It seems like there is always that one loudmouth that hogs the entire conversation most of the time, ugh!
They're so annoying! I don't think that people are judging you as much as you think they are. Even if they really are, ignore them. People like that aren't worth talking to or caring about. Try to open up more and talk to people. If you come across as being to aloof, then maybe some people will assume that you don't like them and avoid you because of that.
You need to prove to them that you're not unfriendly unfortunately. Try asking people questions, compliment others, try to make small talk, and try to smile at other people. It's hard, but you can do it if I can! And that's great that you are proud of the way that you look btw-  And definitely try to talk to other people first. Don't wait for someone to approach you first. As I said before, look for another shy or quiet person to talk to.

Thanks. I should go out and try all these suggestions. I keep thinking about things without doing anything. I'll stop this. I'm looking forward for one meeting next week, where there will be an interesting activity. Hopefully it goes well
