ivory storm
I have a lot of the same views, but i believe the right person for you is out there. I don't know if i would call it soulmates, but you'll find someone who clicks with you, who loves you, and who you love in return. It can take a while, but dont be afraid of that lonliness when humanity turns its back. It gives you time to find who you are. To explore your interests and hobbies. To work on yourself. Being happy with yourself when your alone, and content with your own self care is a huge thing. (that about sums up my comfort part)
as for affection, im sure you are loved and valued, humanity definitely has a weird way of showing it. I completely understand how you feel and you are heard. Listen to some good music and drink some water, take care of yourself :)
