That doesn't necessarily mean they're not serious or aren't capable of being serious. What about girls who aren't comfortable meeting someone immediately because they don't know them well enough to feel whether they can trust meeting them in person yet. Someone suggesting we meet within the first conversation will scare me away and I'll only reply to be polite. I agree that dating does require being in the same room eventually. But why does it have to be immediately? I would never be interested in meeting someone immediately, no matter how attracted I was to them. And I really don't think I'm the only one like that.
And not every girl gets a million messages...I've gotten like 3 total on the new account (and that was with a really good picture). They may be busy, not interested, or intimidated. If you've already sent more than one message, I think you should wait. If she responds, then go from there.
