Can you help me determine what is my type and where to meet her? Also what types would I be best avoiding and what dating scenes to avoid? Where would be good first date ideas for the 'type' I should be dating?
About me:
I'm 31, quiet, scrawny, don't play sports, dont fit in at the gym, never drink beer with the guys or have guy friends, love food and to cook, studied liberal arts, not really a churchgoer or very religious but was raised catholic, am peaceful, love pets, politics, and am extremely affectionate and love to cuddle and snuggle with the girl I will date. I like the idea of living together in the very near future and coming home to each other. Not necessarily for children right away but eventually.. Im more interested in just being together.
I come from blue-collar parents who worked. And lastly.. I mostly like rock music and old films from the 80s. Im cute in a justin bieber sort of way rather than a richard gere sort of guy.
So why am I still single? Please help 
10 years of trying dating sites, bars, clubs, and everything else has not worked.

Okay, do me a favor.
you like pets
step 1- Find out where your local humane society is or ASPCA
step 2- call, or go there, or if you can fill out a volunteer application online do soooooo....
step 3- show up to volunteer
Do it.....for these reasons.... First of all dive into things you enjoy and while doing so you will meet people that also enjoy these things that you enjoy....and get to know them....and you are helping your community....
I am currently volunteering myself for my local humane society...
Believe it or not another mistake I think you are making is that you are going to typical "dating" places. (bars, clubs, blah blah) Yet you state you are not into drinking beer....Go places you like to go to...go to a rock concert, find out how to volunteer for politics in your area....go places with common interests....
