I'm too quiet and therefore boring?

Try, little by little, to come out of your shell. I know because last year I was exactly like you. I thought that everyone had close friends except for me. But I decided that I wasn't going to let my teenage years slip away so I decided to just talk and say whatever to anyone. It was hard, and I'm still kinda shy around people, but just go up to a friend and start a conversation about anything- the weather, a band, whatever you want. Chances are, they'll see you reaching out to them and you'll automatically become closer. It doesn't matter if you stumble on your words occasionally. Brush it off, and laugh about it. And about the favors- show people that they can't just use you. Pretend to be confident even if you don't feel it, and it'll come naturally.
