Am I the one who mess up the game? What should I do?

[Anonymous]

I met this guy 3 months ago online. I like him quite much. He flirted with me at the beginning, but I didn't really flirt back cuz I was not good at flirting. Recently he started to not reply my messages. Did I make him lose interest because I didn't flirt back and might make him feel "friend-zoned"? If so, what should I do to win him back? Did waste my chance by saying things only in a "friend" way and didn't flirt back? Should I blame myself?

Its less about the not flirting and more about the treating him like a friend. He read that as you not be interested in him sexually or romantically.
Just reach back out. Be upfront and communicative. Express interest in moving forward into something with him.

No one is really going to know because we were not there. I think you’re going to have to figure this one out on your own. Best-

Yes, you should blame yourself.

The only way to fix it now is to reach out and try to re-initiate the conversation. But you have to show more effort. And be clear in expressing your interest. Don't be vague.

Don't play the blame game.

Sorry, what do you mean by this? You mean I shouldn't blame myself?

Yes, that is what I mean.
