This is related to my needing friends post, so I thought I should elaborate,
So last year when I was a first year student, there was people in a club I met who tried to befriend me and I got somewhat acquinated with them. However, I was suffering from anxiety and OCD and as a result, wasn’t that social as I could have been and ther was one time they tried to include me in a gathering they had and it ended awkwardly but I did have some decent interactions with them at times. This year, I don’t see them much due to being in different departments but they are friends of a good friend of mine and I’ve decided to try and branch out and be more social. I thought one guy in this group was interested in something I like and started a convo online, but he said, “I don’t have anything interesting to say on this topic” after a bit and it ended there. I had a sort of long convo with anothe guy about shared interest. I tried to start another with this guy but no response, which was like two weeks ago. Anyway, there are two others who do actively engage with me and seem interested but they aren’t receptive to my FB messages, which I guess could be due to the site. So I was wondering, should I try and be friends with them, like ask the latter two for whatsapp as they are mutual friends to a good friend of mine or should I leave and branch out?
