I've been RP for about 2 years now. Lift 3 times a week. 6'2" 175 lbs, have a business, and play guitar.

Most of my plates I've met through clubs and night life. Which is all well and good but I am constantly interacting with women under the influence of alcohol. Or after I have created attraction so I tend to already have the confidence. I've been working on not needing alcohol to interact.

​

Today I had a date with a young woman who I've met previously during the day. We meet up and chat. The whole interaction felt like an interview. I didn't push/pull or do anything for attraction other than strong body language. New territory for me. I had to open up my shop so I walked her to her car. On the way I grabbed her hand and led her there. She held mine for a second then ended up pulling away. Not abrasively but it came across as she didn't like that. I took that as a loss of attraction so I didn't go in for a kiss close, which felt beta as fuck (I always try at night with alcohol).

Any tips or techniques to practice to get more into push/pull, escalating, building attraction during a day time interaction? I know it's basically the same as night time. Did I fuck up this encounter? Should I have made a move, even after her pull away? I also had to work so I wasn't really pursuing since I couldn't F close.
