Working my way from the bottom up: Find things that make you go “oo, I like that” and don’t for a second listen to the voice that says “but will someone think I’m weird for liking that”. Your interests and style and who you are fundamentally are about YOU, not other people. Once you start openly liking the things you like, you’ll attract similar minded people, which will open the door to friendships and relationship. From there, just continue to let your instincts guide you:
If someone or something doesn’t give you the “oo, this makes me happy, I’d like to spend more time with them” feeling (even platonically) then don’t continue to put energy into it, because it will become draining. Surround yourself with people that make you like who YOU are, that see you for you and raise her up instead of tear her down. As for the men and sex: if you surround yourself with those people that make your soul happy, the romantic stuff will come naturally. Do not force that and
