How can I be happy alone?

Hello everyone,

This has been quite a problem with me for sometime, but only now do I realize that I must do something about it.

Okay so, to begin with, I am a graduating student at an university with a major in electrical engineering. I am about 20 credit hours away from graduation, and I have a CGPA of 3.20, so I guess I'm an OK student.

I work really hard to achieve my goals, but then there's always a part of me which keeps seeking company constantly! It's like, I would pay $ 1,000,000 to someone who could teach me to be happy alone and not need anyone else to be the reason for my joy or happiness.

I don't know why, I always wish I had a good friend or someone with whom I could hang out and stuff. I am quite vulnerable to this and end up trusting people too easily. I wanna change that....

All suggestions are welcome!

TL:DNR: How can I be happy without anyone else by my side? Please help.

Thanks for reading!
