Is it normal to be lonely but unable to be connected to people?

I've been single for quite some time (8 years to be exact) and I'm really lonely.

I've had people interested in me but when I go out on a date with them, I just can't connect to them. They've been nice and we've had a lot in common but I can't feel the connection or the spark.

I thought about dating them to see if it'd happen but after multiple dates it wasn't happening and I didn't want to lead them on.

I've had some major fireworks go off for a few people over the years and some of them have claimed to return the feelings but they never followed through. Just before the closing, they pull away and make things awkward.

I'm tired of being lonely but I can't feel the special spark with the people who'd actually go through with a relationship (so far). IIN?

    Why do you need somebody? The most important & fulfilling relationship you have is the one with yourself. Happiness is wholly overrated.
