lol, no worries, loads of people in rl call me that
On the making friends thing, sometimes it can just be a question of confidence. We know you're fabulous, you know you are fabulous and if they don't think you're fabulous then it is their loss Sometimes if you act as if people are already your friends then they just become them. Also, are there activities you could join?
I have to make new friends constantly now I am moving from place to place and it is hard and most of the time I don't much feel like it, but I have to just push on anyway because life is much more fun with people than without.
