I want to make real life friends who I can go and hang out with after middle school I found it extremely hard to make friends, all the social charisma and confidence died with middle school me, unfortunately I was struggling mentally and didn't care to make new friends or even keep the ones I had, so now I'm damn near alone.

The thought of just going up to someone random and striking up a conversation makes me wanna vomit, especially if it's someone from my school so that isn't going to work.

I am posting this one last time as a last ditch effort.

Where I live, going up to someone and saying hi would likely not result in a friendship but instead an awkward conversation where you leave without friends and the people you went up to forever think of you as "weird", I also cannot do after school activities as I already struggle keeping up with homework as is and I am also trying to get into volunteering, I can't do summer programs where I have to go every day because it'll get tiring and overwhelming since I am trying to find a summer job plus there is already a summer program I am trying to do (the people in the program I know and would get on with but they'd be more like work friends since it's a training program)

I have 3 real life friends currently, one does a lot of school events and things like that, she's on the committee that gets all that situated so she has to go to all of those plus she has a lot of friends and she's always doing something event wise so we never hang out, the other one has a lot of friends aswell, he goes to all the school events and is literally always doing something or always celebrating a friend's birthday with them (I literally think bro has more than 100 friends) so he is always busy aswell and even if I get invited along with something I'm that person awkwardly in the corner because everyone is so loud and out there that I kinda get drowned out, the last one I have skips a lot of her classes I'm pretty sure, I know she almost always skips the class we are in together, after we became friends she came to the class consistently for a little while but unfortunately faded out after about two or 3 weeks, I also think she smokes weed or something cuz she's always a little out of it and the first time we met she literally didn't know where she was or what class period was next (as in 1st 2scnd 3rd), she came up to me confused and asked if the school day was over despite there being a bunch of people all over the place and a bunch of people eating lunch.
