How do I hang out with people
So I'm new to a town and theres absolutely nothing to do at my house. I can only watch tv, or go on the computer. I don't have any tv/computer games.. I don't have a pool, I don't have any crafts.. my computer doesn't have webcam, and I don't have any other cool things to be able to entertain someone else.
So in my life I've rarely ever invited people to my house cause I have no idea what to do! I feel awkward at the idea of being a host.. but I have great time at other people's houses. How can I learn to be better at just hanging out with people? I'm very sociable but I don't have a lot of experience like going to friends houses or anything.. which makes me socially inept. it sucks cause when I look back I dont have experiences of doing fun crazy things with friends really... but I want to change it now, so I don't miss out on this aspect of childhood
Can you give me ideas on things to do at my house please? I mean I have a bonfire pit but we've never used it.. when you have a bonfire party what happens? and I dont even know who to invite cause this summer I've only hung out with someone once. I invited her but she hasnt invited me for anything since.. like I dont get why people dont make an effort to invite the new girl into their world.. its harder to like just try and jump in like that. especially since its a small town. or am i supposed to do that? how do i get confidence to do that? who do I pick as friends?
Its really hot outside so nobody's really out during the day, too. So this summer I've pretty much been cooped up in my house all the time. And most summers in my life have been like that.. is that pathetic or its semi-normal?
Also can you give me ideas on things to do outside the house, aside from seeing movies? And with inviting people do I say they should invite one of their friends as well? Also when you say you're inviting someone does that mean you have to provide transport? Or I should just be like.. wanna hang out at ___. How do I ask someone to hang out? Even articles on this can help..
Thanks so much if you can help! I'm 16 btw

This question should be about "Friendship is a beautiful thing that can get messy sometimes."

A lot of parties really just rely on people getting together and chatting. Make sure to provide snacks.
Inviting someone over shouldn't mean that you have to provide transport, but in practice, if you live far away from your friends and have no public transport in your area, you might just have to.
It is up to you whether you want to invite your friends' friends. If you want to meet them, go for it. Just make sure you have the capacity to entertain all the people you invite. Make sure that no one is left out.
When it comes to activities, improvise.
Browsing the internet with friends can be fun. There's bound to be something interesting that you always wanted to show your friends. Watch videos together, laugh together, start conversations and you're set.
Board games can be fun too. A pack of cards goes a long way. Twister tends to be popular too. If you can't get any of those, improvise by making your own.
