How do I deal with the fact that while I don't really enjoy other people's company I still want to cared for? Does anybody else feel this way? For example, I'm feeling lonely so I make an account with a dating site and start looking through profiles. Literally nobody interests me, I cannot see myself enjoying an evening with any of them. The only ones that I find somewhat interesting are those that I share hobbies with but everything else about them I find uninteresting, I might as well just enjoy the hobby by myself. Wtf is wrong with me?
So basically you are me.
I have 2 people I can tolerate and one will be moving soon so I will have to meet new friends. It's so difficult for me to make any new meaningful relationships.

So how do I fix this? It's making me miserable.
I have three very close friends. One's a bro who I talk about guy stuff with, another is a female-to-male trans who i discuss deep emotional shit with, and the last is a heterosexual female who i disturb the peace with because we're both introverts until we feed off of eachother's presence.
Honestly, thats all I need. This triumvirate even makes romantic relationships pale in comparison.
tl;dr keep a close circle of friends who you're joined at the hip with.

Just have the confidence to not need to be cared for---that's weakness.
