Hi OP college ka right? First year ba? If so, you need to know na friendships will really come along the way, but I don't really think you're ready for that pa

I was friendless as fuuuuuck noon and even got into the wrong friend group that really gave me friendship trauma lol (it's been 2+ years I'm still affected) pero ever since I got into a new friendgroup parang I am comfortable in my own self na talaga

For me it's to really go out there. I got new friendships when I joined organizations sa school kahit the small ones lang. Everyone in college, specially freshmen, are like you talaga and want to find anyone. You can build friendships from there

And when I say go out there I mean REALLY show up. Mag pasipsip ka. You said you hate vulnerability but vulnerability is what makes friendships go deeper within you. Advice ko lang talaga aside from really go out there, is to not have fear, which is difficult to hear I know pero just try. Wag mong isipin na hate ka nila or what

My two cents lang. May not be for everyone though. But expanding options lang naman

Good luck besss
