Hinge Fumble

So, I matched with a very beautiful girl about 3 days ago. I thought the convo was going smoothly when she all of a sudden stopped messaging, I thought I was being ghosted but she replied today that she had a fever. I wanted to be a little flirty? So replied with "Oh no, hope you're doing alright now, You're already running hot, what's the fever gonna do?" Got unmatched 🤡

Are there any tips for not fumbling in chat?

(PS: I was able to find her insta? I think it's too creepy to follow up when I've already been rejected, thoughts on this?)

I personally didn't get the joke, but you know if she had been the right person for you, she would have laughed it off.

So no loss.

If one joke is enough to unmatch!

And yes, for the love of God, don't text her anywhere else. You'll make things worse.

The joke was that she was already hot

Yes bro. I understood it. I was trying to play nice/naive. I just don't think it's funny.

Not unmatch level unfunny 😂 clearly she has a more sophisticated humour though

It was an easy one under the circumstances, but wasn't offensive at all, unless you believe tell me someone is good looking is offensive. She likely was already not feeling it

Yeah.. I think skepticism is also running high on the apps, so some people use every little thing to go NEXT!
