No, no she is not.

She is giving mostly one word answers.

At no point does she attempt anything like a 'yes, and' into her own questions.

She does not take the time to give a more elaborate, multi sentence response, that includes maybe some more context or details.

...

Could the dude be asking more interesting questions?

Yes.

Could she be giving more boring answers?

No, unless you just count blocking/ghosting as 'answers'.

...

The dude is correctly sensing that she is extremely not interested in this, because she is diplaying no signs of interest, and the dude is stating this, by telling her that she is not engaged in the conversation...

And by using a bit of an analogy to do so, he is actually demonstrating some creativity, a bit of wit, though it is a bit pointed toward her.

I agree but am confused by one thing: Why did he start off with "nice chat"?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 weeks ago

I have two guesses, maybe kinda 3:

1 - Could be the tail end, a most recent part of a longer chat log.

2 - Could be that it just was a kind of dickish, awkward way to start a convo...

but...

2.5 - If this is from something like Hinge, if I am not mistaken, the entire concept is... or... was?

... that women actually have to send the first message after matching, or at the very least, them clicking 'accept' on a guy, automatically opens the chat.

So it could be something like that, and this guy could be like... ok... she matched with me... the whole point is she is supposed to make the first move... and then he is sarcastically remarking 'nice chat' as a reference to her technically having started this convo, and ... then just not said anything, for presumably some amount of time.

.........

I really do not know at all, as is is often the case with screen caps like this, we are likely missing a lot of potentially very important context.

'hey sorry at work, will chat later!'

not that hard.

EDIT:

Stop sending texts are they said working. Not that hard.

That doesn't even parse as an intelligible sentence.
