Are you good at making friends?

In person, absolutely not, I'm terrible at it. Socially awkward and got general and social anxiety disorders. Online? Absolutely, I can chat with anyone!
 
Nope, not one bit. I have had 0 friends for a year or two now. Most, if not all, friends I've made originally came to me. I rarely open up to those I'm not very familiar with. Call me socially anxious, shy, anti-social, stuck up, if you will.
 
Well, no. But that's because I don't consider people to be a friend that quickly. I don't have a problem talking to people in person, but are they friends? No. And frankly, I feel like I have enough friends (a group of people that I met as a whole about 16 years ago), so I don't feel the need to get to know someone better.

Then, there is also the 'problem' that people I don't already know very well, are usually not interesting enough for me to be willing talk to by text message / phone or to invite them over / hang out with, so it's quite near impossible for people to become a friend of mine. :P
 
I am very careful with the types of friends that I make. I rarely keep in touch, and making friends has been one of the activities that I don't find funny. Just having one or two friends is much more okay for me as far as I am concerned.
