So there is a loneliness epidemic caused by capitalist alienation. However, I wonder if lack of material conditions also adds to this. I just keep seeing lots of my broke guy friends depressed because they can’t find a partner and it is so hard for them to meet new people. This makes me wonder if their financial situation is the main reason.

I think it's more that socialism is a prerequisite of fixing interpersonal issues on a large scale. You can't stitch the wound while the knife is still in it.
