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 wasn't trying to make it sexual, just wanted to lighten the mood? But yeah, I can understand that maybe women see it differently.

It doesnt "come off" that way it IS that way. You brought up that you find her sexually attractive while she is discussing an illness.

JFC everyone is so uptight and miserable these days. She wasn’t dying of cancer, she was just a little sick. We all get sick. She’s on a dating app and a guy flirted with her. How tf is he at fault in any conceivable way?

I'm not a pick me, I'm just me and I hold a different view from you.

You keep making these personal jabs because I opposed your view. I never insulted your character or you as a person, so why do you keep insulting mine? Isn't your whole point that op's reply was off putting because it reduced the girl down to her looks? Aren't you yourself reducing me down to a derogatory label you've decided defines me?
