Struggled to date as a young man up to c 20 y/o despite good looks. Would then go to many clubs and crash and burn a lot, speaking to at least 10 girls, aiming to get at least 2-3 numbers. Helped my development a lot and met my ex gf that way. After a long relationship digital dating was a thing and I loved it. After enjoying hookup culture for a while I met my current girlfriend that way. Takeaway for you: if you have 1-2 friends who you can go out with, do a lot of bars and clubbing and speak to many girls. It will help you also in your personality development. If you don’t have those friends, there are enough self help groups where guys look for mates to hit clubs and approach girls, join one of them.
