I don't know how to make friends

...See more Hey. I'm a second year community college student and I haven't had friends since I left high school. And even the friends I had in my final years in high school were more almost more acquaintances than anything else - like, we almost never hung out outside of school; I was almost a peripheral member of the friend group. In high school, I joined a youth group. I liked the people there, they liked me. They where always excited to see me and I was always excited to see them. But I never knew what to do to make these relationships outside meeting once a month and I didn't want to cross boundaries. People gave me their numbers and I never texted them because I was afraid of being irritating. I flat-out do not know how to make relationships. It's depressing and I'm afraid I'm never going to grow out of it. How do you all deal with the fear of not being good enough and just talking and building relationships with people? I never seem to know how to hold conversations with people except the ones I'm closest too. :-/ I feel like I'm decaying.
