I dunno. I feel like I'm a good listener and supportive, but it seems that people want me to listen to them and make them feel good, and change the subject or get bored or overwhelmed when it comes to me. I end up feeling burned out or used and distance myself. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I haven't had any friends since I've moved here, been here six years. I can't seem to get beyond the acquaintance level. Part of it may be that I don't know how to go from meeting people and hanging out in a group situation to going for coffee/happy hour or something. People seem to want to avoid me. I feel like I'm that weird kid in school that everyone reassures is ok, but has some really annoying attribute that they want to avoid and he's completely unaware that he's doing.
