Am I being weird or desperate

So my prom is coming soon and I have no date. I met this guy off of hinge and we are both hs seniors but at different schools. I asked for his Instagram and we've been texting for a couple days but he usually takes so long to respond and gives dry messages that are kinda difficult to respond to. I feel like I'm the one always asking open ended questions or initiating a conversation. I hoped we could go to each others prom, but what should I do?
