I think Chantal telling the guy she feels she's made her intentions clear in regards to her feelings for him, and that it's up to him to continue communicating if he feels the same way is fine - if it's done at the start and not days into her being ghosted. At that point, it's all about reading the room and she obviously can't or refuses to because she's holding onto some level of hope that he'll fall for her.
Look, no one likes being ghosted but the response is not to keep messaging. They're not going to realize, after not responding to your tenth straight desperate text, that oh shit maybe I like this person after all.
If you're getting vague responses, send out the intentions text and end it there. But don't send that text after being completely ghosted for multiple days.
