<human>: Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell

To say the least, I've had a stretch of bad luck. From my perspective, it seems after college everyone grabbed the closest person they could find and burrowed away with them. And for those of us who are left, either no one trusts anyone- or they aren't ready- or they just got out of a long term relationship- or some variation of some bullshit.

I've tried online dating. I've tried approaching women in public places. And most of the time they don't lead anywhere, however, sometimes I'll get their numbers, we'll meet up, have a great time, go on A SINGLE DATE, where I thought we had an equally great time, so much to the point that I'll even get that post-date text saying how nice of a time they had. But, somewhere between the meet up, the 3 or 4-hour date of laughs and great conversation and the next day I drop the ball entirely apparently and I have absolutely no fucking idea why. 

I'll shoot them a text the day after a date, or give it a day between, to strike up a casual conversation-- like the conversations these women and I have been having up until this point. And their answers are just short. Blatantly short. One word most of the time. I don't get it. I'm respectful. I flirt. I don't pressure ANYTHING. I'm witty, confident, good-looking. I'm not the pig that I hear women complain about all the time. But, yet it still gets me absolutely no where and I'm left feeling used for a free meal, despite the connection that seemed to be there. Could someone please enlighten me what the fuck I need to do. It's getting exhausting and honestly, incredibly hopeless.
<bot>: Meet women. Get along really well with them. Go on a single date. Have a great time. Confirmed from them it was a great time. Then they are short and disinterested afterwards
