Being that you are the one making all the effort to initiate conversations and ask questions, it doesn’t do you any good to keep at it.
The idea behind signing up on a dating app is to find a partner.
A big part of finding a partner requires robust communication between parties, as you attempt to get to know each other better.
When all of the effort to get to know this person is coming from your end, there is no justifiable reason to keep making this effort.
Yes, it’s time to stop communicating.
Ghosting is too negative a word to use in this situation.
You are not the bad guy here.
You have been the one making all the effort to initiate conversations and ask questions.
That is a good thing.
It’s hard to believe that you are ghosting this person, when you are the one who has been putting out all the effort.
This is effort that hasn’t been reciprocated on her part.
By ending all this effort, you are sending the subliminal message that she has to put out the effort too.
Supposedly, she joined the dating app to find a partner.
In leaving it all to you to initiate conversations and ask questions, she is demonstrating a reluctance to put out the effort to find said partner.
That isn’t your fault.
It’s hers.
Unfortunately, in scenarios like this, you are dealing with a woman who falls into two categories.
She is either on a dating app for the attention, so as to boost her ego, or she is prioritizing other matches over you.
In the first case, she is on a dating app to boost her ego so as to make herself feel good.
It isn’t out of the question that a girl with this sentiment already has a boyfriend in the real world.
She is on a dating app to get the recognition she is no longer getting in the same amount as she once did from her boyfriend.
It is about ego-stroking.
Her matches are tools.
She cares less about finding a partner, given that all she wants is to be made to feel like she remains desirable.
Unfortunately, she lets you do all the work.
In tersely replying to your messages, she is hoping to string you along.
The idea is to keep you initiating and putting in all the effort.
She has no intention of reciprocating your efforts.
She is leading you on, hoping you keep stroking her ego by putting out all the effort.
Once she has had a fill of your attention and adulation, she ditches you to the side and finds her next victim.
The next category is the girl who isn’t prioritizing you.
This is a girl who is putting out the effort with guys she is more attracted to.
These are guys she has a greater desire for than you.
She is initiating conversations with these guys and asking them questions.
Meanwhile, she lets you keep putting out all the effort to initiate conversations with her and ask her questions.
This is how she keeps you on the back burner, her insurance policy so to speak.
Should her conversation with the guys she has prioritized over you not work out, she has you to fall back on.
Don’t get your hopes up though.
Girls like this have multiple guys prioritized over you, making it unlikely she ever takes you seriously and puts out an effort.
