Why is it hard to make friends?

So, why's it hard to make friends? I'm young/ish still and i think it's because everyone has grown up together and because i moved around i lack social skills and never settled. The place we did settle, i had lots of mates and was accepted. Why do i find it hard to make connections? Do other people find that? I can confidently talk to someone at a bus stop or train, but at work or in the pub, it's difficult...

I get you about the talking to people easily in certain surroundings and not others. So, my best advice is to concentrate your friend making efforts where and when you can. Be a good mate and people'll want to be mates with you. It's a two way street.

Some guys find it hard to feel comfortable around other people. Hopefully it's something that will be outgrown

@MartinTheFirst: I think it's a shame tho. I'm sure we both got something to offer. We just need to get out our comfort zone i think...I'm a sociable person, i don't wanna be a loner for longer than i already have been...
