Yup, I've tried online dating. I sent about 80 messages, got maybe 10 replies, went out with 4 girls. One was interested in me that was the thing that lasted 2 weeks.

But the others didn't seem that interested, in the sense they would go out with me and talk with me, but it was just talking. I feel like maybe I'm doing something wrong, like I heard a guy is supposed to pay for her dinner (didn't realize that until this week), buy her a drink, try and touch the girl gently on the arm or put his arm around her or something (it just seems awkward to me), or make eye contact to try and decide if he should kiss her. Usually girls have to verbally tell me to kiss them for the first time. There just seems to be no emotional response from women. It is weird to me since I am attracted to them, and they tell me I am handsome, successful, nice, etc, maybe it's just a matter of being more forward and striking out a lot? (i.e. more numbers / experience).

I am considering the PUA thing but don't want to become that sketchy guy with diseases that women don't think is marriage material.
