Don't text back immediately is folk scarcity. In practice: reply when you can, like a person with a body. A timed five-minute delay as a tactic is tryhard. Instant replies all evening while you do nothing else is the leak.[1][2]
Method

- Answer logistics fast. Answer boredom slow.
- In person beats a perfect latency strategy.
Failure mode
A spreadsheet of reply times. She isn't timing you that hard. You are.
