It’s as if I got nothing to provide of an actual worth to them. I feel like a boring person. Just a substitute friend when the better ones are not around.

I came to that conclusion when I saw how much fun my friends have with their other friends.

Especially I feel like that when I am in a group setting. All I can do is just silently follow around and listen to what they say.

In one-on-one I don’t really talk much, I listen more than talk.

It’s worth noting that I meet my friends only in university. So it’s not as strong friendship to begin with. Nonethelesss, I don’t think I can really progress with my friendships if I keep feeling that way.

  1. You are in a tricky situation, because you may be right. I mean, you might be wrong and it might only seem that way to you and not to them. But, you might end up in a situation after university when friend groups are smaller where you only have that type of friend who wants to talk all the time, so needs quiet friends.

    Trying to make yourself more “fun” is a loaded word, and maybe not a good thoughtspace to be in. But what you can do is remember that “interested is interesting.” If there are things in your life you are passionate about, those are good things to talk about with a friend. Your interest in those things will come across, and excite others as well.

    And if there aren’t things you are passionate about, you need to develop yourself. Read more, seek more, try more things, there has to be something out there for you.
