I think you pua friends probs fucked it for u shouting shit. Although if you had gone in stronger earlier you might have been more successful, im guilty of the same sitting about chatting and being comfortable with not moving the interaction forward when I know I damn well should.
POF sucks been on a few dates through it and found it was way 2 much work and all the girls I met were all weirdo stalker psychos, its all about looks and if your not super good looking the hotties rarely show any interest. I personally believe most hotties just sign up so 100s of chumps can message them and they can get an ego boost out of it.
Personally I would bother with the boot camp save the 2 grand buddy theres better things you could put that toards.
