Wouldn’t they respond if I was interesting enough?

It's natural to feel disappointed or hurt when someone doesn't respond to your message, but it's important to remember that there are many reasons why someone might not respond that have nothing to do with you. For example, they might be busy, not interested in dating right now, or simply not in the right headspace to respond.

Additionally, it's important to remember that dating apps are a numbers game. Even if you're an interesting and engaging person, not everyone you message will respond, simply because they may not be looking for the same thing or they may have different preferences.

It's also important to remember that you are more than just the sum of your dating app interactions. You have inherent worth and value as a person, regardless of whether someone you message on a dating app responds or not.

If you find yourself taking it personally when someone doesn't respond, try to reframe your thinking. Instead of assuming that it's because of something about you, remind yourself that there are many factors at play and that it's not a reflection of your worth as a person. Focus on the positive interactions you've had on the app and keep an open mind about potential matches in the future.
