What I can suggest is that if you want to be friends with someone, just be yourself and find a common interest with that person. All friendship starts with having a common interest.

talk about the things you like and let them say what theirs are. You won't be boring if you were able to find something to talk about to people. You can also do the question approach, people LOVE to talk about themselves and just show them that you're interested in what they are saying and put some input here and there then there's a big chance you'll gain more friends. people get bored if you only focus on yourself when talking to them.
