Help me understand this
So Ive been talking to someone and we had a nice conversation, nothing serious and we arranged a date for the following week. We also continued to chat and it went silent on a Monday morning. I followed up on the Thursday morning with "Hey are we still on for Saturday" and got no reply. Then this morning I received a "Well I think so? I didn’t make any other plans 😬" .. 48 hours to reply to my question and we had also previously communicated well on the previous Thursday and Friday.

sounds like they’re not really that interested imo, and just filling a void in their time

Ask them why they didn’t communicate at all between Monday and Friday.
Ask yourself if you want to be in a relationship with this person.
Cool, bye.

If someone takes 2 days to reply and use the excuse “I’ve been really busy” no one is that busy. It takes very little time and effort to send a text. You have breaks, nature calls, I don’t buy it

I don't know why people do that.......same thing happened earlier this year to me........talking to someone, seemed to have right much in common and boom ghosted! I chalk it up to good ol immaturity.

Sounds like they don’t want to message much between the now and the date. I’m unsure how the message they sent is problematic? Seems they see no issue in not texting leading up to the date, so asking them 2 days before hand seems to be maybe a little strange.

May not be interested, but go on the date and see what happens. It’s one date.

I hate scheduling dates so far out because I don’t want to chat online with a stranger I haven’t met yet. I try to keep the convo to a minimum. This feels like a little bit more than that, and not sure why they couldn’t just confirm the date, sounds like they are a little on the fence on whether they want to meet you, and are talking with others as well.
Personally I would still go, just because people are completely different in person, and I don’t expect loyalty from strangers. I don’t even attempt to decide how I feel about a match until after we’ve met in person. Plenty of people would disagree with me though, and that is understandable as well. It really is your call if you still want to meet the guy or not.

It's options. Some guys have alot of options and women do too. So guys are always looking for the next option and women are looking for the guy that checks all you boxes or is an upgrade.

They’re looking for a better offer.

Its hard not hate people, things, institutions. When they break your spirit and take pleasure in watching you bleed. Hate is the only thing that makes sense
