Don’t ghost people man, I didn’t grow up in the era when that was common but it just sounds shitty
As for the date being weird, good riddance. Honestly, she sounds kind of fake

The alternative to ghosting is to do what she did and say “I just didn’t feel a connection, sorry”
Trust me when I say this, I am by far an outlier in how people will process and accept that statement. My response of “no worries, u as well!” is what everyone hopes for but few will get, trust me. A lot, and I mean a lot, of people will get defensive when rejected. They will either ask for what they did wrong as ammunition to argue it, or say something negative back like “well I didn’t like you either, you’re ugly” or something to salvage wounded pride
It’s a nice thing to do but it does not tend to play out nice. I’m a generally non-confrontational person so I would prefer to just avoid it
What I don’t do is flippantly ghost people. If someone tries a joke online with me that doesn’t land, that won’t be a dealbreaker for me. I’ll continue to give them a chance and meet just about everyone I start a conversation with. So I am far less judgemental than most
