I don't think it's going to go any further with this woman. I feel like I am making a ton of effort and she is just not that interested anymore. It is what it is. I'm a little bummed out because of how things started, but this is the reality now. No use analyzing it.
P, don't get discouraged. Sometimes the chemistry is just not there for one or the other or both, and when it's not then there's no use pushing it. Try not to take it personally! The more women you go out with the greater the odds of finding someone you are attracted to that is also attracted to you. That's the goal is to find that combo, and until you do you keep trying. I went out on a lot of first dates, sometimes it felt like dating was the part-time job I had after my regular job, LOL! It took a lot of time and effort. At first you get upset over any perceived rejection, but eventually you look at it with a bit of clinical detachment.
You have a unique set of qualities that no one else has, and some women will find it highly attractive and others won't. You can't fault them for that, we all have our personal preferences. Tall or short, hairy or bald, fit or full, etc. etc. etc. When you find the right one it will have all seemed worth it.
