Forget people you meet in school / college / work. Start building a circle outside, I know it isn't easy but try. Be it by starting some sport or hobby, or even using one of those dating apps (just clarify on the bio or whatever that you're after friendships and not romance, if allowed). People who'll meet you because they want to meet you and not because circumstances force them to meet you will, with all probability, behave differently.

You had friends in college? I mean I wasn't even quite able to get them.

Omg is that the face of the guy who always says "MY LEG?!"

.....there's always us 🤗

ur just too cool for them

Well was your touching consensual?
