play pretend.
seriously. stop being you, be someone else. look at how other people interact and pretend to be like that.
it works.

Yeah this is for sure a good situation for “fake it till you make it.”
Just say hi to everyone when you see them. Once a day talk to a different person for awhile, you will find out who is more friendly. I’m not naturally social or outgoing and I’m at at ease with that, but people can interpret it as unfriendly, so I try to communicate the way each person likes, to some extent. It may not come naturally to you but YOU ARE NOT ALONE in that. We just learned by practicing.

Also it can be good to learn to remember peoples names, some people get really offended if you forget their name 😅
