Haven't heard back from the hinge person after inviting her to the tennis (been over 30 hours but who's counting)π© maybe she got bored or maybe just a busy weekend (copium). Whatever.
Over investment in internet people before meeting isnβt good for the brain. Says she who purchased a fictitious numbat for strangers, but is also approaching 10 anniversary with Boyo from OKC. Enthusiasm canβt be scheduled. π§
Excuse me that numbat is REAL and LOVED.
May Nellie bring Fullkit better luck soon. π
Nellie gives me imaginary joy β₯
Yeah it's definitely not good for me, especially someone with anxiety (self diagnosed). I keep checking my phone for no reason, I don't know why I keep downloading that app π©
Yeah she's not interested, if she was she would have responded with > 0 by now.
What's > 0? She's been replying like once every 12-15 hrs anyway. I'll probably give up if I don't hear back tonight. πββοΈ
Is it worth texting one more time or just let it be?
The ball is in her court, which is very apt
"> 0" means greater than 0. Meaning if she was interested she would have replied with at least something.
As for the previous frequency, this only proves my point even more. Now that you are trying to make this "real" it's radio silence.
Personally I would do nothing. You've put the ball in her court and she's not returning the serve it seems (yes I made a tennis pun).
I personally wouldn't text her if it was me at this point. It's not worth your dignity.
Don't give up after one message. Especially since you had obvious rapport.... she wasn't talking to you for no reason.
Be prepared for it to be a sign she's not interest. But there's no reason to jump to conclusions yet.
Yeah we had a good conversation going. I just feel sad, why am I so invested in this?? Also, do you mean maybe leave her another message before giving up?
Don't message again. It makes you look desperate. Move on and if she gets back to you, great. If not, whatever.
Yeah, that's what I thought as well but was confused by Pilk's comment.
