I have this problem too,this might be why i have such problems with dating. Like the last guy i dated,he would only call me when he wanted to show off his new car (he's had a few) or something he bought for his car. I told him i was not into material things but he still kept calling to brag about something he did to his car.
I have this problem with friends too,its hard to find friends who dont gossip,backstab,complain,and talk about celebrities' lives.
I'm curious to see what people say about this. My advice (even to myself) is not to worry about it cuz if you can be happy alone,why destroy all your progress by dating someone who doesn't fit into your world? MUCH easier said than done,i know...i still get lonely a lot cuz i don't have anyone to talk to about things that matter to me,except for on these boards
