I know it's not direct contact, but you can talk here.
I miss people a lot of the time too, until I get into contact with some for very long.
You're gonna have to do the obvious thing here, make new friends. It is not easy, but it's worth it eventually. I've got my few friends and I love them dearly but a lot of the time I can't even stand them. It's just that people confound me and I accept it, that they will do so
