haha, if only finding the right person were so easy... sigh.
You say you visit concerts and such and yet cannot hit up a conversation? Do you expect someone to just approach you and start chatting? Maybe they are thinking the same thing...
You need to put yourself in more social situations and need to learn some social skills. So maybe you are not yet ready for one-to-one conversations, it is a lot easier to talk with a group of people anyway, so whenever you see a group of people chatting, listen and understand the topic and try to chime in.
And yes, always being yourself is not the best option, because not changing yourself when you need to and expecting people will like you for it is just being selfish.
