I'd say it's got more to do with the fact that she wasn't able to form meaningful relationships with anyone, rather than being unwanted. Pyrrha was probably utterly swamped by fans and admirers all her life, but fans and admirers aren't friends. They may have liked her and looked up to her for being super skilled, but not for who she actually was - which is what genuine relationships are based on. There's also the fact that a lot of people probably only wanted to be around her to further their own reputations by being associated with her.

We actually see this happen in the show itself: Take Weiss, for example. She only cared about Pyrrha because she's an awesome fighter. She didn't care about her personality or who she was as a person at all, only that she would be an asset to her team. Imagine being surrounded by self-serving sycophants like that all your life, you'd quickly begin to become jaded to their compliments and question how sincere they were acting around her. When everyone is putting on an act around you, it'd be next to impossible to form a real bond with anyone.
