Making contact
What can I do if I don’t hear back when I’ve sent a contact request to someone?
Everyone is different, so you shouldn’t make assumptions – or worry yourself – about why someone has not responded to your contact request. There could be all sorts of reasons for it. It could simply be that he or she has been very busy with life in general.
You certainly shouldn’t let it stop you from contacting other members you think could be interesting.
If you are not prepared to wait indefinitely for a response from a specific member, you can remove the person in question from your Contacts list.
Icebreaker and contact request mutually exclusive?
