Is it normal that i can't make friends?

No matter what I do, no matter what I say I cannot make a single friend. I have tried everything. Some say I come on too strong, others say I'm too aloof. But no matter my approach, it always ends in rejection. Is it normal to be incapable of basic human interaction?

    Friends are overrated. They will almost always let you down eventually.

    The trick is to be yourself, though I admit this piece of advise means nothing to me. I too find it difficult to make friends, mostly due to my aloofness. I find that it gets harder to make friends that older you get.

    Friendships basically evolved from hunting groups for men and childrearing for women...so in other words they had a common activity...without this common focus groups pretty much dissolve....find something you really like doing and gradually you will find others that like it as well

    well I find it easy to make friends, but always with the wrong kind of people. I really don't know what's worse to be honest

    I wouldn't say it's the norm because humans seem to naturally bond with others and form cliques of sorts, but it does seem like a somewhat common problem (if you even consider it to be a problem). I can't make friends, but I'm not bothered by it.

    I find it hard to make friends when I'm poor.

    You think you need friends because that's what society tells us but actually you don't. Some people are loners and others are more sociable. That is how it goes, accept yourself. The problem lies within you, and is almost unchangeable. I know because I'm like that and I learned to live with it.

    I find it super easy to make friends.

    I don't think of it as a goal though. I don't go out deliberatly trying to make friends, that would be weird. I just live my life and if i have a chance to socialize with someone i do so without hesitation.

    I think people like people who don't try too hard, people who aren't needy. Being funny helps...
