I (17M) would say that I know how to talk to people (demonstrating interest, visual contact, body language, talking about interests,etc). But the problem is that I dont know how to turn people into friends, you see I want not only to have good conversations, but to also to constantly hangout and do stuff together. I go to the gym, I have trained with many people of my school but once I get to home there’s nothing to do with someone else. In fact I always have to start with the message “wanna workout together?” but they never text me to workout together.
Advice for this would be really helpful to me 🙏, having no friends makes my life empty

Be enthusiastic, and keep your schedule available for relationships. Never invest in someone who isn’t trying to reciprocate.
Invite people to events outside of the traditional context of your relationship to them. Bring your boxing friends out to the movies, go disc golfing with your video game friends. Invite people to your house while they do work from their computer.
Drop friends whose main activity is getting high.
