Jesus christ you fucking autists... Here, lemme tell you how the "be an asshole" thing works, it has more stages then just being a fucking jerk:
1. Act like an asshole, let her fight for the validation (if she won't, just leave it, she ain't interested). Make her feel like she's the one being honored by your occassional reply. If you know her in real act distant but drop comments every now and then, small compliments, negging if you will (although I hate that word), make sure these are merely enough to show you are not 100% uninterested, that she has a shot with you, but she's gotta work for it.
2. As of out of nowhere ask her to meet up, make an excuse for it if need be (like you were heading downtown anyway and she can join)
3. Show genuine interest on that first date but without looking thirsty or desperate. Just be friendly. This will confuse the hell out of her and her instincts will kick in, she will think she needs to take this opportunity as based on your previous behaviour it is unlikely, hence valuable.
4. Afterwards you need to pull back a little bit, make her struggle a bit, but not too much, reel her in, decide how strong you pull back based on how thirsty she is.
5. When the tension is built up and she goes full banana to get you mercifully let her have you.
6. From now on you only have to do one thing: slowly (really slowly, this stage can take months or even years) start dripping honey, act more and more mature, thoughtful, caring, cute even. This is the stage when you actually make her fall in love with you, before it was just instincts and here you play with her emotions.
7. Continue honey-dripping until she will literally do anything for you. Congratulations, you earned yourself one dedicated, loving and most likely loyal gf.
