It’s very exhausting to be the lone wolf type

I’m extremely selective with my friendships and I always have been. I value the deep connections that are based on trust and mutual respect and understanding and emotional connection. And being able to think alike and just have conversations that feel right and last for hours. I miss having that in my life terribly. I only have 1 friend to talk with but he lives in the UK and cares for his elderly mom so he’s limited with his time. I can handle just having my own company just fine. I’m not a codependent person but I truly miss having someone to have that deep closeness with that is so hard to find.

You know what..let's not frame ourselves into the boxes of who we are, this archetype or that. There are plenty of archetypes and we can today be this and tomorrow be that.
There are plenty of archetypes that we can change into every given moment. That doesn't mean we are betraying our core values, it means that we are living in flow with life and being flexible. What I mean is, I have seen that in myself how, the moment I asign myself such a title "lone wolf" -and believe me I am a wolf if nothing else- that moment I am closing myself off of the possibilities.
Yes you are a lone wolf and much more than that. Maybe you are also a butterfly some other days. A dolphin, an osprey ...
