Hey OP imagine the people you would like to be friends with. Why would they want to be friends with a lonely nerd who judges other people with no selfawareness? Become the person who can add value to the people you want to be friends with. Without specifics it’s hard to give actionable advice on this. At general social meetups you’re going to find similarly lonely and lost people with nothing in common. They also very likely have a negative mindset. So skip those and go directly to the events of people you want to be friends with.
