How are we supposed to make friends if conversation is always boring?

That's a really good question. My mind is drawing blanks. I can't comprehend or imagine what it would be like if I had a friend. I'm 34 and have never had a friend before, so I don't even know what it would feel like. The closest I ever get to a friend is meeting a person who keeps talking to me even though I hardly ever talk back to them, I will respond to them, but I don't show much interest and I never actually do anything with them. They speak long monologues and I just listen and respond, that's it, I don't get anything out of it other than maybe gaining some information from them which can be useful, but I could also do that here on Reddit.
