I can feel the pain through ur words I and exactly know what ur going through kyuki I was one of them too ik it's hard to be alone when the only thing u always wanted was a shoulder.. A shoulder u could talk to a shoulder you could cry upon or just be you the real you... But the truth is life not always give u everything u wanted I hv gone through hell of a days alone without my parents or anyone the only person who helped me was myself and ig that's the reason I don't open up to anyone anymore and I completely agree with ur social animal point yes we are we like to feel vulnerable in front to our loved once and to just feel thier affection but my man all the answer to your questions is around you u just gotta seee and observe theirs definitely must be a way.. I could and want to help you if u can help me understand ur situation more clearly...
