...but only for social acceptance. The only reason I feel the need to get a gf is so other people won't look down on me. I would be fine with just fucking escorts till I die but I feel like a loser around other people. I feel like people will see me as some kind of fucking faggot for never being in a relationship at my age.
Should I still pursue relationships or what?
If people look down on you for being single, it's because they're critical of the REASONS you're single.
In other words, you're not a fucking faggot for never being in a relationship. You're a fucking faggot and that's why you've been in a relationship. If you want respect then stop being a fucking faggot. A nice bonus is that you'll also find it easy to get into a relationship.
Grow a fucking spine. People aren't going to look down on you for being single half as much as they will for being crippling insecure and prepared to lead a girl on because you're scared of people judging you.
