Life is okay but I feel disconnected
So to give some background I'm a 22M who is at a point in my life where I need to start trying to find a career path and I'm stuck at a dead end job but I don't hate it. I think this may be the root of my problem but I feel alone, I have a small number of friends but I interact with them a few times a month maybe but nothing too deep, I have no girlfriend, and get no attention in that respect, so I think my problem is that while I have a decent amount of human interaction, I lack deep connections with people, I don't feel really seen or appreciated by anybody if that makes sense.
When Im alone I can no longer enjoy my own company and just sit with my thoughts without feeling alone or sad, like I'm worthless. The friends I do have it is usually me initiating the plans, or calling them, or texting them, or starting conversations about them. To give a few examples, a friend/acquittance from highschool that I reconnected with a few months ago have been hanging out and we can talk about sports for hours but I always have to be the one to initiate plans and if I back off a few weeks go by and there is nothing.
Then this is the one that really stings, I started working with this person about 7 months and a few weeks go by and we hangout with a few other coworkers a few times just to drink and mess around and then I start to want to hangout with this guy more and become better friends. He helps me out with a few things over the course of the next few months and I get to know him better but we haven't exactly hit it off and again it feels like I'm always the one to have to ask him to hangout or text him. With him though it's even more frustrating because I see him often because we work together and we will chat a little here and there and he will sometimes toss around the idea of grabbing drinks or hanging out and then doesn't follow through on those plans or firmly invites me. To give him a little more grace, he is really busy besides working full time he is going to school full time but It still leaves me feeling like I'm not interesting enough. Any advice or feedback would be appreciated. I even started my first ever therapy session.
