Why do you think it's not working? What problems do you see when establishing rapport with people?

Describe a situation where you're talking to someone trying to make friends, what happens?

If I had to say, I think I might seem a little boring. I'm not very good at social situations and sort of awkward, though I've been trying to fix that, and I'm not very funny or anything. I just can't seem to connect with a lot of the people I talk to, which isn't helped by the fact that my hobbies are either kind of niche or attract really unsavory individuals.

>talking with new person
>usual routine of "Oh, where are you from/major/clubs/etc"
>don't really have anything in common and don't really feel a pull, keep trying to bond anyway
>conversation soon comes to an awkward end and I never really talk with them again
I don't even think I LIKE people all that much, but I do want friends I can talk with and connect to.

Try a change of tactics. Instead of trying to find someone with common interests,how about trying to set up a situation where you share an experience (do something together) with someone?

Have any examples of how one might bring about a situation like that? Just inviting someone to randomly try something new seems awkward if I just met them.
