How to make friends??

yo helo i am hella new at actually having an account so i don’t know how this thing works, apokogies for any mistakes imake.
anyways i have an extreme problem and it is being LONELY. i don’t know how to make friends and whenever i do we talk for two days and never speak again, prob cause either i lose things to say or one of us becomes uninterested. i need like extra tips on this or else i might brainwash someone and kidnap them into being my best friend. I’ve also decided to try making friends on this site!! dk how to interact a lot tho, i can’t really strike a convo （￣へ￣）. anyways sorry for the cringe lol, thanks for listening to my ted talk
