Trialbyfire Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 From what I've seen, decidedly so...although for either to do this, is kind of silly, no?
Salicious Crumb Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Do men play hard-to-get the same way women do?? No. We either want to be with a woman or we don't
Pretty Fly Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 No. We either want to be with a woman or we don't I agree with this. We may get cautious if we aren't sure what your intentions are, which may come across as being hard to get.
oppath Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 If I'm interested in a woman, and SHE gives me a green light, she'll have no doubt I like her. If she comes on too strong it is a turn off, but the only way I'd play hard to get is if I'm not really interested, am juggling many other girls, or am not ready for a relationship (for emotional, professional, health reasons). Now, if I can't gauge a woman's interest in me, I'm much more remote.
Author Star Gazer Posted March 3, 2007 Author Posted March 3, 2007 If but the only way I'd play hard to get is ....am not ready for a relationship (for emotional, professional, health reasons). Now, if I can't gauge a woman's interest in me, I'm much more remote. THIS is what I'm trying to figure out - if he's playing hard to get until he IS ready...keeping me on edge until then. It's mind boggling.
Trialbyfire Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 THIS is what I'm trying to figure out - if he's playing hard to get until he IS ready...keeping me on edge until then. It's mind boggling. Star Gazer, perhaps you could expand on what he does that makes you feel uncertain.
alphamale Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Do men play hard-to-get the same way women do?? We most certainly do SG...but only the men who have something to offer can use this methodology.
Pyro Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Do men play hard-to-get the same way women do?? I don't know about that. In what way are you referring to?
Yamaha Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Men play hard to get if they are smart and understand women. It makes us all the more enticing.
Pyro Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Men play hard to get if they are smart and understand women. It makes us all the more enticing. A guy doesn't have to be hard to get to make themselves more enticing. He just has to make sure not to open his heart all at once to a woman.
alphamale Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Men play hard to get if they are smart and understand women. It makes us all the more enticing. tee hee ....basically the rule is the more people you have interested in you the easier it is to play hard to get.
Guest Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 If a guy is really into you, he calls and asks you out, and makes his intentions clear. You know he wants you. my best advice (besides reading the book He's Just Not That Into You), is to not call him. Don't even call to just say 'hey.' Let him do the asking. He'll come around and pursue full force if he's into you.
johan Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 THIS is what I'm trying to figure out - if he's playing hard to get until he IS ready...keeping me on edge until then. It's mind boggling. What do you mean? I didn't even realize you were interested in me.
luvtoto Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I don't play hard to get, but I don't put my entire personality out on the table all at once either. Some mystery is nice.
alphamale Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Some mystery is nice. I think "mystery" is one reason why LS keeps going
johan Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I think "mystery" is one reason why LS keeps going I'm with you there. I keep waiting and waiting for Tony and Paul to really open up to us and let us in. But then if they did, I'd probably lose interest. Human nature, you know.
luvtoto Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I'm with you there. I keep waiting and waiting for Tony and Paul to really open up to us and let us in. But then if they did, I'd probably lose interest. Human nature, you know. YES!!!! That is exactly my point..sort of. Except for the Tony and Paul statement. I mean, if a ya don't keep a sense of mystery about yourself in a relationship, then how do you expect someone else to stay interested? ---------------------------- (oh, lord...I just ate six hot wings and three big slices of pizza. urp! I gotta go get me a beer.)
johan Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 YES!!!! That is exactly my point..sort of. Except for the Tony and Paul statement. I mean, if a ya don't keep a sense of mystery about yourself in a relationship, then how do you expect someone else to stay interested? Because they actually love you. I mean that kind of mystery is only going to be kept up for so long. I actually like when the mystery is gone and you really know and like the person. That can be better than the chase.
alphamale Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I mean, if a ya don't keep a sense of mystery about yourself in a relationship, then how do you expect someone else to stay interested? exactly LUVTOTO....I think sometimes I take the "mystery" part a little too far, however.
Pyro Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I don't play hard to get, but I don't put my entire personality out on the table all at once either. Some mystery is nice. Thanks for translating my post Luv.
ruby_gloom Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I'm with you there. I keep waiting and waiting for Tony and Paul to really open up to us and let us in. But then if they did, I'd probably lose interest. Human nature, you know. Haha. You're a funny dude. Because they actually love you. I mean that kind of mystery is only going to be kept up for so long. I actually like when the mystery is gone and you really know and like the person. That can be better than the chase. I agree with this. Being mysterious for too long can lead the other person to feel that they don't really know you, which is turn can lead to disinterest of sorts, imo.
luvtoto Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 exactly LUVTOTO....I think sometimes I take the "mystery" part a little too far, however. Oooo...sounds dangerous.
