Is it normal to feel like the only thing thats missing is a girlfirend?

I'm not saying this because I only want her to just play the role as the “girlfriend”. If I had a girlfriend right now i’d view her as something more than just a girlfriend. Nowadays I get this occasional feeling of loneliness and the only way I feel love is through Tv shows and imagination. Never felt any real love before which is probably why I feel lonely. That and having to listen to people talk about their relationships.

But anyways that's just my story. Feel free to tell yours if u like

Loneliness is normal, and for a lot of people there is the reality of recognizing you don’t get to have a relationship and you miss out on that happiness that comes in that kind of moment. Feeling lonely is normal, craving a romantic relationship and having that level of closeness with someone — especially when you’re consuming media that constantly shows you this relationship — is also normal.

I recall going through the same situation a number of years ago, probably 22 years ago a relationship it ended, and I felt like there was a pretty big gap in my life. Eventually, I realized I needed to be happy in my current state in order to meet somebody new, and that is exactly how it worked.
