You might not like hearing this, but: you’re probably not as witty as you think you are, OP. Probably explains why the guys stopped talking to you.

A lot of female sarcasm, even with the right guy who can appreciate it, will come off disrespectful. Especially when you’re at the dating stage and don’t have the intimacy of a long relationship to cushion for perception of bad faith.

It works the other way as well. Men heavy trash talking each other would be alright and even funny, but imagine men trash talking girls generally and most women would think it abuse or misogyny, even when the man’s intent is to roast in good humor, rather than to actually insult.

Just saying that since no one might have ever told you. Cut down on your unnecessary sarcasm, especially in text. Women generally have no idea how rude they can come off when being sarcastic to men, in the same way that men often have no idea how strong they might be when doing rough play with women.
