ok done
[size=-2] *Hugs.* I'm sorry you feel lonely. Sometimes it's really hard to relate to other people enough to make friends. I'm pretty introverted myself; My energy depletes much faster if I'm out being social or have company over, and usually I have to take some time to myself to recover afterwards.
Always remember though, you come first!
Make sure you're taking care of yourself, and take things one day at a time--If you're feeling lonely and need someone to vent or talk to, I'm more than happy to listen. Remember to drink plenty of water, eat right and get some fresh air--It can be very difficult to do so when you're lonely or down, but even sitting by a window if you can and putting your thoughts together can do wonders for your mood. Don't force yourself to make friends or socialize if you aren't ready; take things at your own pace. [/size]

On the flip side of what the above poster said, remember that you are in charge of your own destiny. If you want to make more friends, go out and meet them! Think you're bad with people? Well you'll never be good with people unless you practice and fail at interacting with them. And failing is ok, there are plenty of fish in the sea after all. And even if you feel you're not in a sea and more in a small pond, blunders will heal with time. You just need to keep putting your foot forward and trying to make the best of every day.
I feels ya, buddy. I used to and still kind of am introverted, but the only way you're going to change that and make friends is if you do it yourself. Try to go to places people like you would go to and start chatting. Just put your best foot forward and try to relate to other people. Trust me, you don't want to regret thinking of "The one that got away"

The advice of "just go somewhere and start talking to people" has never worked for me personally because I'm a pretty shy/introverted person. Even at my current age I can't ever do that. What helped me most (especially in regards to getting out of the house that just made me more depressed) was getting a job because you're constantly interacting with people, so you get better and more comfortable at it. I don't know how old you are to see this as a viable option, but it worked for me. Volunteering is a thing too.
