Well here's some words of wisdom from C. S. Lewis:
“The very condition of having Friends is that we should want something else besides Friends. Where the truthful answer to the question "Do you see the same truth?" would be "I see nothing and I don't care about the truth; I only want a Friend," no Friendship can arise - though Affection of course may. There would be nothing for the Friendship to be about; and Friendship must be about something, even if it were only an enthusiasm for dominoes or white mice. ..."
In other words as long as all any of us know about you is that you want friends and you want a girlfriend, there won't be much interest in being your friend. When we know what you are about, what matters to you, what you value, who you are on the inside, then some of us will be more likely disposed to want to get to know you better. But for now, you come across as the run of the mill newcomer who just came to talk about how much he doesn't like being single. And yes, creating the conditions for friendship to form takes time and investment.
