One problem with dating sites is people tend to reject those they are compatible with because they believe someone better is going to come along. This was confirmed by a recent study by two Israeli professors in a pubished paper in the American Journal of Economics.
Without knowing more about your dating and relationship history it's hard to tell where things may be going wrong. All I can really do is give general common basics that I routinely see.
One of those is stating your intentions clearly at the end of the first date.
A second is trying to move to fast to soon. It comes across as being too needy.
A third one is not allowing yourself to be vulnerable. Sharing a few details about yourself, your experiences, and passions.
The fourth is being yourself. You mentioned changing your style. If you are changing to fit what you believe others want, you are not being authentic. Own who you are and don't apologize for it. Be you.
I know some of these may sound contradictory. It's a balancing act. You need to read the situation and time when and where it's appropriate to bring out each of these.
Like I said, without knowing details it's hard to pinpoint where things may be going wrong. It might be something you are missing, it could be the conversations, it could be the other person. It might be all of it combined.

My advice is keep trying it's never easy finding someone to date than it seems. Just try keep being yourself and don't worry by not having a boyfriend or a date. Sometimes that can happen the least your expect it and usually those are the best ones. Your still young so you got enough time just gonna improve yourself and wait till the right guy comes along.

You may not be doing anything wrong at all, things do not always pan out. In fact they might quite often not pan out most the time.
I say be yourself, be friendly and outgoing and if someone does want to friendzone you, be okay with that. If your a good friend, they may reconsider down the road and want more. I've both had friends and been the friend that later on, things change.
It can be easier to start dating a friend later on, may take months or years than a stranger. I've had guys I was just friends with and started to fall for, wanting more and he felt the same way.
Try not to think of a goal of getting a boyfriend, the best boyfriends are also your best friend.Maybe you are looking in the wrong places.
If you are really serious about wanting to be in a relationship, what do you think about joining one of the better online dating sites. Those like eHarmony where you have to pay to join you tend to have more people that are serious about being in a relationship vs just hooking up.
You have to honest about yourself as well as the type of person you are looking for.
Finding the right or any partner can be a lot of work, and you kind of need to treat it as a job.
You get out of it what you put into it.
I live in a rural area, so the dating choices were not that great.
It worked for me, so hopefully it can work for you.You need to learn how to read people, bodylanguage and everything personalities
Worrying too much...
Life goes on and you have plenty of time to find someone who appreciates you for who you are.
