I've exchanged a few emails with this girl, she definitely seemed interested and all her replies were written with effort as suppose to the half assed replies girls usually give if they aren't interested. She also asked quite a lot of questions instead of just me. We've definitely got a lot of common interests.

So then I ask her to meet up for a drink sometime and she replies that she thought she was but isn't ready to meet someone online yet for personal reasons.

Obviously I'm gonna start messaging other girls but I don't wanna just totally forget about this girl as I think there's potential that she may change her mind later on. I'm even happy to keep her as an acquaintance for now. The more females I know the better to broaden my network.

How should I proceed with this girl? I haven't replied to her yet.

I'm thinking of being like "Ah ok na its cool, no worries at all. You may feel ready later on, I'm always open to getting to know more people."

That's probably a crap response but my mind is blank right now lol...
