I go to work to provide a service for which I am paid. I would not want someone to mother me or become that friendly with me at my place of employment. I am sorry you are having such a difficult time. Perhaps try finding some new hobbies or volunteer... best of luck to you.

I know I sound a little bit strange. But when you work with people for 8 hours a day and for many years, it does become a second family to you. Actually you see them more than your own family. I think it is normal to miss someone. I never realized that myself when I worked there as like you said I was there for a paycheck and nothing else. But you do develop some kind of relationship with coworkers that you work with all day.
