You are kidding right? She missed your message? An interested women doesn't miss a thing when it comes to her chosen affection.

Anyways, just say "I see you are back, how about we go out for a drink tomorrow night if you are available." If she gives you some excuse and doesn't provide a different date, then you are out.

In the meantime you have 3 to 4 weeks to meet and talk to other women. Never limit yourself to one, because when you do that it's a missed opportunity to meet someone.

Women get lots of messages on dating apps. I'm just another guy who she's never met so I don't expect her to put much weight to my messages. The key is to meet in person, as a few have mentioned before. That's when you become more than "just another guy". 

I'm not actively looking for anyone at the moment so there's not much going on for the next 4 weeks.

Women who are interested make it completely obvious. They're not going to give you the brush off or not respond to messages. They put themselves in your orbit.

I don't think I should have expectations with her, a stranger. I've matched with women before who didn't exactly get my heart racing on the app, but were completely different in person.

I agree wholeheartedly. There's just a certain vibe in person that you can't get from a computer.

I agree that meeting in person is where it counts but she knows you messaged she’s choosing not to look/respond... I guess you can send a follow up. I actually had that happen where I didn’t really notice a guy until he sent me like 5 consecutive messages and we did go on a date

What this tells me is that I will never understand people. She was really nice, chatty and polite. Keen too. I had sent her 4 messages (as part of one reply) and she never even had the curiosity to read them! It was mid-conversation too so it wasn't even a random message I sent her. And nothing that would have scared anyone off. Very odd.

I guess I should stop expecting people to behave how I would in the same situation.
