I went to a Spn con and had the same experience anon - well, I met a few more people than you. But in the end I realised they really weren't the kind of people I wanted to be friends with (I don't meant to be insulting towards them in any way, they were all lovely, but we just weren't on the same wavelength and liking Spn was about the only thing we had in common).

Maybe try something less specific if you're looking to make new friends? Like a bookclub or beginner's sporting group in your city?

A friend talked me into going to two SPN cons with her, and... yeah. Tiny super-specific ones really aren't my thing, and I didn't really have a good time. OP might try going to a bigger con, with more varied interests and more attendees and therefore a bigger pool of potential friends? In which maybe you can go to panels about specific fandoms that are fan-run and focus more on the fandom itself... instead of panels that are little more than an excuse to fawn over actors that haven't been in an episode in five years/don't watch the show anyway.

*cough*

(If every SPN con were just an eternal karaoke, I think that would be one thing... but they seem so stale now. There's not a single question that is ever addressed at an actor that they haven't already answered seventy times.)
