If a girl you are texting with stops replying and leaves you on read there are two things you can do. Credit to Mark Sing for this approach and here is my interpretation and experience with it.

First off, don’t double text her. If she leaves you on read, you are mentally done with her. She is now dead to you. Have the attitude that you don’t care. Move on. The worst thing you can do is double text her something that shows you care about her not responding.

Secondly, if you actually do care, wait TWO WEEKS and text her again. Allowing time shows that you had other things going on and aren’t needy. It also allows the attraction she had for you to build up, making a response more likely. Waiting two weeks also can resolve any timing issues. It is possible that shit going in her life (maybe was seeing another guy, or dealing with family or work drama, etc) two weeks ago put her in a mental space where she couldn’t or didn’t want to deal with texting you and that has resolved.

When you text her back after at least two weeks of no contact whatsoever, send her something that will make her laugh, that shows you are interested in her, but not needy.

Mark Sing has a great line I learned from one of his podcast that I’ll share. It is “So I was talking to this cool girl, but I think she fell into a black hole, I hope she’s ok…”

I actually tried that exact line with a girl and it worked. The convo resumed. I learned she had been traveling and had been sick. See? Timing issue, not an attraction issue.

You can also use a more situational/custom line which can be better depending on her circumstances. With one I used “Hey so your little midgets back in school yet? Mine are! (Happy face emoji).

That worked and she was so excited and responsive that I texted her. Later we talked and she told me she was overwhelmed with her kids during the summer and one was giving her crap about her dating life so that was the main reason she didn’t text back.

Lastly, make sure you build back the rapport and attraction before moving into asking them out. But do make sure you progress things and don’t aimlessly text them for too many days which can result in them losing attraction again.
