What do you do when someone added you on LinkedIn after your tailored networking request but doesn't respond to your message to set up a call?

Kinda flustered with this: They add you on LinkedIn after my tailored message for coffee chats, but when I go set up calls, they don't respond. I follow up again after two weeks, still no response.

Why the f**k did you add me in the first place then?

Should I follow up again?

^ + it’s never just one person to connect with. Keep going and connect with others.

You’re losing focus of ur getting caught up on just one small interaction
