I'm wondering if you might feel a little less anxious about boyfriends if you explored alternate ways of addressing your loneliness. It's generally not a great idea to get into relationships out of desperation, and extreme loneliness can be a source of desperation. Good relationships are about two people enjoying each other but still functioning as independent people. I'd try to work on your loneliness by enjoying time with friends, making new friends, trying new activities.
As for "making out"- take it slowly, and do what feels comfortable to you. Kissing and hugging and so forth are your decisions. You can say "no" if you're not ready to handle something. It's okay to want to do something one day but not the next- you might be tired or upset and just not feel up to it. Of course, be responsible about anything that is at the level of sexual contact, and use protection. I don't recommend sexual activity at your age, but do be responsible in what you do.
