I think people sometimes mistake someone with a slower dating pace as playing hard to get. I say everyone should follow their comfort zone.

When I was younger I was accused of being or playing hard to get but I wasn't really. If I didn't feel something for the other person, some degree of attraction for them then I would just be going through the motion and that would not be fair for them or me. That was then! Now if I feel that small bit of attraction I will probably become a pest and never leave them alone.

Men take note ....If you are dangling a carrot and have no intention of ever letting them taste the carrot ., that is playing hard to get ... lmao
If someone is just an option .. and you string them along ...flirting and teasing just enough to keep their interest , then pulling away or disappearing ... That is playing hard to get . Acting disinterested when you are in fact interested ....either as a way to slow progression of a connection ., or to test their interest in you ., is playing hard to get . Delaying gratification when there is a strong mutual romantic connection ..but continuing to tease , could be seen as playing hard to get ...Or could just be a form of foreplay/denial play the term “playing hard to get “ is a little ironic . Especially if the outcome of any playing is frustration rather than satisfaction . Depending on the “intention”. Playing hard to get could include elements of manipulation , attention seeking , teasing , uncertainty .or could simply be a “selective dating strategy”. |

On another forum, this subject was brought up. A few women were waiting for more messages from guys, they'd never respond to just the first one. I posted the question to them, what happens if it's just one and done? In their view, I wasn't trying hard enough. My opinion, they weren't the effort. That is plain weird... |

B...bu...but,
I'm usually willing to let a woman taste my carrot on the first date. |

Well that's a comment I have had to live up with too! But I really don't know how I'm responsible for it!
Maybe I'm slow at picking up the hints LOL |

What exactly is playing hard to get in your opinion people? When you really want a Man, but act like you don't by ignoring him often. Men do that too, play hard to get! |
