Don't look for girlfriends in a bar.

Then don't look for girlfriends in a place where most people drink
and/or smoke. Think of what kind of girl you want to find, try to
imagine where such a girl might enjoy being, then go to that place.

This is not enough information. For example, in the north of Sweden
there are more men than women. If you're a girl and you're looking for a
macho boyfriend this is a good place. Go and look at some statistics and
figure out where you're more likely to find the sort of person you're
looking for.

You wouldn't get involved in this discussion again and again and again
if you didn't feel that need...

It doesn't matter what you Really Think about the weather. The reason
it's such a popular subject is because it's a neutral subject that
everybody can comment on and which renews itself all the time. It's a
polite way to start a conversation (it works with older relatives on
Christmas dinner too).

Getting a driver's license and a car might help.

Dumb answer. Of course you do.

Then you should be able to afford that car...

Ask people who have girlfriends/boyfriends how they met. You can be
fairly sure that their answers will involve some amount of talking to
each other.
