@mookie I am kind of introvert, but have totally the opposite problem

Any time i go somewhere, try to "socialize" with people, trying to get involved in going out and activities, they walk on when i try to talk with them

Maybe your voice is quieter than you think it is. I used to get annoyed that people ignored me, but came to the conclusion I just spoke very quietly. I learned to compensate by speaking about 50% louder than I was comfortable with.

No, not a technical problem, they DO hear it and probably give some short answers but they dont stop for a talk

Someone else from their circle is more important than me helpless trying to get involved

Fuck 'em then ;-) not worth your time.

Uhm... thats exactly my problem... Im struggling to get occassions to get in contact with extroverts at all, in the hope that one of them might "adopt" me

@Laberpferd @econads No one needs to be adopted. If that’s how they act towards you, they aren’t worth your time.

No, its me who is looking to get out of my loneliness hell, my dark grey hole, and therefore trying to get "adopted" by these extrovert people who do go out and do stuff

@Laberpferd @mookie @econads as someone who has adopted an introvert to the extent I'm now married and have a kid: having a common interest helps. Especially helpful when trying to break into the convo is having some kind of expertise or experience the other party needs so they notice you. After that you're probably set.

How about a club to meet people? Something you're interested in in an organised context?

@econads

Thats my problem, in the society around me there are no specific clubs or public announcements of meetups

An example sueden.social/@Argon1001@meow.
"most events are private and only happening in small bubbles"

I dont find any local club, or online forum, mailing list etc. that is still alive where events, like bungee jumping, or divers going for a snorkeling day, et cetera are talked about

Either some extrovert would "adopt" me into their bubble, or i dont even know events

OK are you talking specifically about furries? (sorry I'm not sure of correct terms, I hope I'm not being offensive). Then I could see it would be much harder to connect.
Outside of that, I could suggest maybe a course at the Volks Hoch Schule or I used meetup.com before. :-/
