My 2 cents (which I am very under qualified to give) - Be more chatty, maybe your a quiet person but you can be chatty without being loud - Start smoking (or maybe vaping), sounds terrible but if your in a busy pub it will be one of the times you can actually engage in conversation - Go out with some female friends if you can, women seem to presume your at least an ok person/not a creep if your hanging around with a few girl (hopefully this doesn't sound creepy I mean go out with people you actually enjoy being around platonically!) - Seem like your having fun/are interesting, nobody wants to hang around somebody with somebody who doesnt want to be there, enthusiasm matters no matter the subject of conversation. - If your a messy/agro drunk don't get completely wrecked, if your not fire away - Confidence is literally everything for guys, I know its useless advice but don't be unconfident, don't presume women don't find you attractive, on that note don't also presume that all women find you attractive either many many won't or are just wanting a fun night out with their friends - Don't treat your interactions with women on a night out as having a goal of scoring them, just have fun and be relaxed. - Try to go to places you feel comfortable in and like the atmosphere off, e,g if your not too preppy head to a rock/indie bar - If you can't dance/ not amazing looking don't be downhearted about no success in nightclub/meat market type places Its all very vague and as I said not exactly that qualified to lecure on this but I think these things would help.

Let him know what he's doing wrong as something is obviously not right if he's never had a gf by age 22. He doesn't need to hear "just be yourself" for the 100th time from a dismissive online stranger.

You're making yourself miserable by chasing the impossible. My advice is find something you enjoy (video games, movies, camping) and focus your energy on that instead.

I used to be very shy but not so anymore. I'd class myself as a quiet guy as regards trying to get to know women but when I know ya I'm mental lol I do not blame women as its my fault im on the quieter side. When it comes to the louder or quieter guys. The louder will win a woman's attention. And theres plenty of loud fellas my age. I'm not gonna opt out if society, not a chance cos I want marriage and kids someday in the future and simply I've got to much love inside me not to shower some woman with it.
