Why try to make a guy you like jealous when you already know he likes you?

[chris0977]

Women often get frustrated w/ me on this, because I tell them, "special people are rare. If I were born anywhere else, I'd simply have different friends, relationships, and you can be replaced", of course, being egotistical, as many are, they take offence to not being elevated above others in attention, thought, etc., but, in reality, truth is, nearly everyone is replaceable.

I had to learn life skills, and if they can't have a functional relationship, I'll go somewhere where someone can, as I've worked hard on myself, deserve what I get & she is facing her reality relative to the level of effort she puts into working on herself - if she screws up, she can go work on herself & better luck next time - many women I meet dislike this, but fail to argue because I am in favor of equal rights & hold women to the same standard as myself.

I dont get this tactic if she likes you to she would be coming for you to waste of time and effort these women mate

[DestinyElizabeth04]

Because we know you like us but how much do you like us? Huh?

It's a stupid and childish head game that women play. I have actually done this. Granted, I was 16 and still in high school. When women get older they tend to quit with the bullshit. At least a little anyways. 🤷‍♀️

To get the show on the move for him to make it official, because you showed him there are others trying to get the same as he wants. This just pushes him to man up to make the move on you getting into a relationship with each other.

Need more context? Does he show his interest, or does he try to play it cool?
If he’s showing obvious interest, then I find it stupid. If he isn’t showing any interest, then its she might feel as if she has to find ways to catch his attention more. And what better way than to make him jealous? (Otherwise, she might just be playing with his feelings and enjoys getting attention... which would be selfish and rude)

thats mind games. best counter to it (though it still sucks) is to reply with a form of "then let one of them work to get you, i'm out"

Take a hard pass on girls like this. If she is problematic with head games before you start dating she will only continue the head games later. Find a sane girl.

I get the whole playing hard to get stage but I lose interest in a girl when she drags it out way too long. Sometimes girls want to keep you waiting because they want time to let go of people from their past but it's important that she actually communicates that to you.

It's more about the word love

than being liked

she wants you to use the l word first

cause it's a game to her

[Avicenna]

Maybe she likes being chased
