You know what's going to happen, right? The first woman you're going to "meet" is going to be a total knockout. Maybe you're the rare person that meets one girl and then marries that girl and live forever happy.

Well OP you are not alone since there are probably more male late bloomers than female late bloomers, since women don't have to be the initiators and being the initiator requires a lot of skill and confidence, social-skills and conversation-skills and a lot of men lack those

Men could ask women to step up in those areas but women would just call you pathetic or less of a man for suggesting it. So if it's that hard to get a single date and it shouldn't be forget about it because it's not you but them.

Business as usual.
When applying game theory to dating I conclude one thing, being aggressive is a dominate strategy. In other words, no matter what your options and her responses could be, being aggressive will give you the best results of all the combos. Try for more girls and broaden your standards - it's a huge open market.

But you couldn't perform sexually, correct? At that point you should have sought help for your problem or accepted that she would need to meet someone else. You weren't in a committed relationship, and I suspect that lack of sex is a dealbreaker for most healthy young women.

For her part, she should have explicitly broken up with you first.

David, you need to forget about the 800 meters and work your way up to the marathon. Chicks dig the long ball.

Mod cut: Off topic.

Anyway OP, maybe don't drunk text your love interests? Generally that does not impress people.

I guess it's just easier for some men to opt out and have no contact with women completely. I don't blame these men. Dating and approaching women can be frustrating when you get nowhere.
