It's rarely when I go out but if I did go out don't be alone "should have someone with me just to company me even if we didn't talk to each other" but when I be at home or work, I'm often be by myself, don't know why.

there is an old saying that goes like this "you have to be a friend to make a friend" ( i do hope i'm phrasing that correctly).
you have to break out of your comfort zone in order to meet new people, everyone is nervous a lil bit meeting someone new, even people with lots of friends and experience.
whenever we do something that we are not used to or "new" at..it is very uncomfortable at first..then once we get used to it..it becomes a lot easier.
yrs ago i used to do door to door sales & one of the things this taught me was how to deal with rejection..the customer's weren't rejecting me personally when they didn't buy something..they were rejecting the product..once i understood that it became easy to talk to total strangers.
another thing i learned( because i ran sales offices as well) was the art of public speaking...imagine talking to a room full of people with all eyes on YOU!!! at first i was terrified at the thought..after a while it became easy, then i grew to love it and i became more comfortable.
hope this helps..you want to expand your comfort zone!!
