Tell me where I went wrong:

The date itself was "ok" - target was an old flame I decided I could practice on because I don't have anything else going on.

I hardly got much game in there or much attraction that I had otherwise done a very good job of building up beforehand by creating anticipation and keeping her unsure about where she had me.

When it was time to part ways I stood and let her finish whatever it was she was talking about, then she said she'd better get home, I nodded and then she went in for a hug, saying "would you like a hug?" and I lamely said "thanks". Then she said it was "Good to see me again". I said something I don't recall, followed by "Take care of yourself," which afterwards seemed totally retarded, as I interpreted myself saying "have a great life" as if I was rejecting her right there.

I don't have that feeling of "yes, nailed it", not least because I didn't hear from her afterwards, even if my sonar detected possible major interest.

So, if you have a date that goes kinda lamely - perhaps uninspiring convo, or it just isn't rolling - is there a good way to end it? Or have I interpreted the scenario incorrectly?

Right away I could point out I ought to have ended this thing faster and made it sure it was I who bade her farewell, not the other way around. And of course, better storytelling to mesmerize her and fire her sex engines, since routines like the cube would not be an option with someone you already know.

You're overanalyzing. you care too much. you most likely are putting off a "needy" vibe that reeks of desperation and lack of options. you're over-valuing her. let things flow natural, don't over think, and don't get down on yourself later. you're speculating how she feels and what she's thinking, don't do that shit. she's an "old flame", let her go and find new prospects. maybe you could've done a better job gaming, being charismatic, confident, alpha, but there is never a perfect attraction switch or "magic bullet" in the form of a routine, story, etc. that will wet a girls panties and get her "sex engines" fired up.

I learned back in March when I met a Turkish girl, that you can't always tell whetehr a girl likes you. Sometimes a girl seems really into you but doesn't really give a shit. Other times she seems cold, or the whole interaction doesn't feel right, but the girl actually digs you and that is just the way she expresses herself.

It don't matter - the date sucked and my game was crap. I'm just glad I got to do shit here. I'm meeting this law-student later this week and I would really be grateful to me if I managed not to fuck up. I've missed too many golden opportunies.
