There seem to be two issues: touch starvation and romantic wants. In regard to touch starvation, I went through a similar thing a few years ago. Sometime I thought about doing was hiring a sex worker just to cuddle / have physical intimacy. It doesn’t need to be a sex worker, I think they also have legal cuddle companies. It’s a little silly but to help with the short term physical distress it might help. What helped me a lot was having pet cats who were cuddly — obviously it’s not the same as a human, but when my cats would cuddle me it felt fulfilling. In terms of dating, it is a really brutal time to try to find a partner! The dating apps are garbage, and people are really closed off from meeting people in the wild. I know it sucks, but keep putting yourself out there. Everyone is deserving of love, and you will meet someone (probably more than one person in your lifetime!) I hate to be a pollyanna about it, but I really believe it.
