How long should a man wait to contact if a girl is being wishy washy and giving him mixed signals?

The younger and dumber me would keep reaching out and trying to make something happen. Persistence may be the key to success in many areas of life. But it’s definitely not that way at all when it comes to dating. Especially if a man is contacting an attractive woman

Anyway I know better than to do that. When a girl reaches out she’s much more likely to agree to hang out and/or do something positive.

I have been texted back and forth about meeting a girl on a date I met a long time ago on a dating app. She’s real (we video chatted once), local and very attractive. She keeps claiming she’s very inexperienced with dating and is extremely shy and introverted. I didn’t believe that at first but as we kept talking I can see it’s true to a certain extent.

However I gave up on her months ago when she stopped responding to my texts (deleted her number). but she surprised me by reaching out 2 weeks ago. I didn’t act overly excited at first but once again I find myself doing most of the texting (not immediately when she texted but a few days later).

I am trying to withdraw from her and wait for her to reach out first. She does always respond when I text her but I don’t want her to getting too comfortable with virtual attention bs.

I figure I’ll back away and wait for her to reach out to me first again. Next time she does I am going to get to the point and set a date. If she gives me any wishy washy response I’ll just call it quits for good this time.
