... Or useful. Because I entered badoo and it ask for an expensive fee just to talk with anyone.

So you spend your entire day either working/studying or staring at a blank wall?

Btw, it doesn't really matter if you do something actually interesting, it's the attitude that counts. I've tried doing the same thing/going to the same event with different people, some very positive and outgoing, and some very negative, and the experience has been very very different.

If your attitude is "I'm not interesting, and I don't do anything interesting" then guess what, you won't be interesting to anyone around you. Btw, going to the pub for a beer can be very interesting. Walking somewhere can be interesting.

Exactly this. YOU can make things interesting. It really depends on the attitude.

Then what am I supposed to do? Every time I go to walk alone or eat alone guess what I feel worse than being in my room. And it's been for years now. Trust me when I'm telling you this: is not Interesting.

Then you need some friends. On the how to acquire one, there are a few ways. One of the most effective outside of school or work is to join some club, some class or some sport activity. For instance, I joined a latin dance class lately (salsa, bachata) and I've met lots of very friendly people. Every Friday they also organize a night out to some local clubs to dance, and there you can meet lots of other people with a similar interest. It's just an example though, pick something interesting, join a group of people etc.

You just need to be proactive. Staying all day in your room commiserating yourself is definitely not sexy

Unfortunately there's no activity about the things I like. Also I'm broke.
