I think I'll be forever alone. life is depressing! My dating life sucks! Any advice?

I have no idea how I'm going to meet girls. I am 24, no social life, living with parents and I have literally 1 close friend. I am in a job I dislike, but I do it because i need money. It is summer and weather is nice, people are out enjoying themselves, whereas I am sat indoors doing nothing apart from some online shopping. I am out of shape and just generally feeling down & depressed about life. I have been trying to "get out there" and approach girls in the street, but I've given up as I haven't got the guts to approach any more. Met a nice girl in a shoe shop and made a little small talk with her but walked away without taking her number like an idiot. I just see no way I'll meet anyone. I feel like i'm destined to be forever alone! I try not to compare myself to others, but i'm a guy, i want to meet girls, it's human nature. i am not in education. i am in full time work and it does suck, i'll be honest. i work with guys and 2 marrie women. but the guys are older than me and we don't really socialise anyway as they have families. i am also fed up of living at home. not just at home, but also in the area i live in is a small town village and there's nothing here at all apart from a bunch of chavs. if i stay here any longer i know that my mind will rot, because this is what these small towns do to a person. i just wanted some advice? i don't know what else to day, but my life sucks at the moment.
