https://forums.playingfire.com/posts/overinvested-how-to-follow-up So this is a follow up to the above thread. The girl was a bit slow to respond but ultimately I got the number and soft closed for drinks. Once we switched to text she ghosted on two close attempts. She was insta replying to my messages so maybe my last message about where she was from wasn’t necessary, could have just suggested the meet instead. The plan was to close in the text after that one but she didn’t reply. For some reason my phone deleted two messages. After her text about having work due Monday I said ahh sounds stressful what are you studying. She said biotechnology and pharmaceutical engineering. Then I said the artsy line. Thoughts?

Quick update on me trying to set up the 2nd date:
Me: How does Friday or Saturday sound
Her: Perhaps Saturday
Me: Perhaps? You don’t sound 100% sure
Her: Based on work :/
Me: Busy girl
A few days go by, then early on Saturday I text “hmm if tonight isn’t good let’s just try again another time”. Not sure if this was a good text or not
*Edit - she just replied with “hey haha things have been a mess hope you’re ok”. Kinda vague but she was in the ER recently for some health issues so who knows. I’ll just say something like “ah sounds stressful hope nothing bad happened”

Yeah, that's probably a good text to send. You probably just going to need to be persistent with this girl

Okay here is the update, she ended up flaking after we made same day plans. Didn’t think my last text was that bad. Not sure how to proceed here?
