Just set expectations about how long you believe it will take to get back to someone.

I once said “yes” less than 5 minutes after a girl was mentioned to me. The person setting it up thought it odd. I thought it was very odd that they thought it was odd (no, my last name is not Norton, or Kramden), and had to justify myself. My justification was simply to ask if the following were true. She a baalas middos? Does she have a personality a bit more engaging than a giraffe? Does she walk upright? She doesnt come from a family of axe murderers? All yes? Excellent, she sounds like a wonderful girl, why should I say no? That was 20 years ago when one did not hire the Pinkertons to investigate every shidduch, I can only imagine how odd it would be today. People should stop asking so many questions.
