I've been improving myself immensely over the past few months, deciding to re-arrange my believes in PUA and slowly moving my way into the scene of seduction. The progress i've made includes mostly things such as approaching, escalation, being physical, being assertive and just never telling myself NO to any opportunity i get. I've been meeting a ton of people and often get good reactions from the start. The only part about all of this is that none of it has lead to anything meaningful/interesting. Why?

My conversation skills are absolutely garbage.

* My humour is not funny and i'm generally bad at it. I have a hard time crafting good responses at a whim.
* I have a hard time getting witty.
* I tend to stick with something for too long when i notice an emotional reaction (positive one).
* I have lived way too shallow to really have an entertaining conversation, i'm lacking pure experience.

I can go to a club really confident, meet a ton of girls due to the balls i put out on the dancefloor/opening up, but once the situation shifts towards something more personal like conversations, they instantly drop me because i'm probably the most boring person out there.

Sorry for the rant, it's very frustrating when it's been an issue i have been having for 25 years and completely cockblocking me from progression.

Anyone else who has been in the same exact situation and managed to work himself up? I really don't mind slow progress, but in this regard things never changed for me.

Will look into it, appreciated.

Learn how to tease a woman.

In your personal time when you're not out there fucking girls, explore and find activities to do that make you a more interesting human being.

There's no quick fix.

DJ Fuji's Conversation Mastery Drills

Conversation Mastery
•Do these exercises in order and don’t move to the next one until you have mastered the current one

•Be patient and can take as long as a year to master this

•Practice at least 5 hours a week

1.Word Association
•Part 1 – Pick any word and think of the next word you associate it with (ex. Cat – Fur)
•Part 2 – Come up with 5 or 6 associations on one word
•Do this for many words especially with words you might have trouble finding associations

2.Thread Cutting Monologue
•Start talking about the associations
•Pick 1 association and branch off, introducing new topics
•Should sound like you have ADD so don’t do this infield

3.Investment Value Cycle (IVC)
•Humor
•Interesting
•Relating
•Take the good, interesting associations and cut the bad ones
•Use humor, something interesting, or relate to talk about the association
•Will be difficult to do at first and can take time to perfect
•Asking the 4 common questions (Where you from? What are you guys up to? What are you celebrating? What do you do?) works for naturals so don’t be afraid to ask these questions in set
•Practice by asking yourself these questions, pick any answer (ex. What do you do? I’m a doctor), then respond to yourself using humor, something interesting, or relating
•Pick many answers and do this for every question

4.Steering Conversation
•Select a topic (word) for a start point and a completely unrelated random topic (word) for an end point
•Key is to start talking about the first topic and smoothly continue thread cutting until you get to the end point
•Do this with multiple topics until you can talk about anything
•Mastering this will give you control of every social interaction
•Will help you steer away from unpleasant topics that might come up

Read "The Naked Jape" by Jimmy Carr. It's interesting on its own, definitely readable, has a part on humour theory, and a decent amount of funny jokes. It was recommended in some manual, maybe Savoy's Magic Bullet, I think.
And start watching/going to stand-up comedy shows. You'll get a knack on how to be funny. Out of the blue you can start by Dave Chappelle's Killing Them Softly.
