How do I talk to girls? Not in the I want a girlfriend type of way, but litteraly how do I befriend women. I'm usually very talkative around my male friends cracking jokes and etc. But once a female joins the group I'm the most quiet. It's not like I have approach anxiety, I have no trouble approaching people to talk but as soon as I start talking I start to obsess over what to talk about until my mind goes blank and the conversation dies. All the people I know however do not have this problem. It's holding me back from becoming social.
You're locking up because you think that you need something specific to talk to about women. Yeah a lot of them have different interests but it's no different than talking to a guy who likes sports when you like vidya. You just have to find a common interest and then you're all set.

Ask some out. Spend time either some alone. Do your best.
It's like calc senpai you gotta do it, learning it isn't enough.

How do I get them to like me (as a person). How do I not appear as a someone girls would not like to befriend. I have basically no female friends.

You don't make them like you just like you don't make everyone else like you. You increase your chances by being intelligent, funny, kind, well-informed, but if you're falling all over yourself trying to impress someone they can usually tell and often think you're being dishonest.
