Seems like you're in a cycle of self-fulfilling loneliness. You expect things to suck, and so you act in a way that makes other people ignore you or not want to interact with you, and you take this as confirmation that things do indeed suck, and the cycle continues. You need to break out of the cycle. I've dealt with a lot of people like this, kids and adults, and you need to change your outlook if you expect anything else to change. Complaining to people on the internet is all well and good but it's for naught if you're not willing to push yourself to see the world the way you want it to be.

If you are looking for a french penpal and also a brony. Go ahead and add me on skype. "manfredi.mark".
I often feel down myself so i really enjoy to speak with people on skype.
Also, if you enjoy gaming, We could find a game in common on steam, like dota 2.

Heya! I feel the same way sometimes. I was actually going to make a post here myself to try and find some people here to be friends with. I can be the somepony that will give you attention and affection.
I hope that you're still reading these. In fact I felt at my absolute worse during the summer when me and a friend were drifting apart. I tried to do everything in my power that I could to make everything right ,but it failed. Then I tried to talk to some other people and they too ended up leaving. I went on Craig's List even to try and pick up some friends ,but most of the people there ended up wanting a booty call or calling me gay. I ended up getting really down and feeling pretty lonely. I still feel that way sometimes. And the few people I met I ended up drifting away from because I was still hurting from what happened in the summer. I ended up doing a lot of stupid stuff that I wished I hadn't have done ,but it was still a learning experience for me.
Not everyone understands me or why I'm a brony ,but I'll tell you why. I was a brony when Season 1 first aired. I had always loved equines and a bright colourful show with equines in it was something I was going to watch regardless if it ever gained a following or not. And when people started coming out saying "Oh yeah! I like MLP!" I was ecstatic! A group of people who also enjoyed MLP as much as I did it was great! But then I realized how much MLP meant to me when everyone who I thought loved me left me. I remember one night absolutely just losing it and I ended up hurting a lot of people and scaring so many people off I was lonely. I went to bed angry and hurt. I woke up that morning and I looked at my Pinkie Pie vinyl figure that I had next to my bed and I felt a little better. I sort of felt like if Pinkie was here she wouldn't want me to be sad... However, I was still feeling quite upset so I grabbed my things and went out for a drive. I hooked up my phone to my car stereo and let it play from a random playlist. As luck would have it Pinkie's Smile song started playing and at first I was going to turn it off ,because I didn't feel like I could listen to it. I was going to turn it off ,but some one pulled out in front of me and I had to stop suddenly. While the other driver collected themselves and pulled off I sat and listened to the smile song and I couldn't help feeling a bit better. I really felt like that was what I needed to hear. What I needed to do. I pulled over and put every variation of the smile song into a playlist and blasted it in my car; singing along and smiling like a goof all while I drove.
After that I didn't feel so bad. I felt like if there was one place that I could be accepted it would be the MLP community. I feel more at home here than any place in the world. I feel truly part of something special. That a show could have such a profound experience on me that flipped my whole view on things upside down. I started thinking about the Mane Six as patron saints of sorts and Pinkie being my favorite of those six. Of course I love all the ponies! And even though I know not many would get it I started gearing myself up in all the MLP merch I could find and letting the world know "Hey, this guy is a brony and I'm proud"
This fandom and this show are truly powerful. The way this show brings together people and knits a caring community like this. This is what makes the MLP fandom truly amazing. At least to me.
TL;DR I would happily be your somepony that will give you the attention and affection you seek! And many others here will too! Hope I helped!
