Does playing hard to get actually work?

It can, but watch out how you do it. If you are acting completely uninterested, a guy will pick up on that and he will back off. If you're also flirting and acting a little coy, it will drive him insane, and then it will definitely work. Watch out though - if you keep it up for too long, he might just give up on you because of frustration.

Playing hard to get is not good sometimes in few people they love to chase but most guys get discouraged by this because we really don't like it because we never know when you are just playing hard to get or you are just not interested so again this does not work for most guys most of them will assume that your not interested and move on

When I was your age, I chased all the women whether they were hard to get or easy. Not that I succeeded much(I hate being short) but I didn't care for the girls who were difficult. It made them look like snobs. As I grew older, this game got old real quick, real fast. I see it as playing games. If a woman doesn't want a player or someone playing games, this "hard-to-get" is doing just that. I'm not saying give yourself to every man on earth, but be real and straightforward.

For guys, we want girls to be straight up with us. If a girl doesn't act interested, then the guy doesn't think she's interested, so he moves on, simple as that. We don't like games, we would rather things be simple, upfront and honest.

For me it doesn't. Games are fun, but not that kind of game. I figure she just isn't interested.

No it doesn't work it just pisses us off if every time you want to go on a date and they flake we go well guess she doesn't like me next. I have a girl who does that hard to get with me and yeah it drives me nuts.

Girl of course being hard to get works I tell you cause of what happened to me today lol.
on the week before spring break I stole a kiss from my ex and now that we went back to school he thought I was gonna do it again but guess what I played hard to get and at the end he was the one who couldn't hold himself back and he stole a kiss from me.

Honestly I feel that playing hard to get is a waste of time. In the end everyone is happy. I mean if a guy is showing you that he could like you. Why would make him go the fire? Because in the end he will get tired and fed up and go to a girl that is more straight forward. And just because your not playing hard to get doesn't mean your easy

Playing games doesn't get you anywhere in life, especially when it comes to relationships. Instead of "playing hard to get", make yourself approachable, yet have standards and limits for yourself so you don't come off as either easy or snobbish. That way when a guy likes you he'll respect you and won't just want one thing from you.

Only works with players other guys will just think no she's not interested no point in making a fool of myself and will just leave it!

Well I'm a girl and trust me doing this makes all the guys want to come after me an chase me.

I know a friend who has always played hard to get it only worked with players. So I think it's not a good decision.
