How do I keep them engaged on a dating app?

Dating apps are 80% your pictures 5% profile and 15% messages.

Meaning you arent going to talk someone int finding you attractive but you will talk them out of it. When I'm single on the dating apps I gotta say my success went up but batting average went down over the years. You need to move on and keep in mind even with bumble, which I've never used but understand women have to initiate conversation... the growing acceptance of online dating has turned it into an attention farm like social media does. You need to land a date and meet someone and use that data to gauge your interactions. If dates turn into fucking on the first date use that data. You have to make the data though and one chick on a dating app isnt shit.

So I asked for her number, but she hasn't replied after 3 days.

You got next'd. Move on.

It always takes her about 1-2 days to reply, but the conversation was good and she was responding positively, lots of "hahaha"s, etc.

1-2 days waits between replies aren't a conversation.

If it always takes her 1 - 2 days to reply she isn't very interested. She just likes the extra attention you are giving her. If she went dead after asking for her number it is a clear sign that she isn't interested.

Life is too short for dealing with people who show no interest in you.

The best way to deal with dating apps, unless you are blessed with top tier genetic beauty, is to get off of them.

If she wanted to give you her number she would have. Move on.
You cannot generate any real attraction over text. Don't spend much time on it at all. The goal of the text game should be to escalate.

Dont chase her. Let her respond. If she doesnt then fuck her. You should have plenty of other options that you are talking to anyways.

It sounds like her interest level is around a 5. You should be focusing on 7+. The only way to increase her IL is on a date. You cant do it over an app or text.

You're just another source of attention/validation to her.

Which means she's not interested in you.

Don't accept that.

Fuck that.

Go spend your time and attention on a girl that wants to fuck you.
