How do I tell my boyfriend that I have no friends?

Yes, it's another "I'm a loser I have no friends thread" I'm sorry, please bear with me and any advice you can give will be greatly appreciated.

I have been at home nearly three weeks now and am very lonely. I never managed to make many friends at school, and they were only really acquaintances, who I saw rarely outside school. I never get invited out by them anymore. I know that I could make an effort to contact them, but I feel that if they haven’t asked me, then they aren’t bothered about me anymore. I even saw a few of them while I was at work the other day (where I have also been unable to make any friends who I see outside of work, I am considering applying for a new job in order to make more friends) and they spoke to me for a bit, asking if I was going to someone’s house. I replied that I wouldn’t be able to get there and they just said “oh, well.. see you around.” They've made it pretty obvious that they don’t want to see me and I’ve tried to re connect with them in the past and failed. I feel it would be embarrassing to try again so I don’t bother. I don't know how to make new friends, it was hard enough when I was living in halls and there aren’t that many places to meet people of my age around where I live. I’ve always been a very quiet, reserved person, and I find it difficult to talk to people, especially if I don’t know them well.

I have no idea how to tell this to my boyfriend. I have known him since October but we have only been going out a month or so, and I stayed at his place last week (we live pretty far apart, so I won’t get to see him much until term starts). He always seems to be going out with friends but I can’t reply when he asks because I don’t have any. I’m embarrassed to tell him, but he’s going to find out if he comes to visit, anyway. I have some good friends at Uni, but none at home. I can feel myself slipping back into depression, which I have suffered from for a year or so and it really affected me during my exams. I don’t really have anyone to talk about his to other than my parents and my boyfriend, but I don’t want to burden anyone with my problems. For that reason, I’m having trouble keeping instant messaging conversations going with him, which is really the only way we communicate at the moment, other than the odd text . I don’t really enjoy using MSN, because I usually get distracted and end conversations, which seems really rude. I hate talking on the phone, so there aren’t many ways we can keep in contact, even though I really miss him.

I enjoyed my first year at Uni, even though it was very hard, both academically and emotionally. Now, I hate being alone, and it’s getting me down.

that is literally the dumbest thing I‘ve heard. „why didn‘t you just made friends during school?“, „how can u grow up in an area and not made any friends?“. It’s the same if you told someone that you’re sad and they would say „Oh, then just don‘t be.“ Some people just can‘t make friends that easily whether they shy or have social anxiety or depression. I would try more to understand the situation or the things people are going thru. Sorry but this made me angry.
