Hi cloud2314, well in terms of people caring for you.........welcome to PC!!!
It's a great community here and lots of caring people, stick around with us and you are going to find people caring about you and what you're going through!!!
And IRL..........well I'm wondering if it's the depression that's stopping you from making some of those connections. It can be really hard make/feel connections when you're feeling depressed. It doesn't mean you're boring, it doesn't mean you're worthless, it doesn't mean you're not likable it more means that it's "standing in your way".

And you know maybe the kind of people you're hanging out with/would like to hang out with aren't helping either..........if they're only really going to be interested in you if you were to be "outgoing and charismatic" then I'm not really sure they're the kind of people you should need/want to be with anyway. Maybe it's a lot less about you but much more about them. Perhaps worth trying to focus in on less but more genuine, caring people???

And when you say........."I try to be pretty, and funny, and to step out of my comfort zone, but at the end of the day I’m still invisible. After all that trying".........sounds like you're doing that to get noticed, to feel you matter.........???
Well you matter anyway, and people should like you for who you are!!! A little more focus on yourself, hey??? And finding/trying/doing things you enjoy for you. And if you like read some good books, watch some movies.........that does not make you boring.!! Maybe you can even eventually hook up with people who share those interests, who like that about you. Just try to be "true to yourself" and feel comfortable being you, hey?? Because there's nothing wrong with you.
And depression..........well we're here for you on that (and anything else!! )
Again, welcome to PC!!!!
