I struggle to build deeper connections with other people?

I do. I don’t know why. I’ve been isolating myself a lot, especially recently, even though I’m extroverted and I love other people.

I can connect with other people, that’s easy, but that’s where it ends. I’ll never have close friends when I can’t befriend anyone at all! I don’t find it hard to make friends, but… despite limitless compassion, I can’t seem to form a connection beyond “acquaintance”, for one reason or another.

I haven’t had even a light friendship since I was 14, aka… way too many years without connection.

I’m aromantic, but even if I wasn’t, I would never have a partner, ‘cause of many reasons. It’s kind of agonizing and everything is grey.

Sorry if this post seems a bit self-centered, though.
