The theory I've picked up here while lurking has been instrumental in increasing my quantity and quality of dates. It is of importance to note that these women are more traditional and relationship oriented, as am I. The issue is, several dates in, I have been getting the "you're a good/great guy, fun to be with, but I just want to be friends." I invariably say something like I've got enough friends and cut contact with them.

I think I am missing something: generating attraction from the onset or not letting the initial attraction diminish. I'm mid twenties, decent looks and build, and somewhat entertaining. Guys, what are some practical things to do to build attraction, especially with more traditional women? For example, I have a museum party date with one tomorrow and a park date with another next weekend.
