I had three real life friends. One cut me off and moved away somewhere, one fired me (I have the email) and the third is going the same way.
I have posted on POF, Tinder, Badoo, Singles Around Me, Craigslist, all of them, and got nothing except spambots. I've been to pubs and clubs, that's one reason I went to Aberystwyth the other week, and been invisible. I've advertised in bus shelters, phone boxes, here on my estate, with nothing to show for it. I've asked people I know, real life and facebook, time and time again. Guess what?
Online matching sites are not the answer.
Real life mingling is the solution. Take a look at what your neighborhood has to offer. Clubs and bars are not necessarily the answer, but it seems to me from your description you were the one just sitting there waiting for a woman to approach you. Most women want to be approached by a confident man, start with that, start approaching women, offering to buy a drink, getting to know her.
