She may have agreed to the date but she may still be actively communicating with other guys while online dating.
Women tend to receive a lot more messages on an online dating site than guys do.
Hence, she may be responding to messages from guys and that is using up a good chunk of the time that she spends while online dating.
As a result, she may sometimes not respond to your texts for long periods of time.
Simply because she agreed to a date with you doesn’t automatically mean that she is going to start focusing all of her energy on you.
This woman was most likely actively using the online dating site to communicate with other guys before you asked her on the date.
Hence, she will not feel the need to stop that behavior.
She doesn’t know how the date with you will go.
She may have agreed to it because she thinks that there is some promise in you.
Perhaps she has enjoyed her conversations with you on the online dating site.
However, she really doesn’t know whether the both of you will have real life chemistry when you both meet on the date.
As far as she is concerned, that date may end up being a disappointment.
This woman may have already had some past experience with this.
She may have met guys while online dating that she seemed to really get along with.
She may have discovered that she had a lot in common with these guys and the conversations on the online dating site may have flowed very easily.
This may have gotten her hopes up in anticipation of what a real life meeting with the guy would be like.
However, she may have gone on dates with some of these guys and the dates just didn’t work out.
Perhaps the guys just weren’t as charming as they were on the online dating site or there may have simply been no real life chemistry.
This woman may be totally aware that this is something that could also happen with you.
Hence, sometimes, she may not respond to your texts for long periods of time because she doesn’t want to fall into the trap of becoming too excited about you.
She may have fallen into this trap with the last guy that she met while online dating.
They may have agreed to a date and she may have proceeded to text him very regularly and devote all of her time to him.
After all that excitement and anticipation, they may have ultimately met on a date and there was simply no chemistry.
She may not want to make this mistake again.
By sometimes not responding to your texts for long periods of time, she may be trying to keep herself from getting carried away with you.
She doesn’t want to dramatically increase her anticipation, only to become disappointed with the end result.
Hence, she is focusing on messaging other guys and taking longer to respond to your texts so that she doesn’t set herself up for disappointment.
This woman may have agreed to a date but sometimes doesn’t respond to your texts for long periods of time because your texts may not be enticing her to respond.
She may feel that the texts that you are sending her are just really boring and uninspiring.
Hence, she doesn’t typically feel compelled to respond to them in a timely fashion.
Being that she has agreed to a date with you, she may feel obligated to respond to the texts at some point. However, she responds to them eventually but it takes her a while.
She may already be getting the impression that you would be a boring date.
However, she isn’t entirely sure about what to do at this stage.
If she keeps up with this kind of behavior, there is a good chance that she will ultimately cancel on this date that has already been agreed upon by the both of you.
