>not how you become friends in the first place
That's not true. You can form friendships over activities. Say you enjoy playing tabletop games, and you happen upon someone in a tabletop world, you can play with them and bond over boardgames. Getting friends is not a simple on/off switch, it's something that takes time. You also can't expect the other person to take initiative all the time, you gotta put some effort into it too. It really helps to have something in common. I never said it was gonna be easy but I hope you find someone to be your friend.
