Dating : Am I being ghosted?
Went on two dates with a girl. I think they went well, but no great opportunity to kiss. Wanted to set up a future date so sent a text to open the dialogue a day after our second date. The text referred to a joke we had been talking about in our second date. She didn’t respond.
Have I been ghosted? Should I try to revive it? I’m leaning towards moving on and maybe I’ll get lucky and she messages me.
If I was into a girl, I would never not respond to a text. So I assume the same for her. The text didn’t have a question, but a simple “lol” or “haha” or “that’s funny” would be the bare minimum. My only hesitation is that sometimes girls, IME, are bad texters (probably due to having a plethora of suitors). I have been able to revive a small percentage of these situations tho.
I guess I’m just scared to get the full ghost by not getting a response to the second (double) text.
Not exactly sure what the content of your text was… But if she was interested in following up from it she would have done so.
How long has it been since the second and last date and most importantly, has she attempted to make any contact whatsoever since then?
What did you do for the first date and the second date?
Was creating an « opportunity to kiss » on your mind throughout the dates you had?
Maybe by answering these questions truthfully better advice can be given.
But going purely on your post Id say yeah, you have been rejected.
All the best,

Try calling instead for texting if she doesn’t pick up, call you back, or even text you back afterwards, you’ve pretty much beeen ghosted.
How long did you know her before the date? Because sometimes people go on dates knowing that they already are talking to someone else that they are more invested in. She may be single but it’s there’s always a favorite if you’re talking to more than one person. Then it could have been a jealousy tactic to make someone else jealous. I (27F) feel like you shouldn’t text her for like a week. I say that because, If you reach out too much or act too invested too early, it may make her feel weirded out.
