It’s not crazy at all. I can empathize but have realized I may be called to singleness.

Your still young. You might find that person in the future.
Just give yourself credit for coping now. And do stress

Color in adult coloring book, etc. Try meet up. Maybe
you will find a friend or boyfriend there.

It doesn't sound crazy at all. I too, have issues with isolating myself. I am friendly at work, but end up having lots of hobbies that do not require others. So I end up staying home a lot. I am trying not to do that because I do get lonely and wish for others, but know that I have done it to myself
