Thankfully, my answer isn't nobody.

I was completely alone until high school. I've got Asperger's so that didn't help things, but therapy and finally meeting sane people in high school got me to make friends. I'm ending college now and I'm still in touch with them. Got at least three people ready to listen to my rambling.

Now my biggest worry is losing them. I doubt I could rebuild that relationship with anyone else. We've been through everything.
