Playing tough is one of the oldest and most effective tools women have to use on men. Do you need to know the basic and advanced techniques? Here’s a quick lesson for making him want you more:
Back to the playground
You can easily understand the “hard to get” game by remembering the playground when you were little. Do you remember playing tag? That’s pretty much what we’re doing here, just a grown-up version of the tag.
If your man is “it” and he’s chasing you, you should slow down to let him get to you. Then, you sprint again and leave him in the dust. Playing hard to get is the exact same concept: you let your guy get far enough that he almost thinks he has you before you make him chase again.
First, get him involved
The first step is to engage him and arouse his interest in you. Get his attention by wearing something outrageously sexy or by flirting with him in a very obvious way.
Once you’re sure he’s intrigued and wants more, it’s time to start the chase.
Hard to get moves
Any move he makes on you, reject or ignore it. Do not do this in a cruel or malicious way; the key is to keep it fun so you want to keep trying. This is a game, after all.
So keep things light as you shut down any attempts he makes towards you. If you call, do not answer and wait a long time to call back or do not call back. If he sends you an email or text, don’t reply. If he asks you out, you’ll be busy on the night he requests.
Time to throw him a bone
The timing must be right in this next step. You want to give in and let him get a little closer only after you’ve made a strong (but unspoken) point to reject him.
Likewise, you don’t want to ignore it for too long. It is crucial to keep him thinking that you are interested in him, but that it will not be easy to win you over.
accept a date
He will show a lot of persistence if he is playing well. The hard to get game is useful not only for making him want you more, but also for measuring how much he wants you in the first place.
Say yes to one of his advances and date him. He may be surprised that you finally agreed, and he will definitely be relieved.
keep your distance
When you’re officially dating, keep your distance and avoid anything too romantic or too sexual. However, some implied sexual talk and sexy looks are essential.
While flirting with him and looking sexy, you are firmly resisting any intense physical action at the same time. This will drive him crazy and keep his mind spinning.
Keep going
Don’t hit and stay strong. Go out with him and let things get more serious or intense, but don’t sleep with him.
Have fun being the ice princess and turn your back on him, avoiding or overlooking him a bit during courtship. However, alternate this with periods of intense heat. Show her more affection or buy her something sentimental, for example. If you keep changing it, it ensures that it never gets too comfortable and takes you for granted.
