no I'm 22
Try putting yourself out there into situations where you will make friends based on your interests like comic books, super heroes, video games, anime, lifting, sports, or through community things like volunteering or a local church does lots of social events

I need to make friends online first so I can practice talking before I do something like that
problem is, I'm too strange even for that
Anon,
answer the following:
1. Why do you want to make friends?
2. What is it that you find / would find pleasing about having friends?
3. What are behaviours you believe others might find strange?
4. Does these behaviours objectively make sense?
5. If not, would you be disposed to change them?
6. What is the opposite of such behaviors?
7. List the ones you possess and briefly elaborate about the extent to which you have them: hobbies, education, fit body, good appearance, money.
Also, buy and read this book:

1, because I want to share experiences with people
2, company and support
3, I am fucking insane, for example I have over 3000+ pictures of someone I have liked for over half a decade saved
4,5, no but I can't/won't stop
6, not being insane
7, what

Well, you're fucked.
All interactions are transactional even if you don't notice it.
I gave you honest relevant questions and you reply with a shitpost. Outta here.
Just remember, relationships are transactional. You must have something others enjoy. For the idiots is money or looks, for the romantics is loyalty, hikes, jokes, a table game with pizza, a shoulder to cry on and late discussions about the meaning of existance.
You will find friends the moment you find out what you're looking for in others and what you can provide in exchange that others enjoy.

i wouldn't really call that shitposting, this is just who he is
Look mate, you're not going to make friends unless you change. You recognise that you have really weird behaviours but you say you "can't/won't" change. Why the fuck is anyone going to put any effort into a relationship with you? You clearly don't want to change yourself even though you know you're weird, but in order to get friends you have to stop doing certain weird shit. If you really cared you'd be willing to change.
