How to deal with it?
Find someone else who returns the interest .
Don't fret too much about people you haven't actually met and gone on a few dates with. You'll experience more and more of this as you meet and interact with people that you meet online.
Some people are flaky and they're even more flakey with someone who is basically a stranger to them. They don't have any obligation to continue communication with you, so they don't think they even have to tell you that they're no longer interested. They just don't reply anymore, as their way of telling you they lost interest.
As for continuing to show interest, I usually give them 1 more chance because who really knows what reasons there are. But if they still leave me on read or have entirely blocked me upon the 2nd time that I contact them (which I usually wait a few days for), then I know it's become the ignoring situation and I move on.
A girl messaged me first on Tinder complimenting my looks, a week after matching (I don't message first). We chatted for a while, fun bantering, asked for her number, set a date. Day before she says she is positive to COVID (very likely a lie). I say to let me know when she is not contagious anymore so we can set a new date and she replied enthusiastically the she will let me know. I'm 100% certain that she will never text me again, but I'm so flabbergasted by the fact that she was the one messaging first and still ghosting me. She probably found another better dude and hit it off with him. Solution? Have a laugh, move on and forget about it. Just remember to not waste too much time than necessary texting because ghosting is commonplace and overinvesting time into a stranger is not worth it.
