Lemme give you all a good piece of advice:
Have self confidence.
The EASIEST way to get people to hate you is to say things like "sorry I'm boring/annoying you" or "why aren't you talking to me? Oh wait, cause nobody ever wants to talk to me." It doesn't accomplish anything (what are you expecting people to do when you say that? seriously?) and it eventually just makes people stop talking to you because you're annoying. But the thing is, you weren't annoying before you started thinking you were.
Usually, when you believe something, it's true. Consider the old cliche, "If you think you're going to fail, you probably will." If you don't believe in yourself, you'll never get anywhere. If you think people hate you, then people will hate you. If you think you're annoying, you'll probably act annoying. If you think you suck at sports, you'll probably drop the ball. The latter happens to me all the time; when I'm in a good mood and don't care what people think, I'm actually decent at sports and stuff. But then as soon as someone comes up who's way better than me, I realize how lame I am and start totally sucking 'cause I lose confidence.
So really, just believe in yourself. If you think you're annoying and always apologize for it, people will definitely stop talking to you. But if you aren't quite sure if you're annoying or not, DON'T say anything, because then you actually have a chance that you aren't, in which case people will talk to you. And if it turns out you actually are annoying (it happens to the best of us) you aren't any worse off than if you had apologized, anyway.
