to do, you aren't dependent on other people and there's a whole bunch of them. you're talking like everyone else is perfect, which surely isn't the case. you're underrating yourself and overrating others, most likely because you aren't active in meeting them or when you do you assume from the very beginning that whatever they say and/or do is right (which is kinda naive my friend, learn to put yourself and your wishes/needs in no1 position )
