I (28M) currently going through the arranged marriage process and wanted some outside perspective on a situation that feels a bit confusing.
A family reached out to us and showed a lot of interest initially. Both families met and everything seemed positive. After that, I got her number and we had a call. The conversation was decent and she mentioned she is generally reserved but also said she is in the mindset to settle down.
After that call, there was very little communication from her side. I tried to connect again but responses were delayed and the overall energy felt quite low. At one point she mentioned she was busy and out of station, but there were some inconsistencies in what I was told later.
There was almost no initiative from her side to continue the conversation or set up another call. It felt like I was the one trying to keep things moving while she was just responding.
Then suddenly after a couple of days, she messaged saying she is ready to connect. She also suggested that we meet in person.
This shift felt a bit sudden to me. It almost feels like something changed in the background and now things are being pushed forward. Because of the earlier lack of communication, whatever initial interest I had has mostly faded.
I am still planning to meet her in person, but I am not sure how to read this situation.
Am I overthinking the lack of effort at this stage?
Is it normal to see this kind of low engagement early on?
