A lot of men can be dumbasses when it comes to getting the female hint. But as I was reading the OP, my first thought was that he should have said, well let's go out.
I'm 46, and it took me a long time to figure that out, I'm pretty sure that the OP is a young kid and isn't fluent yet in female.

We talked a bit more and that's that
today she texted me saying "I told you she canceled so you would take me out"
In my head I'm thiniking wtf? Why didn't you just say "hey my friend canceled want to joine me?"
Is this how females work?
It's a Wonderful Life
Man on Porch: Why don't you kiss her instead of talking her to death?
George Bailey: You want me to kiss her, huh?

It's not a freaking game! It's communication. Almost all species of animals have their mating dances and courtship rituals, these are forms of communication. Learn the primate known and Homo sapiens sapiens rituals and you'll be fine.

Ok being female, I know what she's thinking.
I would be the same.
You are the male, by nature the aggressor. You are (I guess?) on a Dating Site, ostensibly to date a female.
I don't blame her being slightly offput by your failure to take advantage of a God given opportunity. It shows you are either not actually there for dating, thereby being shady, or you may well be married.
Basically if there's anyone at fault in this hilarious postmodern dating lesson, its YOU.
I agree with the others, she gave you an opening and hoped you'd invite her out. Some women throw out hints, some are very direct, and some are somewhere in the middle so there is not one way to communicate that's set in stone. You have to learn how people communicate and go with it. I've learned that my DH is like Sheldon on Big Bang Theory, so if I want something I just have to throw it out there because he just doesn't get hints.
