This is why I try to avoid hooking up with people I work with, lol. With all due respect, he may just not be interested, at least not as interested in you as you are in him. Guys don’t normally flirt with girls in front of a girl he likes. Then again some guys are kinda oblivious to girls liking them. If it’s bothering you should tell him how you feel, flat out, in plain and simple terms, if nothing else he’ll be a little more conscientious about flirting with girls in front of you.
No, it's not attractive and he's acting like child. It won't get any better unless he sees a reason to change on his own and it doesn't sound like he's ready for that. It's best to let this one go and find someone that's not afraid to show you that they want you.
I think he's immature. But I also think you shouldn't play games either. I don't think anyone should play games, men or women. How about stop with this passive-aggressive shit and just be straight with one another.
Exactly! I've never understood why people are expected to play games rather than just be upfront about their feelings. For some reason, being upfront is considered "weird" almost, but I don't get it. Playing games strikes me as really immature and is an instant turnoff.
do I think it is attractive? No. however he could not view it the same way you do, what you call 'hard to get' another could call 'not seeming to desperate but doing just enough and waiting for reciprocation'.
being open and honest with your intentions can put some people off. such as, let's be friends first before we try anything more, whereas other prefer to jump straight into dating.
I don't know when they're playing hard to get and when they just aren't interested. They usually just piss me off and I start to call everyday once or twice a day until I get of doing it. It's more for their annoyance than mine. lol
Why are you proclaimed that he must take initiative because his a man instead of taking initiative yourself since you obviously are interested in him since you put interest in caring that he does this?
I won't find attractive a girl who flirts with all men except with me, in fact I would tend to ignore her, or if she comes to me, I would assume she only wants friendship. To me playing hard is come to my place and say, do you have time for a coffee?

No it's annoying as shit! I am the kind of person that NEEDS a clear cut yes or no answer, it's not gonna hurt my feelings.
Playing hard to get is stupid game playing.
However, this is a case that I'd like to hear the other side of the story. Not sure if he is being a jerk, or you are imagining things.

That's what I'm saying!! Thank you.
You're welcome! Thank YOU!

No. Playing hard to get is one of the most unattractive behaviors.
I'm not into that.

I don't find it attractive and have better things to do than to continue playing the same games from High School.
No. If a woman is going to play hard to get I will move on. She is either interested or she's not. I don't have time for those games.
No, I wouldn't chase anyone. If they aren't interested I won't pursue it further. No Matter If it was all just an act or not
Have you ever confessed your feelings for him? Or has he ever said straight to you that he likes you?
I dont purposely try to play hard to get, im just shy at first. But every guy I've talked to so far has been into that.
Personally, I get turned off when a guy is all over me, so a certain extent of distancing works for me. Just not too much, or I get bored or offended.
The only reason I appreciate it is the fact I'm no chaser. Distance works for me, relationships don't.
When I play hard to get, I'm usually not interested and the other person doesn't take a hint.
sounds like your guy is more of a mind game player than interested in normal relationship tbh

uuuhm depends to what degree, i think there's a fastly crossed line between hard to get and just being an asshole if im honest.
No. Not at all. I don't like people who play mind games.
Stay away from him. There are so many red flags just in your few senfences!
