What does it mean when a girl takes a day to reply to texts and will only send one text a day?

[Anonymous]

I sent a girl a note to say I would like to get to know her and to contact me if she was interested. She texted me the day after and thanked me for the note etc. I then text her back and asked her when she wanted to meet up and she text back a day later to say she was away this week but to text her next week as meeting up would be great. I text her back almost straight away and said thanks, will do are you going anywhere nice? And the conversation went dead. Is she trying to make me want her more by making me wait or trying not too seem to keen. How often should I text her?

Could she just be nervous as we've met but never really spoken? We don't really know each other...

It seems if she were Really hept and Into you, she would respond with More enthusiasm , and when she replied the first and second time, she was most likely being polite. If everything went 'dead with silence,' she has put you on her pay no mind list, which I always find is rude and crude. If someone doesn't really want to hook up just to meet up, then why give mixed signals? She most likely didn't know how to say "I don't think so."
If you don't hear anything, don't bother contacting her again. In my book, she Still owes you an answer, and from what it seems, she thinks in her Mind she has given you one with her-------- 'dead end' nothing.
However, to be fair, if she Does happen to push a button, and it appears to be lame excuses, then you know where you stand for sure.
Good luck. xx

If someone doesn't respond right away I try not to assume anything and acknowledge they have a life and may be away from their phone. However, I think sometimes, girls don't say exactly how they feel because it may sound hurtful. The fact that she is giving simple answers and may have said an excuse to avoid meeting up doesn't sound like she likes you. If the note was the first time you spoke to her, she may be nervous to meet a "stranger." I would maybe wait a day or two and try to have a meaningful conversation with her but If she continues to avoid hanging out, she probably doesn't like you.

She is the daughter of a friend of my fathers, I have never really 'spoken' to her apart from the note I sent her. She does always put an x on the end of her text but I am not convinced it means anything

Most are saying she is either shy or doesn't like you, but she could just be like me; I really don't like texting much and if someone texts me sometimes I won't even reply at all.. if they want to talk to me I'd rather they call me or talk to me in person. I feel a bit of a disconnect when I'm just typing and reading words rather than hearing their voice, you know? But most would consider me a "strange" girl or a tomboy, hahah.
But the question is-- is she more of a girly girl or what?

[Asker]

Would you do this even if you really liked the guy? I don't think she is a girly girl. Perhaps she has a bf?

[tragicallyinlove]

this is just my opinion: if a girl truly likes you she will go out of her way to text you and will text you as much as she can. She would also try to hang out with you if possible. It sounds like this girl doesn't really like you in that way and she's trying to let you down easy.

[Asker]

Thanks, how can I tell for sure?

[tragicallyinlove]

Well if you keep asking her to hang out and she keeps making excuses or avoiding it she doesn't like you. If she keeps not texting you or replying to your question. Any girl that likes you shy or not would answer your question. As long as its a good question. If she starts texting you more regularly that is a better sign that she likes you.

[Asker]

the note was literally the first time I had 'spoken' to her so maybe she's just wary/nervous

[tragicallyinlove]

Maybe. She might also be busy and not have much time for a conversation. Only time will tell. I wish you the best of luck!

[Theguyoverthere]

She just don't mind the attention you're giving her. That's all. Don't bother with her as she seems like a waste of time.

[yesmylove]

Sorry dude seems like she isn't intrested. When girls are really intrested they would want to text you all the time and not take a whole day to reply. But I mean to be positive that she doesn't like you wait and see if she gets back to you about meeting up.

Oh okay got you. Well just wait for her to get back to u about the date and if she never doesn't then maybe u can try one more time to ask her and if she says nothing the second time it's a done deal.

[carebearagent]

Um... She might like you, but she has other things going on. I don't think that she is THAT busy to make you wait another extra day. I know for a fact that you like her way more than she likes you. I don't believe she is as attentive as you think she is. Try calling.

I sometimes text a day later when I'm nervous and doesn't want to ruin anything. It really isn't about making him want me more, it's just because I'm shy. Another reason might be that she is busy and there are other things on her mind right now, even though she wants to meet up with you. But the third possibility is that she is not into you, unfortunately.
Text her again next week and ask if she can meet up and then you can see if she likes you or not.

[fleur-de-lys]

Well, I'm like her. I think she has a life, activities and friends and she seems interested enough to answer and show some interest. She is not desperate

[dark-night]

maybe she is busy , shy , trying to make u want her more
I did that once with a guy but not for all those reasons I was waiting another guy to ask me out !

[daiii]

Well... doesn't look like she's that interested in you.. BUT she's interested enough to meet up with you. Work your magic then :)

[kewkewsie]

girls play games this is true she is just putting off hurting your feelings

[luna33]

It means she is not interested.
