This lady I'm talking to deleted her Hinge (how we started) but gave me her number and still talks to me there. Is this a green flag?

I started talking to this one lady on Hinge and we hit it off. She gave me her phone number pretty early into the conversation and we started talking through texts. A few days later, she either deletes her Hinge, or unmatches me on there. (I think the former is more likely). But, as of this message, we still text each other, I've seen plenty of photos of her, and we even agreed to a date. I was taught to keep your options open early on and talk to many different ones, but it seems like she deleted her profile because she's interested in me and only wants me. I think this is a green flag. Would you agree?

UPDATE: Without me directly asking about it, she told me her Hinge got banned, so that's why her profile isn't on there anymore. So this question is now pointless. Thank you for your help, though.

It's definitely positive because she is interested, but don't assume that she is only interested in you- she could have had bad experiences on the app and just decided to give her number to guys she's interested in.

it’s textbook catfishing how are we so naive, people? 😅😅

Definitely

so this opinion is definitely sarcastic or ironic.

it’s a red flag. online dating doesn’t work that way

she unmatched you so you can’t tell when she was last online or what her location is or whatever. and anyone wanting to get off the app early on and is responsive and wants to “focus on each other” is a catfish

in time you’ll believe me but in the meantime be careful and good luck

Well, I figured out earlier why exactly she isn't on the app anymore, and she told me on her own without me asking. Somehow she got banned from Hinge. She asked me if I got any emails telling me to block her, which I didn't. So I'm likely gonna disavow this question when I can.

et voila. there you have it

onwards and upwards don’t even worry about it. better luck next time
