Playing hard To Get Is It Necessary? by Matthewbriggs(m): 9:54pm On Sep 09, 2013
I don't think it is necessary to play hard to get especially in this 21st Century. When Men not Boys are getting scarce.

I understand the desire not to look cheap and all. But I believe if you see what you want and you like him and that person likes you why running in circles.

Personally this attitude turns me off very quickly. It tells me you still have some growing up to do, have no clear understanding of what you really want, and don't deserve my attention. This attitude is prevalent with not all but majority of women in their early 20's I think this maybe because of their lack in experience and the overwhelming attention they get from several guys.

I am not against this attitude but just be weary of the kind of guys you use it on. To some guys it might be a turn on, it's a sign that they need to try harder.

To guys like me who know what they really want, think long term and careless about the container that houses your soul. To guys like me who by default are spoilt with so many options but decide to focus our energy on you, this attitude turns us off. We just take it that you're not interested and off we go and once we are gone, we are gone. Our time is of essence.

To the ladies why do you play hard to get?
To the Guys are you the type that never gives up, or give up easily?

Asking a girl out is like a game to them, this is something I've discover long ago.
Just be yourself cuz girls like dis. Once they see u r confident enough to approach them, then they play on you little to knw your stand.

So don't get fvvking pissed off....

Sometimes, we need to process your advances and weigh our options. I bet you didn't ask us out the moment you liked us. You thought of it and the best approach. "Should i talk to her? What if she doesn't like me? Is she really a good girl? etc." And this is not for all those "hit and run" guys.

So please, let us take our time. You know how emotional we can be. We love to hold on to ours.

However, playing hard to get for a long time, posting the guy here and there, is childish. If you don't like him, let him go. If you do, grab him! Stop stalling cheesy

That's the twist, I hate games. I lay my cards straight on the table after carrying out my due diligence of wooing her, expecting a yes or No, not a maybe. Especially when I know she really digs me. I hate mixed signals. I dislike been kept in limbo.

Spot on OP.... Seems some ladies just love to savor the novelty and wallow in the euphoria that some Prince Charming fancies them. They love the 'feeling' and dont want it to end any sooner. But Abraham Lincoln's balls for those ladies that flash both Red and Green lights sha o. They piss a man off
Re: Playing hard To Get Is It Necessary? by Danhumprey: 10:44pm On Sep 09, 2013
I agree with Caracta. Though at times,such behaviour piss me off. Imagine having the courage to approach a gal,start a conversation with,espressing your heart to her and after going through all these only for the gal to tell you "I would think about it". What rubbish! For 6 to 12 months,that same gal is till thinking about it!

lolzz, I personally think its childish, if a guy asks u out and u like him, why pretend about it when u know sooner or later, u'll still agree. but sometimes girls play hard to get cos dey r tired of heartbreaks and wanna c how serious d guy is.

good girls dont play hard to get....

you get a straight response in weeks. positive or negative. emotional bargage makes a lady pile up admirers on queue so she can easily dump one for another and make all of them look cheap...

This ish only happens when men woo girls just out of pampers.

You want the real deal you approach a real woman, if you know you are not a boi then step up your game and be the man a real woman need.

Ain't no woman gat time for men who act like bois.

Peace.

A woman actually knows if she likes a guy or not from the first one hour he talks to her. She already knows if she will change her mind or not. The rest is just to disturb you and grease her silly ego which the guys are too happy to do.

She already knows her answer and the guy is just some pawn in some silly childish games girls (note not women) play in the name of making their minds

continue to play hard to get when ur mates are getting married every saturday... I met the lady of my dreams....told her my intentions cos i was not in for 5 to 10years dating thing...she agreed and soon, we will tie the knots. Playing hard to get is no longer in vogue. Besides the economy is not smiling on most youths today. If he shares your dreams and you can compliment his efforts...my dear just say a YES!!

You guys are jokers sincerely speaking.
I've discovered that those so called hard to get are empty headed beings who lose savour and taste after they finally oblige you but those simple to get are really the loaded ones.
There's a girl that held me on for 3 Whole Months just to get a number, today, i don't pick her calls again because i saw she wasn't worth the chase. I'm tired of her, she is now d one chasing. I try to annoy her and just get her off my back. I won't stop untill i simplyput her off.
Hard to get equals Trying to be who you are not.
