Is it normal to feel alone when you have everyone around you?

>I feel like now I have a whole in my life
You're probably like 18 and you live the "perfect" life. The fuck you're talking about having a hole in your life. If your issue is connecting with people then find out how you can do that and then do it.

maybe you need a new hobby, also you worked for those grades and that money, you deserve them. Lately I've randomly felt alone while talking to the closest of friends.

I used to be like this either, i know something was bothering me, but one day i tought about confronting it and seeing the hole i had, i tried really hard with relationships and love in general to just keep failing, honestly i think i feel a lot more worse now that i know i have that hole and cant fill it at all.

I can relate to what you said OP.
from an external perspective it actually sounds like you're life is pretty well in order.
I think you have a good perspective on finding relationships, the sense of wanting something actually feeds into a sense of 'something's missing'.
really no one is perfectly happy and the expectation that that's an achievable goal is somewhat unrealistic.
My two cents is that part of it relates to the sense of 'anomie' thats systemic to our culture that tends to give people little direction towards finding meaningful expression.
expecting someone else to solve all your problems is unrealistic, relationships/codependency create as many problems as they solve, perhaps just different ones.

don't be so hard on yourself dude, you're going good, you just need to cultivate some perspective on it.

I feel almost exactly the same. About to graduate from University with a great GPA, but I feel isolated and alone. I have a great, small group of friends, but I'm starting to realize that I crave intimacy.

The worst part is that I've become infatuated with my friend's girlfriend. She's definitely my type, but I understand that these feelings are probably due to the fact we interact all the time.

STOP DOING DRUGS
psychadelics in particular fuck with your head and although some people see them as "MIND EXPANDING" or whatever the fact is they are usually terrible for your mindstate...

I'm feeling you right now

I'm sitting in the bathroom and just feeling miserable about myself. Something's missing, but it's like having everything. I don't want a gf because I don't have the time or motivation to get and maintain one, but I'm sure it's my biology screaming at me "mate you fool"

This is exactly how I feel.

I have good grades, go to a good school, am upper middle class, have a fair amount of friends (and am not socially retarded), but don't feel particularly close with anybody. Nobody outside of my family has ever really loved me, and that's a shitty feeling.
