Oh man, I can relate to this so much. For various reasons, it's been hard for me to make close friends - the kinds of people you'd go out and do something fun with. I've collected plenty of casual acquaintances over the years, and I believe most of them think I'm a kind of decent person who doesn't smell like a dead fish or anything. However, I'm surrounded by people who are married and have kids, and people like that usually have no interest in expanding their social circles - especially with someone who's single. These problems are exacerbated by the pandemic and "social distancing" advisories.
I'm probably the worst possible person to offer advice for this particular problem, but I sure can empathize with your situation. I think EYT has some good tips. You can look into meetups in your area. Try different groups and activities, and try to get outside your comfort zone a little, and you might find some people you "click" with.

Course clear! You got a card.
