sickpuppy Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Why do women act aloof at times and play hard to get yet once they think someone else is in the picture all of a sudden they start contact you or having other friends/co-workers asking you questions about your status? Is it simply for the challenge or seeing if they can still attract you yet they have no real interest in you?
rbrock2323 Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 I guess it depends on the woman and what her end goal is. Kind of like when you see something you want, but not sure if it's worth the effort to buy, bid, pursue, call, inquire, etc until you see someone else with the exact same thing enjoying it.
string of letters Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Well, if you really want to look at some people's explanation as to why women might do this, you could google 'mate choice copying'. I personally was not very impressed when I briefly looked at the study that is used to back up this theory, and I would probably be less impressed if I looked at it further. I would also add that, even if it is true, it doesn't necessarily explain the motives of the particular women you have seen do this. So despite pointing you in this direction, my disclaimer is 'entertainment purposes only'.

You think like normal women & most men. We aren't going to waste our time & energy on someone who has a phone full of numbers they can call for an insta-date. However most women do in fact want what other women have. And more often than not they don't even want the guy, just the feeling of his sole attention. It's f'd up really.
