So, few  I have a guy friends who ask  girls out by sending texts, and they girls usually respond with a simple,  "K". Then nothing ever happens. I can't tell where the breakdown in communication is, but I'm thinking the whole texting thing is the major culprit.
It seems like an easier way to communicate without having to have a lot of feelings, but in reality, you have to have more feelings, because things get misinterpreted.
I have found that being direct, authentic, straight forward and honest has been the most exhausting  for me  at first. But in reality, it's just tiring for the short time right after you do it , but it's like a muscle, the more you do it, the stronger it gets.
But, the other way is actually more exhausting, becuase it's like a dull tired, and you never really get anywhere if  you are not direct.
You stay frustrated and wonder why you don't get what you want.
Sometimes I wonder,at least for myself, if I was more comfortable with being in the yearning, always wishing, instead of having.
Which brings me around to my friend, when the girl says" k" is he supposed to follow up?
I'm guessing yes. It takes a lot to put yourself out there, but the results are usually worth it.
I have found that showing up for myself can be exhausting sometimes, but it's the only way that I get what I want.
Ask and you shall receive.
