So I tried LinkedIn game...decipher this

Ok, so I thought I try and play some old work contacts on LinkedIn. I've never tried to do this before...that's why I'm in the Newbie forum.
I send a quick message...Hi, wondering if we could get together, don't want to die wondering etc...shit like that
And I get this reply:
I’m flattered...my world is very crazy atm and I can’t think too straight, happy to catch up but would prefer with clear head.
WTF does that mean?

Seems like a polite way to say "no".
Without further context, this looks like a set up to keep putting you off until you stop asking to go out with her.
"Oh I'm sorry Cane Toad, my life is still so busy..."
"Would love to, but I've got a full schedule next week and 20 projects to complete before then..."
"I can't tomorrow, work things, but maybe next month?"
Etc, etc...
The real question though, is whether you should be trying to get laid through LinkedIn?
It's a very connected and open platform. Combine that with the fact most industries are smaller than they look from the outside and you could be setting yourself up for some shit further down the line.

Just ask when she will have more time and write again then. If she says no again then move on.

I would say your opener is too desperate. "don't want to die wondering . . . "
Try inviting her for a drink instead. No one wants the sort of pressure you are doling out.

It means "Thanks for the unsolicited and unremarkable offer of cock. I'll put it in the queue along with the rest and in the event yours makes it to the front of the line I'll be sure let you know"
Cheers mate, that made me laugh...but fuck it, at least I'm out there chasing the poon...

What sort of insane drought are you in that you have to resort to LinkedIn for pussy? That can only go wrong.

Ok, I'm hearing the advice...maybe not such a good idea to play on LinkedIn

In before somebody screenshots OP and pastes it into a mass message to her industry contacts. #metoo
Going after something from work is a bad idea and people do it anyway. However, if she's taken no initiative to show interest in a social setting, it's absolutely a bad idea. All the downside with limited upside. Cold restarts, especially emotional ones, on LinkedIn seems like a reputational catastrophe in the making.

LinkedIn game will burst the female fantasy that all opportunity and success in her career comes because of her intelligence and hard work. The reality that she's never had to fight for her career like a man, nor be responsible for key decisions when things go south, like a man, is incomprehensible.

Hmm I've had friends successfully meet and bang girls off LinkedIn, most of them were inadvertent. I've had some girls message me for social meets but I never really bothered to use it as a means for pussy as other means were providing me with decent results already.

Don't use LinkedIn for game. It's like shitting where you eat, but on the internet where everyone can see it.
