Day 20: Still no response. Begin to convince yourself that they hate you.
Day 25: Still no response. Convince yourself that you have not only been forgotten, but they do hate you, and clearly any time you contact them it is annoying, but find yourself still wanting to rp.
Day 27: Consider/try to start a new RP.
*Option 1) Success! Rping begins!
*Option 2) Restart Day One.

*Option 1) Succeed, and unfollow.
*Option 2) Fail, horribly, and continue to be envious of everyone they post with.
Month 5: Still no response. Hold out vague hope that someday, they might remember you exist.
