Why do guys love the "thrill of the chase"....

""""and then ditch the girl they were trying to get as SOON as the find out that she's interested in them or wants to go to another level on their relationship?""

Correction, please replace the word "guys" with the word playas. Guys don't do this. Playas, jerks, womanizers and wannabe casanovas do this.

""""It's like running a race in the Olympics, and once you get to the finish line they stop, and they're like "Oh, nevermind..." then turn around and go home.""""

Well stop making yourself a PRIZE (medal) to be won over. If you want to meet men who are interested in something more meaningful, don't sit there and ask to be chased and conqured. If you ask to be conquered, you'll attract guys who are **only** interested in the winning.

Women complaining about guys pulling this crap, is like someone complaining about ordering french fries and actually getting french fries.

I hate taking the initiative.

The thrill of the hunt is basic. It's primal, hard wired. Whether it's hunting for girls, money, possessions, or just plain out in the woods hunting. The actual "getting" isn't a tenth as wonderful as gaining ground on that thing you're chasing. Sorry if that doesn't make you feel any better.

It is totally about knowing you can get a girl...once you know you can get a girl, the challenge is over! All the flirting and wondering if you can get a girl's attention adds to the excitement of "the chase." The majority of the time, I don't see the girls I'm chasing as marriage material. So why continue things into a serious relationship? Guys have their fun and then move onto the next girl that grabs their attention.

Some guys like to see how many girls they can get with, and that's really all there is to it. Some guys have trouble committing to girls, so they get so far as finding out the girl likes him, but then he backs off.
