Oh, you're friends with my sister's husband? Don't worry about Gaz, she hates everyone, literally everyone. She always has, and always will. You sound lonely, though. It's not fussy or shallow, I don't think. I think we all get lonely from time to time, no matter how many people we have around us. I know how it feels to be ignored by family, and it sucks, but you just have to push on.
