have you tried to join a dating site?
i did this for the first time a month ago, my brother set up a profile for me and told me to give it a go.
i just cancelled it though but did receive a fair few likes, if you haven't tried maybe give it a go?

i couldn't even muster up the courage to send them a message, too many normal people!
maybe there are some sites dedicated for people with mental/anxiety issues?
i haven't looked but surely there should be a few out there.
