That’s really interesting, I’ll look into it. I’m doing therapy for a year now and decided to ask here to see if you people could give me insights to talk to my therapist. I’ll take these to her too, thank you very much.
Comment on How do I stop wanting to be on a relationship?

Look into “avoidant attachment styles”. (And, really, attachment styles in general.)
Perhaps even look into avoidant personality disorder and/or schizoid personality disorder. (I’m not diagnosing you or anything, but what you’re talking about is something I’ve heard frequently in relation to schizoid personality disorder. I’m not quite as familiar with avoidant personality disorder, but it’s sometimes described as “a lesser kind of schizoid personality disorder.” Also, don’t confuse “schizoid” and “schizophrenia.” They’re very different things.)
This isn’t the answer you asked for, but perhaps a relationship with someone who likes their personal space as much as you do would work out. It might not be the most “traditional” sort of relationship you could find, but it might work out well.
But more to your question, the best answer that I can come up with is therapy.

I read about those you pointed out and the avoidant attachment style ticks some boxes… It’s definitely something I’ll bring up on the next session, thanks!
