[Story] Need advice to overcome feeling lonely

I am an introverted person who takes her time to make connections. I came to a new city for college a year ago and made a friend who became my only friend here. She is also one of the best friends I've ever made and we hung out a lot before she made a boyfriend a few months ago. Now she likes to spend most of her free time with her boyfriend which is understandable but I feel left out nonetheless.

I have never been in a relationship in my life but have had casual sex. I have been in love before but it was kind of a pathetic, infeasible online thing which ended in pain.

Recently, I decided to use Tinder and try my luck since I didn't have anyone to go out with. I met a guy that I liked a lot on the first date. It was great and I thought maybe things would get better with time but the second date was not good at all and now I feel like I can never like or be liked by someone.

I feel very lonely sometimes. I find myself wishing that the guy would message me and try to form conversations but I don't think he is interested any more since we didn't improve on whatever connection we had made. I also wish my friend would go some place with me (like we used to) but she also appears to be uninterested. I want more control of my feelings but I just feel sad and unwanted. I wish I stopped feeling so dependent on how others behaved with me and shifted focus to something important like my education.

tldr; my only friend likes to spend most of her time with boyfriend. second date with tinder guy that I thought I liked didn't turn out to be good. I feel lonely and sad and need advice to not let others affect how I feel.
