Does anyone else feel lonely?

I'm a sixth former and I don't have a boyfriend. I know it's not the end of the world but sometimes I feel lonely and I don't know what to do about it. I don't want to rush getting myself into relationship just out of desperation, because I would rather stay committed to one person and the idea of saying '' love yous' to different people is not my thing. I wasn't too bothered about getting a boyfriend in high school but even at that time, being single was never a problem for me. But now that I'm older I'm envious of my friends and there are moments in life where I think it would be nice to have someone alongside me doing this activity or having someone to chill with at home or getting a lift. Just the little things in life, I'm not asking for big fancy dates or expensive gifts. I do want to focus on my career as I have high aspirations but at the same time I don't know if this "loneliness" is going to hold me back or make me "miserable", which is something I don't want. I want to find a way to overcome this and I know that I will find a long term partner at some point I just don't know when and how and who and waiting in anticipation isn't healthy. Does anyone have any advice they can offer?

I think might be a good idea to seek some help and advice. Let me suggest, you look up a good Hypnotherapist on Hypnotherapy Directory (Google it and will be first few results) and ask for a 20-30 minute free consultation. They will likely tell you what they think etc and then if you think can work for you then get a full proper session. Can work.
Do you think you could be "Neurodivergent" ?. That can cause things like social anxiety etc etc etc resulting in loneliness.
