    Move on.

    I know someone like that. Frustrating as hell.

    Im sorry, that sucks.

    Maybe she's confused about what she wants?

    Men, women who play the "Hard-To-Get" mindgame are sadists and should be avoided at all costs. This is just the first installment of the never-ending series of mindgames they will subject you to, ultimately ending in one collossal mindfuck that leaves you single and in therapy. Run.

    Women, if you're playing the "Hard-To-Get" game, be careful you don't play that role too well. Your youthful assets have a shelf life. If you mess around too long, you'll be playing "Can't-Give-It-Away" instead of "Hard-To-Get".

    Back when I was a JW - and trying to date... it was very frustrating. I was awkward, as it was, and then to get these gals who would play the 'I just want to be friends' game... oi-vei.

    After I got divorced, I started meeting gals again. Non-JW ones this time. Most that I met were very nice. One though... was... well... odd.

    I think that perhaps she was trying to be 'careful'. We met for lunch one day, all I knew was her online 'name' or handle. She refused to tell me her real name. (Red Flag #1.) I laughed it off, and continued with the lunch - trying to be social and get to know her. Nice gal. Well... after that lunch, I decided to not pursue.

    A few weeks later, I got an e-mail from her. 'Want to meet for lunch?' Sure, why not. So we again meet and talk. Nice gal. But she still wouldn't give me her real name. (Red Flag #2) I decided that if she was that paranoid about letting out even her first name... she wasn't worth my efforts to try to get to know her.

    I never contacted this gal after the last meeting. I hope she is doing well.

    Gals... I know that you may have had poor experiences with dating in the past... but... if you're gonna play hard to get... you just may never be 'got'.

    Regards,

    "The chase is fun" ???

    When I act not interested or say no by my body language or straight out 'NO,' I really mean it.

    No means NO.

    NO games.

    NO misunderstandings.

    Clear as glass.

    Momz,

    I read that book, too! "Maybe He isn't into You."

    I spotted some weird stuff in it, but over all, it's about taking the person at their word/body language.

    LouBelle,

    I, too, am in that pimping myself out phase or whatever it is, but not for real love.

    I want friends with benefits.

    I did it with two people once each over the span of two years (not a whore!) and found that I prefer to do it with my friends than with people who I don't know, love, or even like.

    Please don't get hurt. Sex doesn't bring love.

    I haven't found love. I gave up on it, and that's why I prefer FWB because at least I love them as friends and trust them to not hurt me.

    I don't have a FWB yet, but I'm working on it.

    It was ok at first, sister plays coy and all, but as I got older, I found it to be a bunch of BS, and I don't appreciate it. I tell you what I think, and I want to know where I stand. I found some JW's to be into games,BS, and the like.

    Its time to move on, or its time to give in.
