Well I can relate to you completely, and I'm not just saying that. I'm shy and seem to never make friends or just let loose and be myself. Recently, I've tried a new thing where I say screw it, if anyone is mean to me or says anything. That doesn't mean you not care, it just means you don't care what others think about your personality, just say and do what you feel like. I also have only 2 good friends and I have realized I am lucky to have these amazing people in my life. Just try to do things that make you happy and everything else will fall into place.
