Ghosted by 10 at PE conference as well-next steps

As above,  sent a message no reply.

Hit it off she gave me her number, told her i would call her in messages she thought it was gr8, later when i tried to set up said call got ghosted. Not technically as on whatsapp i can tell she hasnt seen the message

She has a 9-5, like me.

Double message, or cold call?

Sorry for your L. 

After critical review, your post leads me to believe you have no rizz. Fine to send her another text to set up dinner/drinks. Space it out a few days. Texting her to arrange a time to speak on a call is weird/formal. Be more casual/blasé.

Godspeed, soldier.

Appreciate the insight Cap.

She hasnt seen the message. On whatsapp
