  • Could be .. but it also could be someone who is shy to say "yes" too.  No reply can be interpreted different ways depending upon whoever isn't replying.

    Whoever isn't replying, and/or whatever context the missing reply concerns. Right so. Thank you for your reply. :-)

    No reply is what ever your imagination makes it to be.

    Just because you ask does not mean someone has to answer.

    Do we always have to ask first to be expecting a reply?! Btw, thanks for your reply. :-)

    Questions can be heard. Questions can be taken wrongly. Replies can deliberately be given misleading. Questions can be ignored. There are a lot of scenarios. Thank you replying. :-)

  • Not necessarily.

    No reply means I have no idea what's going on in the other person's world -

    technical glitches, health, work, family, friends or other commitments are all possible reasons why someone might not answer, or even, unfortunately, just forgetting.

    A "hello" or a friendly question might help.
