One thing that jumps out is you're putting in 166% of the effort. Coming up with funny shit to say, being nice to her.

She's responding with single word replies, stroking her own ego, and getting you to qualify to her "high expectations".

Not a bad try, but ideally you want those two roles completely reversed dude. Your funnies need to be a lot shorter. A lot more careless, a lot less nice. Give no opportunities for her to stroke her ego at your expense, do the opposite by telling her "lame" or "you always like that?", or "ohhh... your parents drop you when you were little?".

You can accomplish this with ease, it's not a question of improving and polishing your skill, it's a question of deliberately dialing down the amount of mental effort you're investing into any girl. Dramatically.

Is this a serious post? Is it true if you don't use it, you lose it?

There's a lot here I'll just give a few points. You're playing the joker to much. You made me laugh but ease off on that a bit. You don't have to make her laugh with every text. Get her talking more it's very one sided really. For me you killed it with the incompatible line just put a downer on the whole thing. You still on POF with her at this point ? Never put things like 'lol' or smiley faces or any of that shit. I'm not even Gunna comment on the last line, I don't know what you was thinking.

You kinda screwed yourself by making the sexualness a joke right at the beginning, she went defensive, you'd already lost. Go strange sex pest rather than jokey rapist. If it's sexual aire on the side of seriousness. After all if that's what you want why would you joke?

I think the biggest pointer would be think ahead. Like with the black line, what possibly could she put to that to carry on a conversation? Before I send something think what she's likely to reply then what my response will be.

. Have you seen the tinder forums? They are brilliant for POF / tinder. Google bodybuilding tinder thread and it's the first one I think. I'd link ya but I'm on my phone.

Sorry dude, but this is straight up terrible. This girl is flat out rejecting you over and over again. She is getting a rejection high off of you, which is one of the best validation highs a girl can get.

You lost from the get-go and continued to lose even harder with each reply.

Just talking to her on pof. I don't really give a shit whether we meet up or not. I'm just kind of messing with her.

I know a guy who says the exact same shit when chatting with chicks on dating sites. He does it because they reject him from the start, so he says this to make himself feel better. I always ask him if he'll ever take it seriously, because it seems like he's just "messing" with every chick he chats with.

I see you're trying to work on it, which is good and I'm sure you're doing much better than you used to, but online dating fucking sucks. Chicks can automatically disqualify you right off the bat because they're getting fuck tons of attention from all sorts of guys on the site.

"Oh my god I am LOLLING my tits off right now."

Don't ever say something like this to a chick again. It only serves to pump up her ego. You don't want to do that.

Next time a chick starts to treat you this way, end the conversation without a word. She won't give a shit. Neither should you.

Don't do this. Text for logistics only.
