About me, I never really got into the dating game, I'm 28 incel/FA, not a supplicating beta but have low confidence and social anxiety so I'm passive and aloof.
Long story short, got a girls number from plenty of fish on Thursday. She just moved from another state and knows no one. I asked her what her plans were for the weekend and she said she had none because she doesn't know anyone.
I said I might drive up to a mall near her on the weekend and we could meet up, I'd let her know what day I decide. She seemed keen.
So Saturday night I text her to see if she's free on Sunday. No reply. Later that night I log into POF and notice she's not on when usually she is so I assumed she found a date.
No reply all day Sunday until 11:30 pm when she noticed that I was logged into POF, saying she forgot to write back and asking what I did today. I didn't reply.
My immediate reaction to her not replying in the first place would have been to delete her number because yes I admit I got butthurt. I don't want to invest too much into her because she probably got pounded last night by some dude on the first date and I'm not gonna be the sucker taking her out multiple times just for a peck on the cheek.
My options are limited, I don't have my own place so can't invite her over, she lives 35 miles away and I don't know her living situation, if we do drinks at a bar I can't drive back home.
So the question is the title of the thread. How do I reply and not seem butthurt so I can keep her as a possible option. Or do I go with my gut and delete her number?
