I need advice on friendship

Hello my name is chad and ever since I can remember I always had trouble making friends. In my early childhood in elementary, and middle school i would always get picked on by everyone. I believe its partly because i was different and i really didnt have a good father figure.

In high school i had a few close friends that i hung out with and really got to know but most of the time i had trouble making other friends. I am a really shy person and iv been trying so hard to make and keep conversations with people but i just cant really keep a good interesting conversation. I think something is wrong with me because people just seem to have an easy time making friends.

I feel like im just living life by myself and i get really depressed about that. Now that im in my third year of college and i still can't establish a good connection with alot of friends i feel ill never change. I recently went in blind with 3 other roomates that i did not know anything about and i thought i could establish friendships with them but they now all hate me.

I admit i am not tough like they are and i got in several fights with them but i really try so hard to fit in. I just cant fit in with anyone and i dont know why. Maybe i have trouble with respecting others. I just dont know what i should do now that 3 of my roommates hate me and i have to live with them for 4 more months. I seem to piss people off and i dont really know how i do until they are screaming at me. I need help!
