I'm going crazy. I'm 19 and have never had anything resembling a girl. It's driving me insane. I mean, is it too much to ask? Seriously. There aren't any great looking girls ou here, and all the good looking ones are taken. Am I that messed up that I can't even get a girl??

Where to start TW?
Well mate they won't come knocking at your door. A pretty face and a to die for body are not the ultimate you know. A personality and easy to get along with attitude are better in the long run for a girlfriend. So dont set your sights for a movie star.
Join a club or do some activity involving girls and meet them that way, much better than bars. Well it was for me anyway.
I am sure some younger guys than me will have some good advice too

Grumble,
No but one of the old ones will.
Push too hard and you'll just drive anyone worthwhile away.
There is a really deep secret I can impart to you, Wolf.
If you deal with girls as real people and let them work out your
good and attractive traits, maybe some will like you enough
to consider a cuddle or three.

Just taking a stab in the dark here TW, but I would guess what you said in these two sentences I've quoted here is a large part of your problem.
If you're going to make looks your first priority you'll miss out on a lot of wonderful girls. There's more to a person than looks.
And Grumbleguts has also given you some good advice...
Join some clubs, or find some activities where you can meet girls, strike up a conversation with some of the young ladies, get to know them and just maybe you'll find someone that you hit it off with and she won't necessarily be the prettiest face in the crowd. I firmly believe a person's personality, intelligence, and outlook on life in general are much more important than mere "looks". You might be passing up the "perfect mate" because you're so pre-occupied with whether or not she's "good looking".

I have yet to meet an intelligent and vital lady who didn't shine
regardless of "looks". A radiant smile and force of personality
make a person beautiful. Skin is a bit of icing on the cake.

OF, I think that's pretty much the idea I was trying to get across to Timber Wolf. If he's only going on looks alone, he's going to miss out on some pretty wonderful people.
I also discovered, back when I was dating (back in the Stone Age..LOL) that the guys who were the best looking were more interested in themselves and made for really lousy dates. I believe that personality and common interests are waaaayy more important than looks!
So are we in agreement, OF??

Thought a little Aussie smoothness'd work the legendary charm.
Always happy to lay on the smarm.

Its one of the strange things about life, The harder you try to find a partner, the less likely you are to find one.
I am a little concerned about the " there are no good looking girls..." That ( and dont take this harshly ) comes across as a bit shallow. Relax, enjoy the company of the opposite sex, be yourself and I guarantee it will all fall into place.
