Hi Hmmjack-
I would just back off and let her make the decision to respond. I certainly don't think you should try to push or force her to respond by continuing to contact her. Just leave the door open for the opportunity to connect at some point.
It is true that a gentleman should pursue a woman that he has expressed interest in but he certainly can't expect her to reciprocate if she is not ready nor willing to act on his advances.
For the record and in most cases, a woman chooses the guy, the guy doesn't choose the woman. You have texted her already...let her CHOOSE to respond when she is ready.
Be patient and take your expectations down a notch!
