Is it considered abnormal for a human to have absolutely no interest in any form of relationship? For example, friendship, colleagues, romantic partner, pets etc.

It was once considered praiseworthy, within the tradition of eremitic monasticism. Essentially, being away from others was thought to bring a hermit monk closer to God.
In general, humans are an extremely social species, as are all great apes, so having no desire for social relationships is unusual.
I feel the pull towards monasticism, maybe at some point I will live like that, but not now and maybe not in this life.
