Don't bother with people you kinda like. You deserve better! (not to say that people you kinda like aren't good people, but.)
I've been in your shoes. Perhaps you may enjoy reading my story of how I found her -- my wife. Our Best Version | How I Found My Soulmate

God (The force, the universe, the conscience, the collective unconscious) knows I'm gonna read your story right now.
Well, sometimes I see some people has a partner... and even marry on fear of being alone, not because they are in love, but kind of "this is a secure way", kind of sticking to an ordinary job. And when someone ask you "Do you have a girlfriend/wife?" you can answer YES, and seem more "normal" or "successful" than if you say no, kind of like jobs (even if you secretly hate your job)
.
And sometimes people may to say to you "What are you waiting for?, pick any girl " or so... like I was being snobbish or narcisist for waiting for someone I really like... I prefer to be romanticly "broke".
Maybe someday I'll write, What I learnt for my romantic bankruptcy in my 20s.
