Is it normal that i'm struggling to make new friends?

I've been struggling a lot to make new friends, this is because in real life most of my friends have either moved on from things we enjoyed or no longer talking to me anymore.

I've been feeling a lot lonely these days as a result of it and I'm not here to get attention this is what I truly feel, I'm not sure what I need to do in order to make new friends because I'm just a shy dude who makes conversations so much awkward, at this point I feel like I'm just a hopeless person.

I'm probably just a failure who'll make no friends in life as I've got none right now.

    Try some new hobbies or ask around at work what others do in the srea for fun, try a college class, shop at smaller stores where people will remember you, look for social or volunteering groups in your area

    Have you got many hobbies? I've gotten into all kinds of things. Archery, boating, snowmobiling, etc. Thinking about buying a dirt bike next. I've met a lot of people everytime I take up a new sport or hobby. Even if you're awkward you're usually able to chat people up about this or that pertaining to your hobby. Who knows. Might meet some new people that way.

    Do you work? I have a lot of random friends from working. Or going to the bar.

    Going to a bar can be thr best way to make friends. Just become a regular there.
