I’m sure there have been a million posts like this but I couldn’t find a specific one.

Long story short, I’m 29 living in the US and have been working on self improvement / pickup for the last 6 or 7 years since I started from no experience at all.

I’ve had plenty of successes bringing girls back from bars and on first dates but really simply, I can’t get a quality girl to want to date me.

The ones I’m interested in dating always tell me they “didn’t feel a connection” or “just want to be friends” and the ones I’m not interested in are all over me and chasing me.

Never had a serious girlfriend before but I’ve had girls I’ve hooked up with last as long as 6-7 months (usually girls I didn’t want to date but it was nice to have someone to hook up with).

I’m not the oblivious person to say “it’s the world and nothing is wrong with me”. Clearly I’m doing something wrong. I’ve legitimately probably been on 100+ first dates and only maybe 10-20 of those led to a second date.

Has anyone overcome an issue like this before? I honestly don’t even know where to start.
