My strategy has been to number close quickly off the app and banter a bit via text, suggest a meetup (I try to suggest the meetup only when I know I can meet fairly soon after so the conversation does not fizzle out) I notice that the further away the date is, the more texting thus the more chance to mess up and texting to much before the date leads to a false impression of her or she of you. I can get them on a date fairly easy once I spot that she has some interest, then I through some flirty/fun teasing, after I set the date I try not to fall into the back and forth conversations.
Most first dates I like to go for drinks but I notice it feels more of a meet to see how it goes instead of her knowing for a fact she wants to hookup. I have been getting better at dating and most dates seem great, I do not come off as too platonic after a few drinks I find myself enjoying myself but never find the right time to make a move since it feels like its too quick. After the first date I usually I follow up and suggest meeting up but never goes anywhere. I am realizing that instead of just going on any date with any match that I should frame it in a way where it could get sexual and screen more. I look at the dates more of practie but now after being on 7 dates I feel like I am lost. I already read Alex's products.

I am wondering are most girls just looking to hookup on first dates, it seems like they never want to go on multiple dates to see where it goes and try to build something.
