    You do not say if you used the pre-mixed thin-set mortar mix, if you mixed it yourself nor how you applied it.
      I can only give you an educated guess as to why it taking so long to dry.
      Did you hold the tile trowel at a 45 degree angle? If not, you may have put the thin set down too thick.
      If you mixed the thin set yourself, you may have mixed it too thick or too thin.
        If you are in a cold climate and the room is cold, it may take longer to dry.
    Wouldn't grout it until it dries though.
