Why Women Play Hard-to-Get?
The masters of playing hard to get – them women. There are 2 types of them, money-friendly and heart-friendly. The money-friendly women that play “hardest” to get, are out for the golden ticket, the Benjamins.
The second version is heart-friendly, THE ultimate catch! She has the right reasons to get what she wants and what she merits. She can see a player light years away. So, she is plays hard to get to see who has the “staying power” to work and earn for her affection.
She may tease and give you the signals to induce you. She wants you to progress, but either slowly or at the pace she wants. This gives her assurances that she is not just squandering her time with a player who will say anything to get into her pants.
So, men, she is playing hard to get not to avoid getting caught by a player, but to catch the right one. 
Well er.. a woman is not a “woman” if she don’t play jual mahal. LOL!
*hides behind a bush*
why women play hard to get? because they can….
yup they do play hard to get
but deep inside dying to be taken 
(“thats she likes you” but when she doesn’t they don’t even bother play that game at all)
now im confused…
the confuse me 
heck women can’t shoot them can’t live without them
i meant ” now im confused…
they confuse me 
”
sorry for the typo oh Great Gallivanter
Aiyah.. this one happened since stone age one. Just like in the animal kingdom. The lioness will scratch here and there making lot’s of noise. But the Lion who are always ‘gung-ho’and have the right chemistry will sure win one… grr..
*coffeerox standing on her feet giving a standing ovation!*
For once someone nailed it right!
we don’t play hard because we have nothing else to do… but it is to make sure we allow the right one to get in.
I am beginning to think you are the guy of my dreams…
so when you free to get married?
hehehehe……….
^__^
I dun think a woman consciously plays hard to get ler, she oni wants what she wants. So if you happen to be what she wants then it shud be a piece of cake. Example to back up my “theory” – friend of mine she says her criteria was very simple, the guy has to be taller than her (she is very tall), so to all the short guys who doesn’t know that, that’s what she is looking for will think she is playing hard to get but in actuality she has oni one criteria.
Gal, i know debbie and i know jacq told me that debbie told her she doesnt know any sabah bloggers. Maybe she thinks of me as a colleague and not a blogger… we work in the same floor
OK.
This is too difficult for me..
Next, please! LOL.
u understand women so well!
cindy Based on my experience, that is true.
clement Men can too. Though the reasons may be different.
Lucifer Well, you can’t blame them for safeguarding themselves against players.
Kay Kastum Errr…what’s that gonna do with hard to get?
coffeerox Well, I spoke to a few ladies in the past and that helped me to understand. Me, marriage? LOL.
Firehorse Hmm, that may be true. But I think one can tell between a woman who plays hard-to-get and a woman who’s not interested, because there will be hidden signals.
Julian Err…I don’t think Jacq & Debbie know each other yet. That’ll change in July. Let’s meet up.
pelf Is it really?
huei Well, I try to understand women. Still some way to go. I don’t get it right all the time you know.
i cant deny your theory..seems like u know women better..and better everyday..wish that you can compile your theory and pass it to others on the street..so, no war later lar..but, boys also cover their ultimate ego maa…
..emm..the lioness scratching?
lin No, I’m still a work in progress when it comes to understanding women.
Kay Kastum LOL. Okay!
I only play hard to get in my dreams and hubby is blardy lucky to get me….I wonder if he realizes that
In my next life, I’m definitely playing as hard as I can until I get a Brad Pitt..
p/s in short, can’t confirm your observation :-p
well you get it right enough
yes we wouldnt even bother playing if you weren’t being assesed
you should run classes for the non players ;p
We do it because it’s fun, really. And if we are too easy to get, guys won’t stick around for long.
This is a very good topic Daniel. Even though I am one step away from getting married but this topic made me think about my former life and…
I noticed that the best relationships I had was when I just kept it real…not straight-forward not hard to get…
from what I heard from my guy friends is that even though the chase is fun sometimes, the games girls play make them not want to go forward. And a lot of times if they play the girls game is because the girl is so hot and they feel it’s worth it to get laid. In the end, the ones that really play the girls hard to get games is the men who’s main objective is to get the “Prize”
I don’t think girls should throw themselves at the guy but I don’t think the girls should play the game too hard…I don’t know…all the women that are reading this blog, how many times have playing hard to get landed you the right man?
