I don’t talk much and it damages my social life

Hi everyone,

So basically I have a problem when it comes to socializing: I barely even talk, so people think I feel ill-at-ease and awkward most of the time, which is absolutely not the case. I mean, I talk of course, but only the basics. The truth is, most of the time I don’t know what to talk about. I think I’m not an interesting person, I don’t have any hobbies, so I rarely talk about myself.

And I’ve been told several times by different people that the fact that I barely talk made them feel like I didn’t like them or that I didn’t want to be with them, which is not the case, I’m just a quiet person.

What should I do?
