I am very much the same to be honest and I've always found it unbelievably frustrating.

At Uni, I knew about 20 or so girls reasonably well. Out of those, there were 5/6 that I didn't find attractive looks wise. Out of the 14/15 others that I found attractive, there was only one found 1 who I would consider girlfriend material. It's not even that I'm being fussy, it's just that I never seem to have more than superficial relationship with most people.

I guess this is why I'm so put off by the whole dating thing because I've always found it extremely hard to connect with people despite having put myself out there in all different types of social setting. It's not like there is any sort of club or social group I can join to try and improve my chances because I wouldn't say my personality is particular suited to any interest I have.
