Maybe there IS a reason, maybe her cell was stolen or she's been busy or who knows. |
Don't go there, you'll drive yourself crazy with that kind of thinking
Wait till Friday, you don't know why she hasn't still replied, so wait till Friday. It has happened to me also that I forgot to reply to a message and it was because I thought I already had replied
I was in a kind of busy spell.

I think you're focusing too much on finding
best friends. I know it's important to you, but why not first focus just on meeting as many new female acquaintances as possible, without seeing them as potential best friends, be more relaxed about it. Those relations that do evolve into friendships somehow naturally do so.
Don't get discouraged
You did the first step, which is great!
And just because it may not work out with this person, doesn't mean it won't with others.
