Does ignoring a girl who likes you will that work? WHEN I SAY WORK WILL SHE MISS YOU AND GET IN A LINE. wHY DOES IT WORK
Well sadly it works on me and i can't tell you why because i dont even know why...
I have been attached to guys in 2 extremes he talks to me often or never talks to me. If its some inbetween of him not starting conversations and im starting them, I lose interest and feel irritated but then find a guy who wil talk to me often or rarely speak to me but appreciate me if that makes sense.
I think its deeper then just not talking to a person, i think its showing you like them and listening intently to them at first and then not being around anymore when you feel like that persons going to talk to you often... because who wants a person that appreciates them to disapear? no one :((
So if the guy is nice and takes interest in the beginning and them leaves I am like "What a jerk he left!!" and then "He left :/.." and then "Why did he stop talking to me, thought he liked me :((" and it gets more pathetic (at least in my process) This happened to me a couple of days ago actually and I realized i was obsessing over the guy and couldnt stop thinking about why he didn't like me if i did something wrong (it is hellish) and wanted to make him jealous and etc...
I think the female equivalent, now that I think of it, would be having sex with a guy, saying how she feels protected and he's so strong and amazing in bed and how it was the best sex ever (she does everything) and then leaving and never answering his calls?
Both are a little mean
Because a girl does not want an easy man same as men. Women asume that men that don't give attention to them or other women have self control n that when they do finally show interest it's for real n special and that the mans interest is just on them, not evey other female. Women like a secure man that knows what he wants and are quick to assume that most men are confused players. The sexiest thing is when a man likes a women ignores, disses every other women for that one special lady. It's not about you ignoring her it's about you knowing what you really want and showing her. Also theirs another percentage of females that like the chase like when you go fishing. Once they catch the fish the excitement is over. Those are the immature beauties that are use to getting tons of attention or know they look good. Example I use to think like the immature ones now if a man ignores me when I ignore him I'm happy he's giving me my space that I need. I don't care and I won't give him more attention. The older you get the less you play the dating games. They get old and you look for partners that don't like playing them as well. It's a game and if she's playing it just call her out on it if you don't like it. If you do, than try n play the game better than her.
it makes people feel insecure when you ignore them. they want to feel like they didn't do anything wrong or suddenly become unattractive. this is not them LIKING OR WANTING YOU MORE. its just them seeking what they feel to be lost approval.
once they feel secure they'll go back to how they were. which if they already liked you thats fine. if they did not care much, then you're going to have to constantly be running away from them in order to get them to stay with you. it doesn't work,
games are for short term goals. not relationships.
of course its good to have space, but thats just a healthy aspect of any relationship. keeping your own person while you share it with someone else.
but running to create more affection or interest. it doesn't work. its like a crash diet. its not 'reAl' weight. it creeps back unless you just dont eat. which does not go well with living.
eliciting a provoked reaction does not mean effecting permanent change.
Why do women seem to give you more attention when you do not give them as much attention?
It's a common phenomenon that has been dubbed "the paradox of choice." When we're presented with too many options, we have a hard time making a decision. And when it comes to dating, this can be a major problem.
When you're talking to a woman, she's constantly evaluating you. She's trying to figure out if you're worth her time and energy. And one of the factors she takes into consideration is how much attention you're giving her.
If you're showering her with attention, she knows that she can get your attention anytime she wants. But if you're not giving her as much attention, she'll start to wonder why. She'll start to think that maybe you're not that interested in her. And that's when she'll start to give you more attention.
It's a simple case of supply and demand. When the demand for your attention is high, you become a hot commodity. And when you're in high demand, women will be more than happy to give you their attention.
Put yourself in the females shoes. If she is even halfway decently attractive then she has guys chasing her around all the time. Guys come easy to them, and in bulk.
So when she comes across one who does not seem to be all that interested in her, she finds this different and intriguing..
So to answer your question. Will ignoring a girl work? It will likely get you a different reaction. But if you're a needy/desperate type of guy who gives attention to any and all women that give you the time of day, then your true colors will eventually show and she will be turned off by that at some point when it happens.
The long play here would be in not giving women too much attention, but that should be coming from a place of secure masculinity instead of a trick that will just serve to spark some temporary attraction.
yea idn its so tricky, i always wondered the same personally I have a crush on a girl and I noticed when I ignore her she wants to talk to me more but then when I am too nice to her, its like whatever, I am figuring out if this girl like me or not still

I had some modicum of fame and success in my youth and I think that has made me think more like a girl.
