You're still doing ok by this point. She has apparently not interpreted your opener as a joke.

Here's where you're starting to crash and burn

This is an insult, not to be confused with a neg. Remember that you can't easily convey sarcasm when you're chatting/emailing/etc.. You were ok until you insulted her.
You could make a new opener that involves CLEARLY untrue statements, like:
| Quote: | | I'm a short, bald C.E.O. of a fortune 500 company who still lives with his parents. I spend my evenings watching The Wizard of OZ while listening to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon to see if they match up in any significant way. My hobbies include pinata stuffing and competitive window washing. If I sound like the man for you, you may get in touch with me via email, instant message or telegram. |
Also using the word "marry" in your profile may be dangerous, as some people expect to find their future husband/wife online. She very well may have thought you were serious.
Don't start negging/teasing until you have built some comfort, and certainly don't insult her or it's over. Even if she's moody, she's a woman so that's normal. |
