31 m, never had a serious relationship, what can I change?
I'm a 31-year-old male, South Asian. I only had one non-serious relationship when I was 22 with a lady who made a move on me. She wanted to date long-term but due to my life situation at the time, I could not commit to her.
When I was 26, another lady was introduced to me through a mutual friend and I too could not commit to her. I come from a conservative background and could not date when I was at home. Now, I've moved out again and living in East Asia and the apps are proving to be brutal. I'm of South Asian descent for what its worth, darker skinned, around 65kg and 1.78 m tall.
I can hold a conversation and even approach people. If I have a nice conversation with someone, I will simply ask for her social media or instant messaging contact info and message her to ask for coffee. In the past month alone, I have gotten three rejections (though all from East Asian women).
I'm also introverted but I do feel I have a lot to offer the right person. It just seems like throughout my life, the women I've been interested in have never been interested in me. Since 2016, I've probably asked maybe 8 women for coffee which I know is low but only one expressed interest in going further but she used fake images on her dating profile and so I backed off.
What can I do differently?
