Robb: At first, it just felt a little tense and awkward. I felt like I was trying to fill a lot of silence with conversation. We obviously had stuff to talk about, [but] the conversation felt a little one-sided at times.
She may have been one of those girls who expects you to carry the conversation, and when you don't she thinks you're awkward.
I sort of buy the chemistry line. Occasionally I talk to girls and I just get this totally non-sexual vibe, and I can't even imagine having sex with them. Like sex with them makes about as much sense as say, beating off to pictures of golf courses. I'm not that into Asians anyway, but a lot of them have that vibe here in America. Sometimes I'll just convince myself the girl is cute and make the move despite not feeling like it, and see if this brings her to life.

I’m very bad at wrapping dates up. Do you go for the handshake, do you kiss her, the high-five? It was getting kind of awkward, and she was like, “Are you going to ask me for my number?” So I got her number and gave her mine.
He's awkward when it comes to touching strange girls, so when he feels no chemistry, he's not going to just brute force it like you or I might. Instead, he'll just accept it as a lost cause.

The guy could have closed, especially if it'd been a weekend. He chose not to to. A man with standards in D.C. Game recognized.
Standards =/= game. It could even be a sign of weak game, or that his outside options are good. It sounds like he doesn't get sex quickly with girls, and he's not looking forward to putting in three or five dates just to bang this girl and then drop her like we might. Meanwhile, he's got another girl. I'm actually surprised he ignored her text - unless she was horrendous in some way, that sounds a little passive aggressive - dude is probably the type to avoid confrontation.
When you can bang a girl quickly, your willingness to try and fuck any given girl increases. Less projected expense per girl --> more attempts.
