Full Version: girls playing hard to get
soompi forums > soompi interests > love & relationships

k i dunno if this has been posted already...but...

so the question is: if you believe/realize that a girl is playing hard to get, do you

1. counter it and play hard to get yourself, or
2. play along and prove to her that you want her

im just wondering this because, if you play hard to get yourself the girl might think you arent really interested and the relationship ends, but if on the other hand you prove yourself to her (ie call her often (not like annoyingly often, maybe once a day or something i dunno), and ask her out and reschedule when she says shes "busy"...) she might think you're desperate...


any thoughts?

yep purely for more attention.
girls believe that will make them seem less available and gets you to appreciate them more.
the correct way to respond is to slap them around. yup, show them who's boss.
girls really like that. though they might not admit to liking it..

If you go w/ option 2 --> it could be she really isn't interested then u lost your face and everything else... simply said, you got pwned.
And she must really like you a lot if you want to play w/ option 1

I thought there was a similar topic b4 somewhere, you might wanna search it up

You shouldn't bother with girls who play hard to get anyways. It's annoying and childish.
papasmurf
i usually tell them not to play hard to get when they're not even pretty enough to play hard to get

I must agree.
Because IMO when someone plays hard to get, the guys will usually do the same thing, and that's not a really good idea.

Girls who play hard to get are effin stupid. I hate how a lot of girls walk around thinking they're some princess from the looney bin and demand that guys kiss their asses. Girls playing all these senseless mind games just end up with no boyfriend because guys don't like putting up with all that bull.

ugh, playing hard to get is just immature. i wouldn't bother with girls that are still into doing that

Anyone who plays hard to get is stupid. They are wasting their time and the other person's time.

Yea I agree playing hard-to-get is immature.

I used to come of as one who played hard-to-get...but it was only because I was very very boy shy. tongue.gif
I've since gotten over my boy-shyness.

if someone needs to resort to game-playing in order to get someone else, then they're obviously not ready for a relationship.

grow up!

i don't see why people need to play games like this. if you like someone, just show it(subtly xD)!

maybe . .. just for the h.ell of it LOL *_____*'

They just want attention.
If they're playing hard to get, leave them.

I dont have time for games.
doctorlee
Don't give them the attention that they want.
It's not worth your time.

haha...so true.
you just gotta be upfront with them.
girls just want to feel like they're wanted.
Harbl
If they wanna play, give them a game I say, if not just for having something to do for a few weeks.
SarangHeyo <3
ahh well. do you actually know if theyre playing hard to get? or plain not attracted?
cuz if they are, if you play hard to get back, you might end up loosing that chance cuz shes gonna think YOURE not interested. as a girl myself, i like the second option.
annddd there are many times when girls really ARENT playing anything. theyre just really dense or really.... not interested.
A-choo
lol, probably want more attention >< buh it does work sumtimes o;

teh techniques in fanfics usually ;P buh it works rite?

buh sum girls mite juss be naturally like hard to get, becuz they dun't trust many people n r scared to get hurt ;X

Don't play hard to get, BE hard to get. I think girls cling on too easily sometimes (speaking from own experience) and having your own life and mind is good for both you and the guy, because he will appreciate you more, but more importantly, you will value yourself more as well.

It's annoying when girls make 'playing hard to get' a game just so they can manipulate the guy and play around with his feelings though. That's just unnecessary.
owlsgo
maybe she's testing you if you're someone she can trust. smile.gif
like someone who will stick through til the end. keke

Agreed with bolded.
Playing hard to get is immature, but some girls ARE actually hard to get. I would say, show you want her for a bit but if she's still playing hard to get, just let her go.
