The one thing you should never do when a woman doesn’t reply to you
This is 100% going to get you rejected, always
Sometimes, if I haven’t established a strong connection with you where we talk regularly, I won’t reply. Not because I’m a bitch, not because I don’t like you or want to potentially see where it goes, but because I have a life. I might have seen your message and had to get on with my day, and forgotten about it when it was buried in my inbox. I could, and probably have, been busy. Sick. Distracted. Away.
There’s only so many “hi how are you” messages a girl can meaningfully engage with. I simply don’t have enough hours in a day to go through every dating app, every social media account, and every email, to neatly respond to everyone who has sent me ‘would be lovely to see you’ in a timely manner. There’s only so much time I’m prepared to spend on someone I’ve never met or really spoken with. There’s definitely only so much I’m prepared to put up with from someone who is not significant to me, or even just known to me.
So don’t ever, ever, ever, get passive aggressive or upset with me (or any woman) if I just haven’t got back to you. You look unhinged.
I don’t mean a polite message like “hi, hope everything is ok!”. That’s totally fine. I nudge people all the time. And thank you…
