I've (M30) been feeling a bit down lately as I have been on several recent dates where the conversations have been fun with a lot of laughter. I follow the date up and they say it's been fun but there's no "romantic element" or something to that effect.

I never try to kiss them cause they're first dates and I'm looking for signs that they might be interested in that- I might do some friendly taps on their arms and see if they recoil or do any in return and often neither happen so I interpret that meaning to back off. There's often hugs at the beginning and end of the date that I don't instigate but that's just friendly I think.

Superficial time- all my photos are incredibly recent, including one of me at a marathon. I'm overweight but perhaps don't look it from front-on. Should I try showing photos from the side or just wait until I lose weight (a vow that has taken such a long time)

Should I keep going, change behaviour or Am I cooked?
