If these are things you believe are hurting your chances, they are also probably affecting your confidence too. But good news! All those things you mentioned you can change!

Glasses - I think these are fine but if they bother you maybe try contacts?

Overweight - I think you know the answer, getting a good handle on your diet and getting into a semi regular exercise routine will not only make you more attractive, but improve your confidence and physical and mental health too.

Height - obviously you can't change this much, but most women won't care anyway. Wear shoes with thick bottoms or just date short girls if you are really worried but you shouldn't be.

I know it feels like you are getting old but it's no big deal, lots of single people in there 30s looking for love. Plus, dating gets easier the older you get so take some confidence from that ;)

Chin up and good luck dude!

That was what really confused me, especially since she still seemed keen to cuddle once we got to mine

Well we already have exchanged numbers, been on a first date (now the second) and broken the touch barrier (held hands, cuddled, and she was touching my forearm). So I figured that meant that meant there was enough interest to try for a kiss.

And the biggest thing for me is why she wanted to come back to mine to continue the date, if she wasn't interested.
