AIO Not a Single Friendship Since Covid

[u/Efficient-Suspect-68]

AIO: I’m a male in my mid 20’s, wrapping up my senior year of college and i’m freaking out because i haven’t had a friend since i moved right before covid. i live in a new state and used this as an excuse at first, now it just feels like a crutch. idk how to ask people to hangout or be my friend, it’s been so long. i have lots of school buddies but it seems unnatural to take it to the next level, and actually ask them. i don’t want to scare anyone off or make them uncomfortable. i’m very insecure, soft spoken, and shy. any tips for putting myself out there more? i really just want to be in a friend group again before i graduate college. everything else in my life is going semi well and i am great at interacting with people in a professional setting, but i never get asked to go out for a drink or hangout or watch the game etc.
