I was randomly on facebook and I've always had my sights set out for this girl since the start of pickup. Like she was one of the girls who I wanted to pickup when I first started looking into it.
So the story goes, I was on facebook and I saw her online so I'm like fuck it lets do it without really thinking about it, anyway this is how it went down.

Me: what if I told you that you had something perfect that others dont have?
her: What do you mean?
Me: well there are 3 things that make a person special
her: And whats that
Me: a good energy, a great personality and an outlook
her: True I suppose
Me: well I'd just though of telling you that before I had to go
her: Where are you going
Me: aha I have homework to do
unless you really really really want to talk to me haha
her: Same . Its no good.
Haha we can talk later
Me: alright if you insist
her: Haha I have stuff to do now anyways
Haha bye bye to

You exchanged a dozen lines only... You have a long way to go before you stick your penis in her vagina. Be real.

Before she can respect you, you need to respect yourself.

how, exactly, have you 'got this one'?

i gave up on 'cocky/funny' a long, long time ago. girls (or anyone with a semblance of intelligence) see right through that shit. i now just rely on my own natural, dark humour.

Really? I find cockiness especially when being 1on1 really helps. Like if a girl is doing:

Her: Oh im so attractive blahblahblah, don't I look hot in your hat. <went out clubbing wearing a santas hat, random girl pulled it off my head.
Me: tsktsk, I'm definitely a hotter santa then you. <cockiness/neg her
Her: Oh come oooooooooooon <standard attempt to get validation.
Me: hmmm I might let you be my little elf. We'll see.

Anyway OP, not gonna lie man...that was pretty terrible:
You basically say she's perfect without her giving you anything. Openers should be teasy/neggy/fun/interesting, avoid questions. Also don't say this shit till after she's gotten on your cock and done a good job at it. e.g

*sex finishes, she wants to cuddle*
Me *whisper in ear*: You are fucking stunning, you have been so hot tonight.

or for a girlfriend that you actually like and want to keep her around for a long time

*sex finishes, she wants to cuddle*
Me *whisper in ear*: I'm so glad I found you. <AFC but your allowed to do this with a girlfriend and every girlfriend I've said it to has instantly rolled over and started round 2. One of my top girlfriends instantly went to the bathroom and put a load of lingerie on.
She isn't investing at all, she's just replying.
lil bit of investment. Good tip: I rarely am descriptive with girls about what I'm doing, they love knowing peoples business. Be vague and she will wonder. A simple basic one:

Her: Where are you going.
Me: Off to do something fun, you should try it :O
Don't do this, ever. Neediness without her even giving you a reason to be needy.
She ignores your neediness mainly because...well your conversation is quite boring. You aren't giving her a reason to WANT to talk to you.
This is okay, just sounds like shes being nice tbh. Also sounds like the standard "yeah im probably not gonna start a conversation with you again"
Making yourself available too easily again. Heres an example I used with my ex:

Her: We should definitely meet up for drinks soon.
Me: We'll see <be cheeky.
Her: When are you free?
Me: Not sure, busy boi. I'll let you know and you WILL be free :O
Her: You're such an asshole!
Me: You love it.
Her: Still cheeky as well
This just screams "I didn't enjoy this, im gonna go do boring homework now"

I know it seems like I'm ripping you apart about this but take this advice and use it constructively. Personally I think you should use this girl as a "training mule" just rinse and repeat, open again, be cheeky. Find out what works then use it on other girls or even this girl. Girls are NEVER a "I'm never gonna be into you" as they are much more flippant then us men.

Anyway bro, have fun.

cocky/funny is good if it comes natural. if it doesn't, you just come across sounding like the OP.

Ah very true, I am quite naturally cocky. I get the standard "You are such a cocky wanker" from girls a fair bit which is obviously a shit test. I continue with the cockiness aka "Jesus stop thinking about wanking you dirty girl" but yeah Daffy is right. If you aren't naturally cocky then don't attempt to be.

ALSO OP heres another example I just thought of and love:

Me: well there are 3 things that make a person special
her: And whats that
Me: a good energy, a great personality and an outlook
her: True I suppose
Me: So I'm extremely special, time to find out if you are.

thing is, i too am naturally cocky/funny - and then i started consciously doing it with almost every interaction (after some intense David DeAngelo reading) and suddenly i was screwing up all over the place.

Just be yourself...as long as yourself is the best person you can be.

I can also be the same. I spent six months shagging a HB9 who was loud as fuck and would constantly validate my penis size and such. My housemates told my mates who thought up a chant for me then would chant it whenever we went out so yeah I got even cockier to the point I was being cocky with girls I consider friends.

Some of them love it but some of them are like "ewwww you're so creepy sometimes!"

To be honest tho, I have more fun being cocky.

That convo was cringe worthy

haha fuck! you see I havent been in the game for a while, its cool though, just another learning experience. I seriously thought she was giving me a good sign when she said "where are you going ". Oh well, better luck next time

It is a good sign but you need to reply in a more vague/mysterious way.

Her: Where are you going.
You: Who knows cya. <if she likes you she'll be wondering for ages.
