I think you have a small sample size. I don’t think anyone said you have to touch them on the first date but it’s usually helpful.
On first dates where I didn’t touch them I am significantly more likely to get the “didn’t feel a spark” text.
So no you shouldn’t just grab your date just because but if things are going well it generally won’t hurt and will also improve your outlook.

You can’t escalate if you don’t touch her.

These ones liked you despite not “doing the steps”. Great sign
Works for some, doesn’t work for others. Seduction is guidelines mostly

OK? And did you sleep with any of those women?
There are people who take pride in not putting their personality on the line. Sure, maybe no one hates them. But no one loves them either. They are just tolerated.
No one who is good with women advocates going 0-100. But you need to engage her, including physically. Sure you might rack up a bunch of early dates. But it'll never go anywhere because you're not actually putting anything on the line. You are merely being tolerated.
This will always be the reality.

Touch, escalation etc is almost a must unless the other person is super into you. On dates I didn't escalate I normally get the "I don't see us going anywhere romantically "

Another woman here- I second this sentiment. I feel a lot safer when there isn’t physical pressure on the first date. I’ve noticed it’s mostly men here who seem to disagree. I definitely think a hug hello/goodbye is good (if they’re a hugger), though.

Yep some guy tried to lick my arm and arrange a 2nd date ASAP..Needless to say I was creepy out and not interested

Yep. I never ever touch anyone without their consent. And it has not hurt my game at all. Seduce them mentally and they'll be aching for you to touch them.

What's the rush? Only guys for whom sex is scarce feel they always need to escalating and harassing girls.
