First time using TRP knowledge, I did what I wanted but did I play it right?

"Right" is subjective. Depends what you wanted and what the long term result is.

More important, did you hand it "better" than you would have before?

And I think so.

"You're wasting my time" is very aggressive in terms of game, and is right on the edge of "asshole game." Now, some girls go for jerks (we all know that) but I, personally just can't sustain asshole game past a few hours, so my own approach to this encounter would have been more subtle.

Dropping that bon mot and then walking away pissed her off and she blew up your phone and played the "I want to be friends" card. I would rather have spun up her hamster, wondering what went wrong and trying to figure me out.

However - you shouldn't have let her suck you into explaining yourself. But you've already seen this as an error, so I think you're still on point.

So - no, no flat out violations of any "red pill rules" (which are only guidelines) that I can see. Just a difference in style.

However, there's a bigger picture here: "Part of me thinks this happened because I got to know her when I was still acting quite beta, texting her nearly every day and asking her how things are going... "

Well, yeah. A woman decides that she is attracted to you in the first 90 seconds that she knows you. If she's put you in the "potential friend" category, it's almost impossible to get out of it. That's true like gravity is true: some people have escaped it and made it to the moon. But not very many.

My advice is to soft-next. Just go zero contact with this one for like, a YEAR. Continue to work on yourself and raise your SMV. Game other women. Close other women. Then, in a year, if you're still interested, re-engage and see if you can raise her interest.

LJBFs : response, "I have enough friends".

When she brings up last boyfriend, your response is, "I'm not your last boyfriend"

Make sure you have a subtle grin or smile. Walk away and engage others.

Now, I would soft next at a minimum. Wait the time you are gone then see where things stand. But sounds like she's wanting an orbiter and emotional tampon, then just hard next.
