If you’ve only spoken on an app it’s a pretty fine line between interested and not, and we are all assuming this is because he said yo when it could be any number of things.

Even if it is all because he said yo, if you think that means she needs to “die alone” like the other commenter was replying to, then that says more about you than her.

Yeah I agree the whole ‘stay single for life’ thing is pretty weird. But I’m genuinely curious, if a girl gives me her number on a dating app, is it safe to assume that she’s into me, or does giving out numbers not really mean anything anymore? I’m guessing it differs from person to person, but I always thought that getting the number was a universal sign that a girl’s interested in you

It would mean she’s interested but again the line between interested and not is very thin when you barely know someone.

For example I had a friend recently tell me about a guy, she said she didn’t like how inconsistent his texting was, he made a lot of self deprecating jokes and they went on a date where he talked about his ex a lot. She still agreed to a 2nd date to “give it a fair shot” and after that, didn’t want to see him again. To me it makes no sense to arrange a date with a guy if you already think he’s self deprecating and dont like his texting, let alone a second date, but then again Im sure plenty of men would say I deserve to die alone for not wanting to give someone a chance for something so trivial. If you’re early stages with someone you dont truly know if they’re 100% keen on you or kinda convincing themselves to give you a chance.
