Dating experience - unexpected outcome

[Evolver]

A few weeks ago a lady liked my profile on F/B dating. I am late 50s, she is early 60s and her profile pics were quite glamorous. She looks like a younger version of Judith Light, with flowing blonde hair. We chatted online and exchanged numbers. I sent her a few pics of myself. During our phone call she paid me a lot of compliments saying I was in good shape, look smart, good job etc. She indicated that I was ideal in terms of her taste in men. We arranged to meet, we went to a bar and shared a comfy sofa. We were affectionate all evening, my arm was around her most of the time, we had a few kisses here and there, and there was a lot of laughing. She was complimenting me the whole time, and asking me what I thought of her. Afterwards I dropped her off somewhere close to her road, and we kissed passionately a few times before she go out of the car. 

During our next phone call she said we were too affectionate for a first date and wanted to take it much slower going forward, as she has been single for years. Turns out it was her daughter that set up the dating account as she wants her mum to meet someone.

For our next date, she actually brought the date forward by a week (something got cancelled on her side), which indicated her eagerness to see me. On the morning of the date she texted to confirm whether we were still meeting, which was probably pre-date nerves as she hadn't heard from me. The 2nd date was pleasant, we walked around the village, held hands a few times. She seemed a bit more contradictory than our first meeting. She reacted irritably to a couple of things, and when I asked if she was ok holding hands, she first didn't seem sure, then said ok. However when we were having a meal sat opposite each other, there seemed to be a nice connection. We were grinning the whole time and she kept insisting on asking me what was on my mind. We leaned forward and kissed a couple of times. She said I was funny and made her laugh a lot. Her daughter video called her, and she introduced me, which I thought was nice.
When I took her home and dropped her off near her road, we kissed passionately. This was Saturday.

Fast forward three days and I tried to call her. She replied by text a few minutes later saying she's not really feeling the initial connection she thought she had with me, and that eventually I should meet another special lady. I responded by saying it takes longer than just a couple of dates to build chemistry, but no worries and reach out to me if she ever has a change of mind.

My mind has been in turmoil, thinking what I could have done wrong to scare her off? I was wondering whether the thought of getting into a relationship after all these years spooked her? After all it was her daughter who set up the account as her mum didn't seem bothered about meeting anyone.

She has previous trauma of 20 year abuse with a narcissist which affected her confidence drastically. Is this why she kept asking me what I thought of her?

When we were on the date and she kept asking me what I was thinking, was that my chance to say things she wanted to hear? Not sure.
We are still matched on the dating site, and I can see that she has not blocked or deleted my number.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? She only texted me yesterday so it's all still quite raw.

It happens very often that people who are disproportionately excited on the first date get disinterested very soon afterwards.

She clearly has a lot of hesitations and possible some serious confidence issues. She tried to compensate for that by artificially ramping up emotions during the date with you. Obviously, it didn’t work.

I don’t think you did anything wrong, unless you count the fact that you didn’t see the yellow / red flags when she showered you with praise on the very first date and then kept asking you what you thought of her.

Yeah what you described is extremely  common. People seem really interested even to the level of making out or having sex on the first date only to do a 180 and act pretty disinterested. Lots of explanations for it but I assure you it was nothing you did. Could range from anything from she isn't ready for a romance to her only wanting some sex and either wasn't interested in having sex with you or decided to call things off when sex didn't happen by the second date.

9 times out of 10 these things have nothing to do with the individuals they are dating and everything to do with the person who called it off. The most you would have done is miscalculate her interest level in the beginning.