I understand woman’s intentions but is our method effective?
Yeah Huei’s right…you understand women very well. How come?! You’ve been doing a lot of research into our species is it?!
somebody’s playing the dr. love these days…hehehe.
what i know is that not ALL women play hard to get because they are assessing u or for money. Some just do it because it’s fun. or because they won’t refuse a lavish gift or fancy dining. out to squeeze as much as they can. NOT ALL. but some.
Guys live for the chase, that’s why women play hard to get!
Jewelle LOL. In your next life, Brad Pitt will look like the one I blogged about earlier – hollywood baldness.
visithra Non-players classes? Let me get attached first then I’ll look into that.
Sha Of course, but also, do know when to stop…
Rudy *APPLAUSE* I love your comment – thought provoking. Any ladies wanna answer that? “how many times have playing hard to get landed you the right man?” Hmm…
Pinkelle Yes, I have been researching the opposite gender.
tihtahpah It’s fun? Hmm…well, I suppose when there are many players (the uber males) in the dating scene, some women turn into vixens to take revenge because they got burnt before.
Giddy Tiger Yes, guys like challenge, I mean, who doesn’t? But, sometimes, playing hard-to-get goes OTT. See Rudy’s comment.
Hope you dun mind, I set up your stall (link you) at my kopitiam, your stall name Gallivanter’s original coconut buns, ok or not? If not ok just let me know, can change anytime wan.
Firehorse Of course I don’t mind, but even better, you could quote me after my favorite food in the whole wide world, Sambal Ikan Bilis.
Dan – I know you in real life and I know what an affable fella you are.
I also know you’re single, and by virtue of my work, I know this is subtle advertising at it’s very best.
Sorry for calling you out, buddy – at least the ladies will know you have taken the trouble to do the hard work, eh…
Keropok,
I have known Daniel for 10 years and he is not that kind of man. He doesn’t do things for personal gain on any level. He has a talent for writing and he has acquired an audience…he is doing this for the common good…there are people who are writing books about topics like this for money…Daniel is here to provide awareness…
I wasn’t sure if you were joking or not but a comment like that could give people the wrong impression and his
genuine efforts to bring this awareness does not deserve any level of dubiousness.
You must admit that there are men who play hard to get too…especially the ones who think they are God’s gift to the earth and who are totally in love with their looks!
Might as well self-service yourselves for the rest of your lives since apparently no one is good enough
Not playing, not getting, not wanting, not needing it…..but they never get it.
So I let them be & live on.
Good that you got it. There are not many of you around.
Keropok LOL. Sorry dude, you met me once and you jumped to that conclusion? My main objectives is to enlighten men, that’s it.
Rudy Thanks Rudy, Keropok kinda jumped the gun on this one. It’s okay, Manure fans tend to do that, it’s their nature. LOL.
sabrina Hmm, personally, I don’t play hard-to-get. That person will know whether I like them or not and I don’t really see the need for men to do it.
pummkin Well, I hope this entry kick some sense into some men.
because that’s the only way to find true love. Only the strongest guy will prevail….this is referring to the heart-friendly type of women la.
Rudy – easy tiger…. eeee-asy! I’m just kidding about and I think Dan knows it. Perhaps…
Dan – macam marah aje. I play-play only maa…
Che-Cheh But what if the woman plays too hard to get?
Keropok Dude, my best friend deserves much more respect than that. And no, I’m not angry, how can I be angry to women?
Keropok…I am not angry that is why I said maybe you were joking but it was important for me that Dan’s readers don’t get the wrong idea about him. He works really hard to be honest in his writing and always do the right thing. It would be unjust if his pure intentions becomes tainted just because of a joke which probably hard to tell because no one can see your face when you wrote it.
