How many text messages b4 you stop?

Was having a good time hanging out with this girl. we talked via texts the next day (Tues), making plans to see each other again, to which she said yeah shed like to hang out on Thursday. Then she got a court order to do community service on that day, so I sent a text saying ok, lets do friday then.
Havent heard back from her since. Ive sent two texts out just saying hi or whatever since, but its been like over 24 hours. I dont want to seem desperate by continuing to send out shit like that without reciprocation, even though I really like this girl. Just think its totally strange for her to just shut off, especially considering how well things seemed to be going.
What the hell am I still supposed to try and hang out with her tomorrow? I cant just drive up to see her unless there is some kind of communication.

Don't keep texting her. She obviously got the message and isn't saying something back for some reason. Just wait it out, and if she doesn't text back.
then fuck it. It is what it is.
But if she does text back.......

I'd try one more in a few days, and then stop.
Either she's sending a hint, or she doesn't have access to her phone. Either way, you don't want to spam her out. Even if it's the latter, when she comes back to 40 text messages, she's probably going to be put off.

this. its not creepy, it lets her know you remember the plans the two of you made, and shows you're interested... i think you'll know overkill before you reach it... maybe she's flaky?

no more texting until you hear from her. if she lost her phone or something, the last thing u want is for her to find it, and have a bunch of texts from some dood she just met.

I wouldn't text her back until she does. Even then I'd tell her something came up and I can't do friday. But that's just me.

Dude, just call her parents house until they'll give you her address and just stop over sometime, problem solved 
Kidding, of course, be chill, she'll get back to ya, if not, fuck her
just out of curiosity, what is she on community service for? Drugs, fighting?

You sent 3 texts in 24 hours, none of which were replied to?
On to the next one.
Me personally I USUALLY only contact a girl 2-3 times a week MAX. There just isn't that much to say. Best bet is to call/text them to get up. If not that, we can get up later. No reason to really be on the phone talking for too long.

Playing that "i don't really care" card works well. If she doesn't respond again just don't text or call and the date will pass. Then later you'll end up talking again about the next day you guys can hangout. act like it was no big. Then you have better communication the second time and meet up and have a good time! all without possibly looking really interested (big nono if she likes games)

3 texts is my limit. If i send 3 texts with no replies, i'm done with her until she texts me back.
this happened a while back with a girl. we had plans to go hang out on a sunday night. i sent 2 texts on thursday, then one on friday. i didnt hear back from her until tuesday of the next week. she gave a bullshit excuse and asked if we could hang out that night. i said no, that i was taking a date to a comedy club. she just responded with a ' '. after that, she was on my sack for the next two months.
take from this story what you will.

Here is a good rule. For every three texts you send. only send 2 back.
AT MOST 1:1 text

You text twice. In 2 different times. If you get no response. CAll it quits. I wont give a girl any extra thoughts of oh she could have me. If she doesnt respond to me, i never talk to her again.

I called today; went to her her voicemail. I asked if she was still on for tomorrow and to get back to me and let me know. No response. I guess that's it.
Kinda lame, considering I helped this girl by driving 60mi out to pick her up when she got abandoned by someone she knew, then she does relatively the same bullshit to me. I don't get it, but whatever. For the guy who asked, she was doing 19 hours community service for an old ticket that resulted in a suspended license. She had to pull 19 hours in two days, and be back in court friday.
Weird thing is shes like a really religious and timid girl, this was the last way I expected someone of this mentality to act. She seemed like the kind who really cared for the interest of others..

hahah then id feel like an asshole. something tells me thats not the case though. If she had really lost her phone days ago, it would be dead by now. that it rang means she probably saw me calling and didnt pick up.
id at least have the decency to say its not happening, or that im just not feeling it. I dunno. Whatever, many more in the sea I guess.
