I have a friend who is only 35 but she runs off every man she is interested in. She is not overbearing, is intelligent, funny, and is great fun to be around. However, she scares guys off with her over-eligibility. She seldom makes concrete plans because she wants to be available.
She doesn’t know how to live the legitimate aspect of hard-to-get. It’s not a game. It’s giving someone space. But more so, it is letting the other person know she has a life without him and that is crucial for any relationship to be healthy. Men don’t like to feel smothered and it doesn’t hurt them to know that occasionally (or may even frequently) the object of their affection has other things to do that don’t include them.
Besides, it keeps up interest. We all can get bored with someone really quick when they are always around. And one thing the young women of today’s culture have not learned is that men really do like to do the chasing. And when they are chased, they run.
