Dude this happens more often than not. Like I’d say 1 in every 10 or 20 numbers that I get leads to a date. Most don’t respond. Many do then just stop. Par for the course unfortunately

Yep most numbers lead nowhere. They give out their number like candy and simply don't reply if you aren't high on the priority list.

It’s normal specially when your goal was to get the number as soon as possible.
Most guys get flaky numbers that don’t lead anywhere because they only talk like 1 minute with the girl and immediately ask for her number and then walk away.

That’s the thing tho I was talking to her for like 5 mins made some jokes she said some back got to knew her a lil... that’s why I’m like maybe I talked too much or maybe I stumbled with my words? I hate how I tounge twist myself too, whenever that happens I get nervous and it’s harder for me to think, maybe that’s why she isn’t texting me? It’s like damn I’m way different then that one convo don’t judge me off of that, that’s what I feel when I get rejected like damn you don’t even know how I really am or act I’m a genuinely cool dude and I always felt like ppl don’t wanna see my potiental or sum shit .. that’s why I’m stuck up on this feeling that she gave me her # for no reason

Perhaps the content of the conversation wasn’t as fun or interesting to her as you think it was and she was just being polite.
Women look for reasons not to go out with a guy before sex, whereas they look for reasons to make it work after sex.
In other words, women are low risk investors, as soon as they see a red flag, or feel nothing when they interacted with you, they pass.
That’s why they don’t care about your potential. Because their focus before sex is on looking for reasons to avoid investing in you.

Some women like flirting and enjoy your attention and just think it’s funny that you texted. Some will be so intimidates that they wont answer because they just know it will never work.
I would stop trying to figure out what other people are thinking and respond to actions. -she did not respond, therefore you move on. Easy! Any other reaction is chasing your tail.

I feel embarrassed because she works at a shop I always go to, dont know if I should go back
NEVER feel embarrassed or ashamed of showing interest in a girl! Go to the shop, make eye contact, have a friendly smile and wave or say "hi" like its no big deal. Just act like nothing happened lol. Its only going to be weird if you make it weird. Most likely she'll mirror your emotions. If you feel awkward she'll feel awkward. Even if she starts off looking nervous just keep your relaxed friendly body language and eventually she'll realize everything is fine and reciprocate. Don't bring up her not replying. You can act as if you didn't even notice. Its not a big deal so don't make it one lol.

Move on, its just like online dating. They will often give numbers or say pleasant things because they don’t want to hurt your feelings. Its not personal, they just aren’t into you.
You did you job, you found out what you wanted to know.

I thought cold approach was more efficient than old lol

Happens all the time. Happened to me after months of flirting and talking to a woman and she gave me her number. I didn’t even ask for it. Yea, they’re an interesting gender. Don’t play their games, delete the number and move on.

It's normal that's why you learn to be efficient and not caught up on one girl
Getting your first few numbers is exciting. Then it becomes almost pointless
Because you'll learn the best option is an insta date or scheduling a date right on the spot and getting a number is like last resort option instead of a primary goal

As a girl I never respond to text from strangers guys who asked my number in the street. The only reason I give it to them in the first place is cause I’m scared of agressive reactions if I refuse. As soon as I receive a text from a guy like this, I block the number. So yeah maybe this is what happened here, idk

It typically means that you showed fear during your approach or you sabotaged yourself (talking too much, saying something stupid, etc.). Most often guys don't read any of the signs. If they took the time to read body language then 10 out of 10 approaches would be successful and you wouldn't need to approach more than 1-2 times a week.

Bullshit. He could have done everything right, maybe she just didn't like him that much. Sometimes we blame ourselves for failing but the reality is its all in the womans power to say yes no matter how great your approach game was.