The average girl receives about as much attention as the top percentage of popular guys. Being in that top percentage (only slightly, mind you), I received way more attention from girls that I actually wanted. I seem to be one of the fewer guys that can relate to women on receiving more sexual attention that we actually want.
So I would be approached by women when I didn't even want to be approached, like I'm not in the mood for it. Some would even be pretty but I wasn't in the mood for it, and I wasn't starving for attention from pretty girls when I was in the mood for it.
When you get way more attention from the opposite sex than you actually want, which might be rare for most men, the one who minds her own business and doesn't approach you starts to become the most interesting woman in the room. She's the one who doesn't bother you, doesn't hassle you, doesn't ruin your day as with the other girls waiting in line to talk to you.
You start to find the one who isn't waiting in line the most appealing, because now you have to win her over, and she's not offering her to you on a silver platter.
Do you mean if you ignore a girl will it get her to like you? If that's what you mean, the answer is no. For a short time she will have an infatuation with you and want to gain your attention but eventually if she doesn't get that attention she will move on to someone who will. If you play this card play it very delicately. If you give a girl attention and then start to ignore her that is even worse. That is a tease and when the attention suddenly stops she will wonder what happened or what is wrong with her, causing her to also move on and possibly be very upset.
Women really have no idea how they feel or what they want. Simple as.
Don't worry about seeming clingy or playing hard to get or any of that nonsense. Just stop stressing about all of that immediately.
If you try to outplay women's stupid little mind games and shit tests they play by playing your own games it just leads to more stress and misery. Adopt a better frame of mind. Do you like a girl? Talk to her. Does she act interested? Great. Does she act wishy-washy and play silly games? Tell her you don't appreciate these dumb games she's playing. Does she continue to play games even after you talked to her about it? Move on.
The only winning move is to not play the game. You don't need to be an asshole, but be direct. Tell her exactly how things are going to be and if she isn't on board, move on. She didn't like you anyways.
Well in my case, if a guy gives me too much attention, I feel like he's obsessed with me or something, and if I'm not totally crushing on the guy, I'll feel like he's suffocating me with attention. However, if a guy gives me a lot of attention, and then less, and then less, I would feel like I'm missing something. Then it keeps me wondering, "Why isn't he paying as much attention to me?" Then I'll start talking to him.
These types of games don't generally work when a girl isn't interested in you in the first place.
If she is... then if you ignore her for too long she will move on.
Or If she gets a whim that you're being disingenuous then you can bet she'll think you're just a silly little man.
That's why best to be yourself.
Nope. It's off putting to me, I would personally just ignore him and move on to another guy who showers me in love affection and attention lol. Many many many guys will, so why would I hang around waiting for a guy who ignores me as if I'm nothing. Bye.
I am going crazy in the same situation I played it relaxed and like I didn't want a real relationship. Now I do and he has pulled away and I think seeing someone else also. So it goes both ways, I would say yes she will want you more for sure just be careful so she doesn't add a new man to fill the void. Make sure to reply if she text you but wait a while to make her wonder but to make sure you keep her hooked send a goodnight or good morning with a wink before she sends you one. back at you will it kill my relationship if I come out and just say hey the hook up is fantastic but I really want to go to the next step?
Eh, only little girls play those games. I personally am not interested in chasing any guy around. Why would I? There's nothing he can do for me that I can't find one hundred other guys to do.
Any attractive girl is used to being harassed and pursued, so she's going to be intrigued by a guy who seems interested, but then disappears and doesn't come after her...
If they likes you, they're going to find out you more.
Let the women give you more attention s (pursue), and then you CAN'T be dumped/don't know where you stand between attractions from you both.
Don't ignore her completely but don't follow her around like a lost puppy either. Some girls will give you more attention others might just shy away thinking you don't like them.
WHAT ARE WE YELLING ABOUT?
Yes, it works.
Because the way human's brains work is when something is easy to get, we place a lower value on it. I. E. - free money causing staffing issues at restaurant chains.
Same concept applies here.
It doesn't make her like you. It just makes her think she might be losing you.
If you give them too much attention or try too hard you seem desperate and that's very unattractive to them.
If a guy is being clingy than I can understand why she would care less
It works with some women, with others it has opposite results.
same reason why guys chase after women that couldnt care less and ignore the good girl who actually likes him
it worked on me once , now i just block them or move on to the next guy
personally im the opposite. if a guy doesn't give me attention or acts kinda distant ill usually think im annoying them and try to avoid them a bit more to give them their space. but I don't know it depends on the girl really. everyones different
