It sounds like you need to find somewhere irl where people like you meet in person. I'm twice your age and know very little about things like anime and cosplay, but aren't there conventions you could go to? Or Meetups? Do you have a LinkedIn profile? The new UI is awful but it has some good groups on there, and ones that help with start ups. Perhaps some of the stuff you want to do needs money or transport. Would you consider a moped? They cost less and are cheap to run. Are there animal shelters near you that you could volunteer at, and get your kitty fix? Big hugs to you DIMF. You're a good guy. Not a psychopath. Just hurting. Please hang in there and keep posting.

I'm volunteering at the library to build references just in case my financial aid application that I filled to attend college next month fails for whatever stupid reason and I need to get a job.
Somebody that I work with at my volunteer position triggered me today.
A woman that I find attractive who's into cosplay and stuff but she told me she has a boyfriend and is quitting cosplay because the boyfriend says she's getting too old for it (she's not even 30 yet!) and since hearing that from her I've been angry and depressed all day.
It doesn't help that other employees are talking about their personal lives and how they have wives and people who love them and the type of things they do like parties or events or whatever and I can't deal with hearing stuff like that the whole time while I'm sorting books or stamping or mailing things which is basically what I do.
