I (27m) went out with this woman (30f) I met on Bumble back in November, and we had an amazing first date. We had dinner at a fancy restaurant, went out for drinks, bowled, and cruised around town for a bit afterwards. We exchanged numbers, and she told me she would love to go on a second date. We made a plan to go to an event the next week, but for some reason that didn't end up happening.
Sometimes, it would take her a day to get back to me (all of those texts would start with "Hey sorry I've been meaning to get back to you" or something), which is understandable given she told me she works two jobs and only really has one day off a week. But when I asked if our second date was still on, I didn't get a reply until the day after the event was over, and once again she apologized for being so out of touch and said that she had had a lot going on that week, but said she would like to get together again. I asked her when would be a good time for her, because the holidays were coming up, and I never heard back. About a week later, I sent one last text asking if she would still like to go out again, and never got anything back.
The thing is, she never unmatched with me on Bumble, even to this day. I know her account is not dead, because out of curiosity, I took a look at her profile and she had updated her bio and some of the photos. I know it's been a long time since we had gone out, but I really feel like I clicked with her, and that hasn't happened for a long time. It didn't seem like she didn't like me, just that she had a lot going on and it slipped her mind.
As much as I want to reach back out and hopefully reconnect, the realist in me is saying it's been too long at this point and I need to move on. I know she and I are little more than acquaintances, but after finding someone that I really felt like I had a deep connection with, I don't want to miss an opportunity since that hasn't really happened again since.
TL;DR I had an amazing first date with someone in November, we wanted to do a second date but fell out of contact, and I want to reconnect again but don't know if I should.
