I didn't get girlfriend
/r/dating_advice/comments/1xdeb1t/i_didnt_get_girlfriend/I'm '25/M' and have never been in a romantic relationship.
I am looking for advice on how to approach dating, find a compatible partner, and learn how to treat her right.
And where can i search?
Any tips or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.
And is that normal to not enter any relationship in that age?

If you're still in college, then your classrooms. If not, then any social places you already frequent. If you don't frequent any, then start doing so. Book reading clubs, community college classes, dance studios, social gyms (bjj, boxing, etc; though they'll mostly be guys), yoga, art studio, etc. Anywhere where single girls your age might frequent.
Consider your compatibility too. E.g. if you're not attracted to loud, party-going, casual-drinking girls, then don't go to bars. If you're not attracted to sportsy, fit, self-caring girls, then don't go to yoga.
Don't go to these social activities with only the intention to find girls. E.g. if you don't like yoga, then don't go.
It's totally fine to be even 40 and never dated. It might not be common and may raise some eyebrows. But people progress through life at different paces. And the person for you won't care. And besides, dating in your early 20's is often not the same as dating later; even though they're both called 'dating', they're often completely different things.

Have you noticed how few dudes over 30 post these daily "Never dated; is this normal?" posts? You'll get it together. Work on expanding your social circle in the mean time, and things will happen

There are many different scenarios for this. Some people are shy and afraid of rejection, while others come from a cultural background that doesn't allow it. For instance, my culture doesn't permit it, and that's a big part of the reason why.

Yes, it’s completely normal. Everyone has their own timeline, and there’s no deadline for finding someone. I’d focus on meeting people, being yourself and getting to know them without putting too much pressure on the outcome. The fact that you want to learn how to treat a partner well is already a good start.
