Help with the opposite gender?

Hey everyone I’m Chris (21m) and I’ve been single for imo way too long, about three and a half years now. I’m not sure why but everytime I get into a talking stage I tend to get ghosted before it really goes anywhere. I try to hold good conversations but it’s pretty hard to do so when the person I’m talking to puts no effort forward. I get compliments on my looks so it would make sense I’m at least decent looking. Dating apps don’t yield anything, and I’m generally too nervous to talk to women in person. Any advice?
