Texts went from paragraphs to 'ha yeah.' I do not want to chase. I also do not want to ghost myself.
Busy exists. Losing interest also exists, and it often looks like delayed, shorter, less curious messages without a sentence about it. A man who wants another date will make a next date, even in a brutal week. 'Ha yeah' is not a schedule. It is a fade. You can ask once. You should not perform enthusiasm for two.
The body knows before the story does. If you are writing novels to keep the thread warm, you are already doing both jobs. Ask a clean question: 'Want to set something for Thursday, or is this fizzling?' Their answer, including silence, is the information.
Send one scheduling text. If you do not get a time, close the tab. Do not decode 'ha yeah' for a week.
