Maybe she didn't respond because you don't have the cojones to ask her in person.
AM I RITE GUYS
No, but you could be "right".
I would not respond to someone asking me to go somewhere from a text either.
If you are not brave enough to ask me in the flesh, face to face for a date then the answer is always going to be no.
I got rejected. If a girl asked me to go do something, I would be flattered whether I'm into her or not. How dare she disrespect me by not even responding. She could have at least said "Sorry I appreciate the offer but I'm going to pass" or something.

You do not get to dictate the behaviors other people choose engage in.
It's nice that you would be flattered if asked out by text, but that doesn't mean everyone else will feel the same.
Choosing to see her behavior as "disrespectful" and getting all bent out of shape about it is a choice you can make, though moving on and saying "NEXT!" is a wiser use of your time

I spelled it "rite" because of the Internet term "am i rite"...I'm a writer so I better know how to spell
While my post was sort of trollish and I do generally have more sympathy for those who get rejected, I think people really need to understand that there are still a few things in this world that shouldn't be communicated via text. Asking someone out by texting them isn't really brave at all (like CSD said)...I mean, it's pretty high school.
Had you asked her out in person and she just walked away, you may have had a point.

Maybe he's a young guy.
How do you know he's not 19 years old and has never had a GF before? And people are gonna say something like, "People who don't have the guts to approach me with full confidence get none of my time because I don't respect them."
Rough.
Now, don't get me wrong. I understand the world is like that and people are like that, but I am more than double that age. Still, it's like people don't remember when they were nervous around the opposite sex and they never remember their own vulnerabilites.
Personally, if a woman were too shy to ask me out in person and needed to do it in text, I would find it endearing to an extent. Life is so full of huff and puff blowhards who are always trying to get the last word in over you and telling you how much more they know than you, etc.

It isn't a matter of not respecting them, it is a matter of being able as a human to approach someone you may have a romantic interest in and asking them out on a date.
Not a text, not an email, a real in the flesh with your voice asking for a date.
That is the only personal way to ask for a date, text and email is not personal, it is generic.

That's a pet peeve of mine. When people act like they know everything. I can't stand a know it all. A lot of men are more successful in dating than me, but that doesn't mean I want their advice.
