I've had the same difficulty with meeting people and making friends for a long time. Unfortunately, I think social media and mobile phones are making loneliness and social isolation so much worse. Everybody's constantly talking so much about themselves that they have no time for anyone else. People are obviously becoming much more self-obsessed and narcissistic.
What worked best for me in making friends was joining a band. That way, people came and spoke to me, and I didn't have to overcome the hurdle of introducing myself to them when I felt I'd be intruding. But I know that's not an option for most people. Perhaps, if you like music, you could go and see a musician or band that's playing locally? That way, you'd be amongst people who are there for the same reason, and you'd have something in common with them?
