need help talking to friends

Question

ive become aware that i don't know how to have conversations with other people. one reason is because i have anxiety about social interactions and that idea is scary to me. another reason is i simply don't like talking to other people and don't get any enjoyment out of it. another reason is because i simply have nothing in my head to say.

the only reason i have friends is because i follow my girlfriend everywhere she goes

i feel constantly left out and as if I don't deserve friendships and i have found no improvement in this over the years. i urgently need to be able to make friends and keep friends but i just can't.

any advice/similar experiences is appreciated.

Answer

I struggle making conversation so badly but the best advice I heard is if you see someone who looks cool, tell them. It's that simple. For example "I like your shirt! Do you listen to that band?" or "Cool hair, what kind of hair dye do you use?" Just figure out a question to ask about them, and usually it will turn into a conversation, and you might become friends!! Hope this helps (´｡• ω •｡`) ♡
