I didn't have a conversation. I was present at my roomate's gathering at the bar. And the next week I asked him if he was going to be there. He asked me not to meet up since his friends deemed me annoying. Normally, I wouldn't care since it was the first time I met them and I dont even know them, but its not the first time I have heard some people label me as such.
Personally, I know I have had many annoying tendencies in the past which I have had success changing, but apparently I still have much to learn and still change. And there are some tendencies that are not favorable and are still present in my character.
The best mindset is to be ready to change, and I think you have that. Just keep getting out there and paying attention to how the conversation goes. If you pay enough attention to the people around you, you'll know how not to bother them, and you'll remember what you said next time, and be able to see from a person's reaction when you're bothering them.
As for your roommate situation (I know you didn't ask for advice on this and I don't know how close you two are) I'd recommend inviting him out with some of your friends he hasn't met. If he can see you with people you're more comfortable with, and how interesting you really are, he'll be more inclined to invite you out in the future.
