Had a girl I was talking to through online dating, got her contact, texted a bit and she seemed pretty interested and agreed to a date, but on the day of the date, when I sent a "confirmation" text she said that she wasn't ready to meet today. I realize I probably screwed up along the way at some point, but how would I best proceed from here?

I told her no worries and we'd do a rain check and she gave a like to the message. i feel like the typical advise would be to give it a few days then try and schedule another date, but since it's potentially a comfort thing, should I be looking to actually text her some, in order to build up that comfort?

A number of things could be happening.

one it could be a lack of attraction, if you were clooney, she’d sure as he’ll be ready to meet - so it could be down to your text game

or

it could be she’s butt ugly, looks nothing like her pictures and wants your pandering and attention. She knows once you meet you’ll go running for cover and won’t want to know

She had date anxiety and buyer remorse most likely due to the way you were going about setting up the date and fucking up with the confirmation text, or you make the date to far in advance, best thing to do is to post the text logs I will tell you were you fucked up... but flakiness happens a lot, maybe she met or is more interested in someone else.. but post logs, best thing to do
 
you miss 100% of the shots you don't take

What would you want to see? Everything or specific parts?

As Skills said, a new guy is in the picture.

If she is super keen to meet you, but has logistical issues, she will give you an alternative.

You could follow up, and end up meeting her.

However, she would turn up harder to lay, or retain as compared to another DTF chick who fancies you

I agree with all that. I don't get many matches currently though so I feel like it's worth bothering with, honestly I need the practice over everything
