Default I'm lonely

I'm lonely. I don't really fit in to normal life. I'm a weirdo. A genuine misfit. I'm this close to moving to a cave in the desert. Ok. Not really that close, but I swear it sounds appealing just because I have little interest in the normal work-spend-debt pattern of normal life. I don't even have kids and never will, and believe me, a woman without kids is a misfit indeed.

I would like to have someone to talk to. A therapist seems like someone who would want to change me or fix me and I don't think I'm broken, although feeling so isolated I suppose I could become depressed. I don't know if there are even therapists who can understand someone who doesn't fit in to normal society.

Is there someone who is not quite a therapist who would talk to me? What kind of person would that be? I feel like I need help figuring out where to go next in my life. Without a model to follow, I'm kind of at a loss forging my own path. I'm not sure what my path is, but it's definitely off the beaten track. Some kind of "life coach" rah rah rah success success success money money money person is definitely the wrong person for me.
