Keeping Friendships is Hard For Me

Please, I want to understand if this is normal. I come off as a very lively and fun person to be with. When I’m in public, I can connect and crack jokes easily with people I just met, and very soon, we become close. This is something I’ve noticed since my primary school days—I can connect with people easily, even if we’re just meeting for the first time. But I then noticed that keeping friendships is not easy. I can be close with someone, but after a while, we start to drift apart. This has been happening to the extent that now, I am alone.

I have nobody in my corner, and it feels so hard going through life as a young, lonely guy. I want to change this, but I don’t know how. I know a lot of people, but I don’t have friends. How do I keep quality people around me? Because when I have business ideas or just want to talk, I have no one to open up to—well, except maybe my siblings. And I don’t want to be vulnerable with someone, only for them to walk out of my life the next day with my secrets in their head. I’m just so confused. Please help.
