What's The Essence Of Playing Hard To Get? by Nobody: 1:04pm On Dec 04, 2016 |
One of the more ridiculous pieces of advice I hear spun out to women with frightening regularity is " Play hard to get ." Where does this stuff come from? The whole playing hard to get thing is archaic, 19th century nonsense. Most reasonable guys have no interest or tolerance for the "hard to get" game. The men love the chase myth has been propagated for years with very little (if any) rebuttal. It's just one of those things that has always been openly declared and just as openly unchallenged, so the myth has become accepted fact. The fact that the woman doesn't need us makes her a challenge . But what guys don't love, is the chase. When you think about the concept of the chase with a healthy dose of logic, it's crystal clear why that type of gamesmanship makes little sense. Why begin something new and potentially great by pretending to be uninterested initially? When you pretend to be less interested than you really are, does this not set the tone for the rampant 'game-playing' aspect of dating most of us want eliminated? Additionally, a guy may decide that he's wasting his time because he can't figure out where he stands. So while you and your girlfriends are busy trying to "make him work for it" because you don't want to seem too eager or too interested, he's moved on because he met someone who was interested and wasn't afraid to be open about it. I'm not saying that women should throw their dignity on the craps table. I'm not saying stuff your underwear into a guy's shirt pocket with a hotel key attached to it. No one's advocating that you get all possessive and Fatal Attraction-esque; we're just saying to keep it real. Scraped together : KissChrix Credit : Yourtango 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Just women? ![]() Really? You do realize that men do all the things women do, right? It depends what you mean by hard to get. If a woman/man is not interested and makes this clear, then she/he is not playing hard to get and she/he has the right to be left alone and not pursued or harassed in any way. If that person is interested but is too immature to say so, then you ought to question why you're so interested in them in the first place. 11 Likes 1 Share |

You play hard to get, i ignore your silly ass... No time to waste on babe. I've got many others waiting in line. If you really think playing hard to get might make you look like a quality girlfriend material, then your IQ is really outdated ![]() 19 Likes 2 Shares |

It's a concept I don't understand either, as a woman either you like the guy or you don't and the sooner you let him know the less absorbing it is for both of you. This endless merry go around is an alien concept to me. This is why some women are single seriously a guy has a full time job already pursing you should not be a job in itself and please don't give me any bs about being easy and all that playing hard to get does not make you morally superior it makes you a very indecisive and potentially quite irritating. 13 Likes 1 Share |
