Recovery texts

[SoSerene]

Anyone have any good advice/lines to use to text a girl if she suddenly went ghost? This is more common in online dating of course, where they have lots of options but I think it's a good skill to have to recover leads that were interested at one point but something got in the way. Hopefully there are some good ways to grab their attention again!

Usually I'll try a couple different avenues, say if they don't respond to a text, then maybe 24 hours later give them a call. If they don't answer either, not sure if I should move on and/or re-engage at a later date.

Attention is your currency. If she pulls back 10 feet, you pull back 10 miles. There's no such thing as a "recovery text" when she ignores you. That will only push her farther away.

Texty games = no game.

Call her.

With the phone.

Leave a message when she doesn't answer.

Then forget about her.

Pay attention to a woman's actions.

Don'tr try to keep someone who doesn't want to keep you bro. You don't chase women who run from you.

ive succeeded in restarting conversations with women that have gone ghost many times but I have NEVER managed to see/bang this women again after they went ghost. Girls like the attention of you trying to get ahold of them, but if they went ghost, they lost interest.....move on son.

A woman doesn't go ghost when there's interest. If she's interested, she will contact you herself.

I disagree that if she's interested, she will contact you 100% of the time. A lot of you are underestimating circumstances that would cause her to not follow up. For instance, what if she's seeing someone else? What if you were away for a couple weeks and forgot about you? What if she met someone new who is better looking? Doesn't necessarily she isn't interested, the timing could not be right.

This is especially the case for cold approach leads/online girls you haven't been out with yet. You don't know how many other guys she's seeing. She hasn't invested anything in you so why should she feel obligated?

It'd be a different scenario if you go out with a girl 2-3 times, then she just goes ghost. Especially if it was after a mediocre or bad date, that's totally understandable. But if you haven't officially gone out with a chick yet, there can be many barriers to entry (pun intended) that have nothing to do with her not being interested.

Hmm i agree with with the posts she's not that interested & found Vlad's post amusing, but like a couple other guys said sometimes theres no harm in texting her again as i myself have done & a month down the line had the same chick highly attracted to me

I must add that majority of the time if she hasn't replied she aint interested & the second text, third text have also been ignored

Couple of texts I've tried/used in situations like this. :-

Example1 "Wow you must be the slowest texter EVER Hurry up!"

I use these out of a last chance shot type of thing. At this point when I'm sending these texts i know the game is already up & I'm just fuc*ing about to see if i can spark her up.

Example2 "Hi I'm going out for a drive with Julie, Lynsey & Ashley. Wanna come?

I think the second one is the best. First one is lame =) I think texts like the second one which are out there different, grab their attention & they reply & then you're a little bit back in...then maybe try some C&F :S
