is anybody else nearing the end of their teenage without experiencing love of any kind

Question

I feel completely isolated in this experience of never having known love or genuine validation.
Like i try to convince myself that lovability goes deeper than physical appearance, but it feels like a big fat lie .
my looks are the primary barrier i feel like.
the weight of feeling inherently 'unlovable' just grows heavier by the day.
i'm at a point where i wonder if i should just surrender to this as my truth and stop hoping for something that feels impossible.
everybody around me is involved in some type of relationship or crush and i be feeling so lonely on some days. plus this is the prime age to make mistakes and learn and grow and i feel like when i'll look back i'll have zero memories.
anybody else feel like me?
