This is great advice. I want to add that it helps to have the necessary social skills to make those friends. I highly recommend Dale Carnegie’s How to Make Friends and Influence People. It’s old and a bit hokey but the advice is solid. It helped me grow from being awkward and largely friendless to awkward with a few friends!
Comment on its painful each time (┬┬﹏┬┬)

The secret is to make friends with common interests and focus on the interests.

I’m having my daughter read that now. I hate “self-help” books, but that one is essential.

Go to any gaming store, and they’ll have 5 weekly DnD sessions. Join one.

You meet these friends in real life?

A few of them, yeah.

It’s just practice. You’ll get better at it.
