I feel the same way. I'm fine one-on-one, but if there's 3 or more, I end up being excluded. I've gone out of my way to make friends with people over the years but it hasn't worked. I'm a loner at heart, but would like a few friends, just don't know how to go about making them.

There seems to be an etherial quality about some people where they attract others to themselves like a moth to a flame, and they're the Belle of the ball. Interestingly enough, a lot of these people make no effect to even be nice to everyone that clamours to be their friend.
