I can't get close to people. I can't handle people being nice to me. When someone is truly nice to me it's too intense I feel like I'm being lit on fire. I have a lot of tier 2 friends, people do like me, but I haven't had a close friend since I was 12. I'm not even that close to my brother. I've never had a boyfriend. I'm pretty good at being on my own at this point, but I still do wish I could love like other people do.
Any idea what is wrong with me? Any idea how I can fix it?

You're an introvert. Very shy. Interactions with other people seem to scare you if they head towards the wrong direction.
How to change it?
You have to face your fears.
Yeah, facing your fears is the most cliche' answer there is, and the most common one in 4chan, but it is true.
Face your fears OP.
But when I mean face your fears I mean overcome them, and not be a fool.
For example: fear of heights: "I'M GONNA JUMP OFF A BRIDGE TO OVERCOME MY FEAR OF HEIGHTS!" instead of rather simply: riding a tall roller coaster.

or bungee jump a bridge to overcome the fear of heights
Fear of intimacy maybe
