I don't mean to vent, and I'm not even sure if this is the right forum since I'm new here.
I'm 19 and honestly have no idea how to talk to women. I've been isolating myself in my room a lot lately and feel pretty lonely.
I don't think I'm that ugly or anything. I know I don't have a bad personality. I can easily talk to others, even though I don't know them. I'm pretty easy to talk to, and I can talk a lot. I'm not arrogant or annoying. I am average height, 1.84cm, I have a pretty decent physique, good posture, my only flaw (I can really see) is my eyes, they're far apart, but I am not that insecure about that or even about anything. I do have a positive canthal tilt, decent-good jawline.
I've only had one girlfriend, and that relationship lasted around 1.5–2 years. Back when I used to go out more, I also kissed a few girls. I don't think I'm ugly, and I don't think I have a bad personality either. I can easily talk to other guys, make new contacts, and people generally find me easy to talk to.
The only issue I really have is with women. I struggle to make eye contact, quickly run out of things to say, and conversations become awkward. It doesn't even matter if I find the girl attractive or not, it's the same with female friends/classmates as well.
About 1.5 years ago, I lost my friend group. Since then, I've been feeling pretty low and have isolated myself more and more. I feel like my social skills are getting worse because I barely meet new people anymore.
I quit school a while ago, and the few friends I had there lived far away. My previous job also didn't involve much social interaction, and I recently had to quit my new job because I moved.
Because I don't go out much anymore, I find it hard to make new friends or meet women. I've tried talking to girls through DMs, but after the usual small talk, I never know what to say next. One time, a guy I knew even took a screenshot of my DM and posted it on his story, which was pretty embarrassing and made me stop trying, haven't tried since.
I know that losses happen and that things will eventually get better. I'm not looking for hate. I'm not insecure. I'm simply looking for advice on how to make new friends and how to approach women, because right now I just don't know where to start.
