I'm sure everyone's experienced this at least a couple of times. I texted her an hour before our scheduled date and didn't get a response. Two hours later she writes back with this:

Her: Gooosh
Her: I forgot to answeeeer
Her: I'm not in town right now
Me: It's okay. I figured maybe you had to work on short notice or something.

Another couple hours later she writes:

Her: I'm sooo sorrryyyy
Me: Eh don't worry about it. Things come up. It's no biggie :)
Her: It issa haha
Her: I feel so bad
Me: Don't feel bad. It happens

I know Chase says not to reschedule on the spot and wait a little while. It has now been two days since and I'm wondering how long I should wait before I reschedule or do I wait for her to reschedule?

Also, if I do reach out to her, should I get straight to the point of making another date in my next message?

Thanks in advance.

I wait two days myself unless the girl proposes a date sooner than that. I think you handled it well and the girl at least acts like she is sorry so another date ia definetely on the table.

As to your second question yeah go for it. Write something personal in the first sentence then ask her out again. Such as: "Hey X! Hope you kicked ass in the Y thing (that she mentioned before). How about we grab that drink we missed out on ;)"

Good luck!

If a girl is romatically or sexually interested it is highly unlikely she would have forgotten. Not sure how your in-person interaction went. If you have other options move on otherwise try to schedule again without much expectations

In case You plan to try meeting her again I would message her something on this line . "I liked talking to you about "x,y.z(whatever subject you guys talked about) "and would like to continue it. I am planning to be at this "lounge or a bar" Friday around 6. If you can make it the drinks are on me ." See how she responds and take it from there . This would show you are not going to be in pursuit after her and she needs to do her part.
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake

Thanks sandman! I suggested we get the drink we missed out on and she offered me to join her and her friends for their night out. I declined and tried for another day but she's still being flakey. I might try what you said dcman, and offer her to meet somewhere. Other than that, I think I'm done with this one.

Thanks for your help, guys!

Hi Tree,

her attraction level for you seems to be low. It could be for a number of reasons but most likely a guy. What I suggested earlier would not work at this point. Try taking away her attention and see how she responds. Send her something around these lines " send me the pictures of your friends. if they are cool I can try to meet up with you guys :)" see how she responds. sometimes when the attention is taken away from a girl her attraction may increase or if her friends are cool and she is willing to provide social proof with the other girls go for it.
