I've never had a lifting partner and I've never had a problem finidng spots. Just find somebody who doesn't look like a total tool and ask them for a spot. Sometimes you'll get a jackass who thinks a spot means helping you with very single rep, but usually it isnt a problem.
Regardless, if you do get a lifting partner, choose wisely. Make sure that you both have similar goals, schedules, and determination. A lot of times I see a lifting partner holding someone back because they're too busy talking about some bullshit frat party to lift hard.
