Gotcha. There was some call back humor embeded in there, but to your point- unnecessary and too much investment from my end. Thanks man.
One last thing, would you try to re-engage or chuck it?

Thanks Herb. I debated about sending this one, but she had already not responded in over a day. Since I thought we had good banter going on I thought maybe she misread/misunderstood and I wanted to clarify. Anyways, lesson learned.

Thanks man. Im here for the tough love, not bs. The emoji thing was an inside joke. I don't usually, but she was like an emoji nazi. I was trying to match but think it looked like I fell in her frame

I got it: Cat memes!
Jk, but thanks man, really good observation. I tend to come across flat I think, but I also don't want to come across too exited

Take this with a caveat, I dont know where you're located, I'm also fairly new here, and new to dating apps, but it seems to me you're talking to a fake account. It's happened to me before and I see some similarities.

Awesome man. Thanks so much. Will give it a go. And will also look for the vids. Cheers

Great advise and insights. Thanks brother. One more thing, would you re-engage with fun lighthearted humor (like nothing happened) or would you try to find out the reason behind her dating hiatus directly without dacing around the topic?
