Haven't gotten anywhere with her yet but have a date with her on Sunday. We were texting earlier and she told me that Im to funny. I reply saying "ya I know lol". She replies with "wow ur full of yourself lol" is that bad? Or does it show I high value myself? What should I reply back with?

you established cocky, so i'd say something funny to respond...maybe like "great, so i'll have my people call your people where we're going to meet up on Sunday" or something like that. _________________ Become your own man, stop waiting for the sky to shit out gold.

Cocky and funny would be my choice on this. You can say something along the lines of: "Please, try to control yourself." or "It's a gift." or even "Thank you."
Depending on the girl, if she's fulll of herself as well, you can respond with: "I know. You're a good teacher."

It could be a congruence test where she teases you a bit and sees if you're internally strong enough to handle a bit of ego bashing but she might also be telling the truth. Self confidence is good but a rampant ego is bad and likely to turn her off. It may also be a response to excessive qualification which (in my experience) is almost always bad. She may also have misinterpreted you. Of course, this isn't exhaustive and I can't tell which (if any) of these applies to you. Keep it light, keep it playful, keep it fun: you're flirting. I suspect you did the right thing here by showing that you didn't care. The incorrect response would be to get upset about it.

Calling someone full of himself is obviously a negative characterization, there's no question in my mind about that. Problem is: you played a part in inviting it. When someone gives you a compliment you don't say 'I know LOLOMGWTFBBQ' like a 15 year old girl, you say 'Thank you' and return one if you can think of something. Another part of the problem: too much texting. You didn't have anything to say, but you thought a reply was required so you just blurted out something dumb that then came back and hit you in the face like a boomerang. So my advice is to do what you should have done earlier, albeit now for a different reason: don't react. Earlier, you should have done it because 'You're funny' in a text doesn't require a reply. Now, you should do it because she insulted you and you don't want to reward that with attention. Let her invest some energy in you for a change. _________________ One of the most useful things you will ever learn about body language.

However, when you hear such a comment it means she is attracted to you and is reaching her threshold before you start appearing arrogant to her. This where you switch gears and let her talk about herself and qualify to you. Once, you are done with that you go into comfort stage and display a vulnerability card which will be a surprise to her. Next thing you know, she can't read you for shit and will find you intriguing. Calibrate!
