I'm surprised by the number of people who are calling your former best friend an asshole. I don't think you are either, but we don't really know what happened here. I mean, you say she just suddenly stopped talking to you. She must have had a reason for deciding to break it off. Maybe she thought your personality and hers didn't mesh well anymore. Maybe she had real-life issues that drove her away from you. Maybe she had a whole list of completely and 100% valid reasons for breaking it off and going her own way. And we don't even know if she did try to talk to you about them, but she just couldn't get the words across right. We know that you say that her reasons were petty, but we don't know what those reasons are or if they were just petty to you.

That isn't to say that you're an asshole. I just don't think anyone's an asshole here. People drift apart. That happens, and it's okay. I just don't think that dwelling on that relationship is healthy. Focusing on how she broke things off with you will result in you will encourage you to find things that were wrong with her, rather than devote your energy to finding another circle to hang with.

And yes, I do agree with another commenter that it takes work to make friends. Lots of people online are awkward. Some people even suffer from social anxiety. It's hard for all of us to push to find people to talk to, but if it helps, a lot of folks who have the roughest time tend to find friends by going to communities where people talk about things that interest them or are relevant to them. Maybe give that a shot, and you'll find someone else to help you along. :D
