My two cents:

Keep your eyes open systematically and in the right places for a potential new boyfriend who
- is a native English speaker,
- likes to go to the movies with a woman,
- likes to make a woman happy,
- likes reading,
- is not a conservative and
- who has similar values and interests in common with you.

Also, expand your social environment and look for some new female friends whose lifestyles exceed tidying, dusting and cooking while watching the tube. It could turn out to be one of the most revolutionary experiences of your life.
