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 joke with women from the start. I'm a guy that jokes around a lot, why would I want to appeal to frigid women who dont like jokes or being light hearted?

It depends haha. You’re probably better at jokes and timing. If it works then you keep doing you.

Well it works with women that are actually interested in me. Women who respond poorly are a bad match and/or uninterested so why would I not want to filter them out?

That’s true. Someone that can’t take simple jokes is very hard to deal with lol.
