Some really sound advice on here (except the one about cocaine ofc).

As many others have described, find a companion/friend first.

Also, work on yourself. I don't mean work out for your muscle tone, I mean work on being happy in yourself. Figure out where your anxieties and hang ups are, and work on those. That mindset of self-awareness and working on being the best version of you can help you in your relationships. It helps with building trust because you're not allowing insecurities to impact your behaviour.
