Anyone else too incompetent to even make friends online?

I spend all day on the internet and 4chan is the only place I post because it's anonymous and I can just disappear if things get stressful. I've never kept an online friendship for more than a week because I just run out of things to say.

I think one of the problems in my case is that I'm such an extreme shut-in I can't really relate to anyone and the disparity in our lives quickly turns into a suffocating presence. I'm pretty good socially so I can empathise with people who have active, busy lifestyles with a wide circle of friends to a point but that only takes you so far.

Whenever I add someone I can never work up the courage to message them first. I spend all day sitting in front of the computer stressing/thinking about what I'll do if they do end up messaging me. It always ends with either them blocking me or simply never messaging me again.

Yes, I have the same, I just can't talk with anyone outside of boards. I start feeling like I owe them something. And if they're ugly - they want to meet IRL or ask for nudes and stuff like that, start pressing on me and I hate when people press on me.

I'm at the one week mark of my latest attempt and I feel this is exactly where I am. I want to talk to my friend but I have nothing to say so I always say boring things, I even get bored myself reading and writing them. I think I'm going to stop burdening them and cut contact and go back to not having friends as it should be.

Yeah, most of the time I just argue with people online because I'm kind of afraid of making friends with people online. I usually add them on Skype, talk to them, then delete the skype account after 2 days.

I'm incapable of even the most simple interactions with anyone in video games. Especially if they are friendly or talkative with the other people in the game. I get so angry at being unable to co-operate or be friends/normal people like them that I just become aggressive and spend the whole game doing the opposite of what they ask me to do and basically become the enemy of the team until I get myself reported (dota) or kicked/banned in csgo.
I guess there's something of a selfish/only child element to it too where I refuse to take orders from any of the people that assert themselves as a sort of leader or give advice in the games. Don't think I've met anyone else who does this shit. Maximum selfish autism.

Try tumblr. There's a reasonably sized 4chan base that use the site, and most of the people are pretty friendly.
>>
>>27106218
I've tried multiple times and it never works out.

Every time I either can't relate to them or offend them or my personality is too repulsive
>>
Used to find it really easy to make friends online when I was younger, now after losing a lot of them because we stopped talking or because of random bullshit... it's hard. I find it hard to even strike up conversation with people on steam, I feel like they all hate me, despite their assurances that they don't. Sometimes I wish I could just melt away and disappear so I'd never have to interact with them again.

I have no social life at all too so I'm scared that would just bore them into not wanting to speak to me.

literally the closest thing I've had to friends online is a bunch of dutch people on this old MMO I used to play, even then they would ask why I was so quiet in the chat

>>
>>27109872

Not much I guess
Someone who is nice & will talk to me when I want to talk, but is okay if I don't want to.
I think a lot of people who would want to talk are really negative, and that's all they want to talk about,
The nice/honest ones are too busy with social stuff to become an honest friend with a random person.

it's hard to make friends on /r9k/

my problem is that I'm kinda screwed up, and so are a lot of people here. I can't handle another screwed up person, I want to help them and comfort them but I can't even help myself. I can't offer anything meaningful to someone who needs help.
>>
>>27110516
>>27110553

I'll give it a try. I would like to make friends. I will honestly try but I'll still be myself mostly.
>>
>>27110516
I hope he was honest, too.
I probably didn't make all that much of a difference for him, but even if it meant a little bit, it makes me feel better about it.
I do understand your cynicism, however, as I've come across some nasty, cringy and bitter robots that honestly are far too gone. Still, I don't let that stand in my way. Positivity is my juice.

Seriously doubt you'd make a bad friend, though. I've seen and been around some real scum. Not to mention, there isn't much anyone can say to me anymore that would make me outright hate, or dislike them.

>tfw no friend to help and comfort me

Even people on /r9k/ are interesting, but I'm not at all. The only qualities I can offer when it comes to friendship can other people offer better. I almost feel like real life conversations are easier because you have the extra visual and auditory aspect.

He made a thread where he posted a picture of his KIK account name, asking people to talk to him. So I did.
Personally, I prefer to use skype. It's just faster than a phone to chat on.

I don't know how to make friends online either. Even when playing multiplayer games like CSGO and DOTA it doesn't happen. I even joined WoW for a couple of months, and nobody wanted to talk with me or play with me.
