Think more about exactly what you want from a girl. This will make you more discriminating when you are talking to them, and you will reject some, and treat others with a bit more enthusiasm. It sounds like now, you spread your adoration around to many girls equally. No girls really like feeling that you like them just as much, not more or less, than their friends. They want you to like them uniquely. But, you have to know more precisely what you want first, and then actively discriminate a bit. Good luck!

Limit the time you spend with them in a bar or club. Chat for a while and then disappear. The fact that you have the time to spend all evening chatting with them signals that you have nowhere else to be and no one else to be with and that makes you less attractive.

You are sooooo friendly, it is Unsexy.
Basically, you are addressing certain women's emotional needs too much, and failing at others.
I have lots of experience being "just a friend" and eventually learning to turn Friends into Lovers. It took me years to figure out the formula, but it works for me now.
Here are some clues:
Fear of Abandonment is an emotional need that a really good friend addresses, but too well...because you likely give too much attention that she feels she has not earned, and that kills romantic interests.
Dominance is an emotional need that most "best male friends" fail at, because they are sooo nice, they keep trying to make a girl happy...but end up forcing her to feel like a mother to him. This is a turn off for romantic feelings.
So some simple advice is
1-Make a girl feel that she has earned your attention by pointing out what is unique about her
2-Lead the interactions, so that she never feels like your mother.
If you want more info, I am the author of a book and audio book entitled From Friends To Lovers and you can read and listen to previews of it at my website:
