Messages me first then ignores me?

So she messages me first asking a question I answer the question and ask the same thing back like you do, then she just ignores it. She been on Facebook replying to people comments so I know she has time to reply, she hasn't even 'seen' the message, she will have a constant notification saying I messaged her...

Why is she ignoring my reply???

I read her message as soon as she sent it but then waited an hour to reply as I was busy doing something.....

She probably messaged you because she was bored. Now her friends are online, she doesn't need to talk to you anymore.

She asked if I was going to do a run and sent me a link to a 10k and I said "probably, are you?". We both enjoy running its not like she asked a random question about how I was doing.

She got her answer. She didn't want a conversation.

No she normally responds, it the fact that she hasn't even 'read' the message so she will have a notification on Facebook saying she has a message. I'm tempted just to message her saying something like 'take that as a no then' just to see what she says.

Yea, say that... I'm sure the other two posts are girls themselves.
This might not be in your case, but I used to do this when I was talking to guys online. I think it was kind of a "chase me" tactic... Like, I wanted to push the guy into being clingy so I knew they liked me?

Wow I've just realised how much of a B**ch I was... GIRLS DO NOT DO THIS! Do not play with a guy like this!
Unsure why you care so much?

She's not responded, so go about your day. She might never respond.

Maybe she thinks that if she replies, it will lead to a longer conversation - which she probs doesn't want at the time?
And leaving the message as 'read' but not replying would be even ruder

I do that sometimes but I end up forgetting to ever reply ehh

I care because I like her....
Happens all the time buddy. Ignore it and move on.
Do you know each other? I ignore people I don't know online :confused:

She replied acting like she forgot... From what she is saying she feel like she doesn't want to talk, but I just can't stop myself from sending another message...

Her replies seem like they're trying to stop the conversation..

They probably are - as you were told is most likely the case.

Take the cue, end the conversation. Why are you trying to continue a conversation with someone who isn't interested? Go talk to someone who is.
True, some girls like the chase, but I would of thought she'd make it more clear that she wanted that.

Best case scenario for your feeling is too move on - good luck!
Sounds like she just wanted to ask a question tbh.
She got an answer from you and has no motivation to keep the convo going.
