I just started my internship and on my 2nd week. Everything is ok but I just feel super awkward with my colleagues. During lunch, we eat outside (our team around 4-5 people) and they will chit-chat along the way and when eating. I'm a shy person and takes quite some time to get closer with someone. But I'm just damm awkward with them and feel like an outsider when they start talking and I can't seem to get involve in their conversation cus they mostly talk about work-related stuff which I don't understand. It's as if there's no difference if I was there or not. So basically I'm just listening and stayed silent.. They seldom talk to me and I have nothing to talk about:") They are also busy with their work in the office. I think the only time I interacted with them was when I have questions on the task assigned to me so I asked them for help.

I'm so stressed about thiss. Have 2 months left. Should I continue to go lunch with them or just eat alone?? If I continue to join them it's gonna be so awkward for me everyday. But if I eat alone, I'll appear to be antisocial:')

Idk what to do..
