With regards to your physical escalation problem, I found this ebook linked on the forum a while ago, it's a really interesting read:

While I was walking with the group, one of the guys started talking to me, and I sorta got the feeling he was either gay or bi or something, and interested in me. I found out that the whole group, Sally included, identified as "pansexual". I asked them what exactly that means, and we got into a discussion about it. Unfortunately, Sally drifted off with two of her friends, and got into seperate conversations with them, while I was sorta "trapped" in conversation with the dude. I didn't want to just be like "dude, leave me alone" and then go over to Sally again, because they were all part of the same group - it wasn't like he was just a random guy out of nowhere. The discussion became interesting though, because I told him that I view the whole "gender identity" thing as a religion, one which I'm reluctant to believe in. I did tell him that I think it's perfectly natural for people of the same sex to love one another - it's called "friendship", and it's been around since the beginning of time, and it doesn't mean that there's something fundamentally different about that person's sexuality. Everyone is naturally wired to *mate*, and mating is an exclusively opposite-sex phenomenon (two men can't *mate*, no matter how much they love eacother and no matter how many federal court rulings say they can), and the mating drive is the source of sexuality - so it just doesn't make sense for people of the same gender to try to have sex with eachother. I could tell that this line of thinking was new to him, and he had never pondered it before. Surprisingly, he seemed pretty open-minded to my ideas, and thanked me for sharing, and seemed willing to consider the concept of heterosexuality - and the irony of that was not lost on me, although perhaps it was on him.

What can we do to help this guy? Let's put together a comprehensive plan.

When I heard about Elliot Rodger, something in me changed. Things are serious now. I can see myself turning into him eventually, if this problem isn't solved. I've read the first 90 pages of the manifesto, and it's like reading my own autobiography. The way he describes the utter hopelessness he feels, and the jealousy, it was like hearing my own story told back to me.

I Skyped with him last night.
I was expecting to see an ugly, socially awkward man.
I was wrong!
This guy is average to above average looking, fun to talk to, and socially aware.
He just doesn't have much sexual experience.
He is a smart guy.
But, he is uneducated sexually.
He needs to learn the art of sex.
We talked about some strategies to help him learn the art of sex.
It can't really be learned over the internet, it can't really be learned by talking about it.
It has to be experienced physically.
He needs a sex coach-girlfriend-lover-intimate companion who can instruct him.
A woman who can guide him through this process.
We talked about how to find such a woman.
Sex therapists, sex workers, sex coaches, etc.
I'm sure there are many women who would be willing to help this guy learn sex.
The hardest part will be finding a good teacher who is sincere.
I would go somewhere where prostitution is legal.
I would be honest about my issue.
I would get help. Sexual help.
That is what this man needs.
Sexual experience.
I recommended that he go to SEA and get a few girlfriends.
*****
This guy proves that "approaching girls" is only one small part of the sexual process.
After the approach, there is still conversation, maintaining conversation, texting/calling, more conversation, dating, escalating, closing, sex, etc.
There are many aspects to this process of getting sex.
We must be work on all of these aspects.
*****
I get the sense that he can be more aggressive.
I get the sense that he can upgrade his fashion and style.
I get the sense that he can put himself into a better "fishbowl'.

Beyond all that, maybe someone can tell this fortysomething guy what the hell has changed in society that we have younger guys like this. Or is this an outlier case?
Good luck, and sorry again for calling troll on this one.

The original poster proves one thing beyond all doubt--David DeAngelo is worthless. The main problem is that he makes general, abstract observations that are true; but are basically useless. To learn to do anything well, the student needs specific advice geared to specific situations. DeAngelo says: "Women are attracted to men who are attractive." That's true, but how does that help the student?
Study Ross Jeffries. He's the best out there. Go to http://www.seduction.com.
There are different skill levels, and I'll just use the ones we got in school--A, B, C, D, F. The original poster is an F student right now. Going from F to C is different than going from C to A. It requires different teaching and different instruction. A lot of pick-up gurus are very good in teaching you to go from C to B or A. They're not so good for F students.
It takes work, but you can do it. Also, read Mystery and Neil Strauss.

During one of David Ds seminars, an audience member asked what he needed to do to get the girl to cone home with him in order to get 'laid'. David did not seem to pleased with the question, saying that 'I mainly deal with the attraction part of that equation'. He appeals to the GQ, $30 martini, velvet rope crowd so he feels the need to be 'classy' when in reality you need to have a dirty side to get the results you need with women.

I have alpha body language. I know how to walk into a room and command respect from everybody in it. But my vibe doesnt come across as SEXUAL. It's confident, dominant, it says "I'm cool,and I don't give a fuck about anyones approval." It says "I'm different from every other guy you've ever met." But it isn't sexual. I have no idea how to be sexual, at least not in a public social situation. I know how to jerk off to porn, though.
And so, because of this, whenever I begin touching a girl, it takes her by surprise. She wasn't expecting it. There was no sexual vibe beforehand, so she's probably thinking "WHY?" "Why is he touching me now? What's he trying to do?". Almost always, she begins looking for excuses to extricate herself from the conversation.
So thats where I get hung up. Sexual vibe, and initiating physical contact.

Your comment were right on. My guess is that he's just trying to appeal to the people who have the most money to spend on seminars. It says a lot about his integrity.

Update for 6/9:
JWLZG:
Yes, the headspace of "I need a woman right now" has definitely been ruling my life for the last 10+ years. I'm well aware of the negative consequences of being so needy - I've read my fill of game gurus saying neediness kills attraction. I get that. But I don't know what to DO about it.
.....EDIT
When I texted her the next day, I got a "who's this?" response. She was lukewarm (actually scratch that, lukecold), and displayed no interest in putting in even 0.00001% effort to be with me. So after all is said and done, I conclude that she's not into me, and I shouldn't waste my time thinking about her anymore.
That's how it goes with most girls. They're having a good time when I'm there (or at least that's how it seems), smiling, giggling... but don't put in one DROP of effort to be with me, or to let me know that they're interested. It's like two people riding a multi-person bicycle - I'm doing ALL of the peddling, and the girl is just sitting there riding along. No matter how far we go, she won't peddle, and the moment I stop peddling, the bike stops. She does NOTHING. And when the bike does stop, she gets off and says "well it was nice meeting you!"

If they don't notice you, well, you can be secure in the fact that they're not noticing a lot of other things too. This was a constant source of irritation between me and my ex-wife, who would be completely oblivious to everything from impending hurricanes to teenage gangstas staying with their grandmother a few doors down.
