Why can't I socialize right?

Today my parents have guests, and I tried to say hello, but no one heard me, and now I really don't want to go downstairs, but I know my parents will call me rude later.

Also, when I was out for a walk yesterday, I saw people I knew and couldn't stop to talk because I didn't know what to talk about.
The person asked, "Are you out for a walk?" and I said "Yes, walk," but couldn't say much more.

I completely get it. With me, it’s not that I don’t talk. I do talk but the stuff I say is so ridiculous later I wish I’d just stayed quiet.

@MarissaofLHP I'm sorry. I know how that feels too. 😔

I can't speak very well, so I struggle to get words out when it's strangers.

@Manfredthemanic just wanted you to know I get it.