He is single because of choice and he most definitely does not need to do any advertising for himself…he does fine just being himself.
Ok…guilty as charged BUT not solely for the ‘golden ticket’ though. Come on, we are all players. The only different is the way you play the game. You want it rough? steady? calm? intense? passionate? dull? uneventful? After all, what are games without thrills….I know I’m looking for one
*oppss…*
erm..true also but..i go for wat i want.i dont wait for them to come.
u never know u might miss out the best if u don take the 1st step =D
You probably have really high esteem then Dan.
You’ll need to, you’re an Arsenal fan!
Rudy Thanks buddy. *HUGS*
WanderingSumandak You looking for a thrilling Benjamin?
belle Wow, that’s the spirit!
Keropok Hahahahaha! Basket!
LOL – haven’t heard “basket” for a long time! Remember back when we were kids and starting to get an instinct for swearing??? Want to say “bas****” but start off and get stares from mum and go “baaaaas…ket” instead.
“What the fff…ish?” was another one!
Rudy : do you blog? ;p or could you like blog at danny boys place? ;p
Theres a very delicate balance on playing hard to get. Too much and you risk losing the guy, to little you end up being termed easy. But I guess it depends on who the person is
if it’s a total stranger of course you tend to play the game coz you’re trying to figure out the person
But when its someone you know or you’re familiar with say a friends friend – it’s a more delicate situation as whatever the conclusion you could end up hurting the person – sometimes honesty works best n not torturing the already nervous guy would be really welcomed
but it also depends on how honest/ sincere the guy is – the one who stats waxing lyricals of his ego is just putting himself on a platter to be played with ;p
what the fish head curry… hahaha… good topic Dan. and i must say Dan is not trying to ‘advertise himself’ or anything like that…
he is single by choice and confident to stand on his own. Not like many who think it wrong to be single and jump at the first chance to be in a relationship..
I think it healthy to play hard to get, it shows confidence… and it’s sexy if i may add..
I say “fish” a lot since I am working in the corporate world.
Visithra…I love writing but I have been so busy with work so to take a breather from my crazy life I visit Daniel’s and cause a ruckus.
I think if you want to play, you just have to have style and finesse and yeh, make the men earn the attention.
Being single is not a bad thing…
girls memang like to play hard to get lor… because she wanted to feel that she’s important ma.
i guess everyone wants to feel important too, right? the attention, the care… we all love that, don’t we?
and i think they know that once guys got their hands on them, guys won’t be sooooo caring anymore… because already got it liao ma
Keropok I still use “basket”, but hardly “fish”.
Hmmm, gives me an idea for another entry…
visithra Sincerity does play a part, for both the genders.
Mo Thanks. Well, to be fair, Keropok didn’t know better. It’s normal la for a Manure fan, I’m sure you already know that. LOL.
Rudy Well, I believe you’re gonna be having an article ready for me next week?
Lorraine Branson Earning the attention is a good way to filter out the players from the non-players.
conan_cat Well, not all guys are like that. You’d be surprised.
Would you marry me?
can you please just go ahead and publish a book on women so that John Gray can go and rest in peace? His men mars women venus theory is so simplistic man. you are DA MAN. are you married??? taken? damn! and i like baldies too.
well, they wanna play with mens’ heart… all guys beware… thread carefully… it’s always a dangerous place to be… the women territory
playing hard-to-get is fun.. you can really know if the guy got some patience with you. surely something to be remembered when/if he succeeded to have you as a partner.
wasnt you guys are into women’s coy smile? that mysterious come-get-me look that we threw at you guys whenever you approach us?
something i know from my male friends.. :p
dan, nice blog you have here…
BB Depends, do I have to pay your parents RM1K for every step in your house in exchange for you?
marsha Maybe I will, but aren’t there gazillion books out there on gender issues? No, I’m neither married nor taken.
zewt LOL, well, to be fair, not all of them are like that.
priscilla The coy smile can misinterpreted sometimes. Well, you’re right though, a challenge is necessary, but with balance of course.
meaning that too much of challenge can be annoyingly irritating?
