OK: I take this phrasing of the question to imply that someone else *does*
get the girl.  Therefore - Spock "gets" the girl in This Side of Paradise,
The Enterprise Incident, The Cloud Minders (but Kirk does too - different
girl), and All Our Yesterdays.  I suppose one should include Amok Time.
McCoy gets the girl in Man Trap, Shore Leave, and For the World is Hollow...
We could count Friday's Child in a way.  All three of them have a go, in
their own ways, in Is There in Truth No Beauty? but without any real 
success.  Scotty has the girl in Lights of Zetar and Who Mourns for Adonais?
Chekov has the girl in Way to Eden , The Apple and Spectre of the Gun.
I'm ignoring Christine Chapel's pursuit of Spock here of course.  The
interesting thing which this survey seems to reveal is that NBC wasn't
up to giving Sulu (Oriental) or Uhura (Black) these privileges.
