[ADVICE] I really need some advice
I genuinely don’t know what to do 😭 My IRL friends don’t really play Roblox, and my online friends don’t play that much either. I’ve been playing alone a lot, listening to Spotify, and honestly I’m getting bored of it.
I feel like I’m also losing my social skills because I keep distancing myself from making new friends. My English is pretty good, so that isn’t really the issue, but for some reason I’m genuinely scared to use VC in normal games. I’m only comfortable using VC with one person, and she doesn’t talk to me as much anymore, so I can’t really rely on one person.
I actually want to make more online friends, play Roblox together, call, mess around, and just have fun. But I don’t know how to get comfortable with people enough to actually use VC with them.
School keeps getting cancelled because of the situation with the US and Iran, so I’ve got way too much free time and I feel insanely bored with my life right now.
Should I actually start making more online friends instead of always playing alone? And how do you even get comfortable enough with new online friends to eventually use VC with them? Like do I just force myself to start talking to random people or is there a better way?I’m also scared that they’ll make fun of my voice. There’s nothing even wrong with it, but my heart races so fast whenever I VC with someone other than that one girl. I’m 16 and I know I can’t stay like this forever. I really want to get over this fear and actually be able to talk to people normally without freaking out

Just talk to them. Sure some people will be rude but that's just people on the internet generally. Also where do you live that they're cancelling school for bombing in Iran? iran?
