I need help making friends

My husband's job has taken me far away from my friends and family and I really miss having good friends. I find it very hard to click with women though and I feel like they mostly don't like me which makes me insecure and further compounds the problem. You know those women who are witty and likeable? I want to be like that haha I'm going to an event tonight and need help haha! Any help would be appreciated :)
