Having a really hard time with this right now. I know online dating is rough and it's done a real number on women and dating as a whole, but there's gotta be some way to crack the modern code and get past the blocks, enough to get to a second date. This never used to be so hard, and now it's harder than ever.

All of my dates have been fine: She does the majority of talking, I escalate physically with arm and back touches, hugs to start off and finish the date, lots of laughs, etc. But the next day - even before I text her - she hits me with the "I didn't feel a connection" line when everything at the outset seemed fine.

Any suggestions? Cause this is killing me...
