As long as the conversation with him is consistent and substantive, within a week.

A girl doesn’t want to be stuck talking to a guy on a dating app for an inordinate amount of time.

Once she realizes that conversations with him are free-flowing, fun, and exhilarating, she wants to meet him in real life fairly soon.

A mistake so many guys make on dating apps is when they take too long to ask a girl out.

After matching with her, he spends too much time exchanging text messages with her, thinking that she wants him to be this patient.

She doesn’t.

If anything, when several weeks go by, and a guy she has been having really good conversations with on a dating app is yet to ask her out, she thinks that he isn’t all that interested in her.

The wrong thoughts get into her head.

He must do this with every girl.

He isn’t serious about meeting her.

He is stoking his ego by keeping her guessing.

She worries that you are playing games with her and this makes her become more cautious in how she interacts with you.

All of a sudden, she isn’t replying to your messages as quickly as she once did.

She isn’t flirting back as often.

She isn’t answering your questions in as much detail.

She isn’t asking you questions as much.

She is pulling away.

One day, she is gone.

She isn’t bothering to reply to your messages at all.

Just like that, the woman you once matched with is no longer a factor in your online dating experience.

She takes it a step further by unmatching with you.

All of a sudden, that pretty face that you got used to seeing every time you saw your match queue is no longer there.

It seems to have happened all so quickly, but it actually didn’t.

You had been chatting with her for several weeks.

She lost her patience and gave up on you.

A woman doesn’t want to talk to a man for too long of a time on a dating app before he asks her out.

She is already inundated with a bevy of messages from other men who want to get to know her.

She has kept several of those men waiting, so as to see whether her time with you is set to bear fruit.

That really kicks off when you ask her out so that she gets to meet you in person.

It is only in person that she knows whether the same chemistry she has had with you on a dating app, is imitated in real life.

Without this knowledge, she doesn’t know.

As a rule of thumb, ask out a woman within a week of matching with her, as long as there have been consistent conversations.

Should she believe she requires more time to get to know you, she lets you know that.

This is fine.

You have put it out there, and she appreciates it.

Once she is sure that she likes what she has been reading and hearing from you on the dating app, it’s possible that she brings up the idea of meeting in person fairly soon after, without any prompting from you.
