I agree with Chris and Jake's sentiments here, but allow me to put in my two cents... I'd be curious to know what exactly your conversation entailed and the way you carried yourself/body language/tonality. A lot of romantic connection and intimacy arise from getting down to a deeper level with a woman. At the end of the day, women are emotional beings and they fantasize-- like a lot. You need to use your language and mannerisms in a way that gets her to FEEL THAT attraction. Attraction is a double-edged sword, my friend. She can have initial physical attraction to a man, but she needs to feel that emotional connection/chemistry. This is what women mean when they say they 'don't feel a romantic connection'/'don't feel the chemistry'. A lot of it has to do with what you said/how you said it. Also, go in to your interactions with the mindset of you're going to have fun and see if you and her are compatible. You're going to self-sabotage if you enter interactions with an expectation or need for a specific outcome. That's the first step. Second step would be coming into your own body, in the moment, and realizing that this isn't life or death. This is an opportunity to meet, attract and seduce (if you want) a beautiful woman that you find interesting. In order to accomplish these goals, you must be very VERY keen on your body language, tonalities, conversational skills, etc.. Focus on the woman. Focus on what she finds interesting and go deeper on that. An example before I end this response: Say you're talking about what you guys do for work. Blah blah blah, she tells you, you respond "Wow, that sounds so fucking boring" (be tongue in cheek here, don't make it sound like you're genuinely judging her), "Tell me ____, what's something that's totally unique to you? What do you often find yourself indulging in?" This is a much better way to take a conversation because it gets her to A. open up, and B. allows her to go into her imagination and that creates an emotional state in her mind. Imagination is right next door to fantasizing (sexual fantasies, marriage fantasies, etc...) which is exactly the 'state' you want her to be in if you ever want there to be a 'romantic connection' between you two.
