Ireadalot: I think there's a bit of danger labelling someone hard to get. Lots of people are shy and like to for a friendship and feel respected as a person before they jump right in with both feet. As star said, taking things slow can be importsnt, especially with little kids. You don't want to introduce them to someone you aren't sure of



i would not label...sometimes these things become more prominent with time, and every circumstance is different, its about distinguishing realities, maybe more so whos for real, and whos a player, Shy is different again, i dont think hard to get...are scared of putting themselves out there, i have total respect for those who wish to take there time...as long as they are true to there words :)

i think myself if its all about getting someone into bed then it is a game, i just think its good to take it slow sometimes, and with me its not about sleeping with someone... but i think u know at the end of the day if its going anywhere,if its all one sided the chasing, or if one party shows no interest then ur bashing ur head against a wall,and ur heading for a whole world of heart ache j.m.odrinking

skippyguy: heck that would be good,...neva that much honesty sometimes though...al though it was funny this chick turned up at our table after soccer saturday ..knew one of us...she was talking away (quite...umm intoxicated), and she was talking of herself stalking another guy..in a manner of speaking, i was surprised when she said...she was waiting outside the nightclub and guy came from inside and said to her what do you want...and she said im waiting to root you..


yes generally we women have a wonderful way with words when we're totally smashed rolling on the floor laughing

starcrossfish: If you 'don't know' that person is playing game's with you, then your stuffed!!

Playing 'hard to get'...could be her way of getting to know you 1st
You could be right, giving me flirtatious stares and looks but taking off while I'm usually busy. I've never actually been able to chat to this lady and have never seen her until yesterday and then again today.

*Insert wise looking guru here*

Ahhh the age old question... was it a flirtatious stare, or had she forgotten her reading glasses and was trying work out the sign behind your head????

Maybe she's shoplifting and thats why she takes off when you get distracted laugh

skippyguy: hmmm difficult to answer, and i think alot of that come down to mixed messages...but nevatheless, i can *recall* situations where i can only think its been a game to some, for various reasons and some not worth going into......we all have different circumstances, and experineces, gosh seriously i can even recall where i had been talking with a person for sometime, who had a fake pic of herself..(long time ago now..), who played this sort of on off game half the time...nevathe less a person i was gonna meet, wether this is hard to get or hard to fathom, the only outcome seems to be hurt
weather there is deeper issues or watevr going on...i just know things were not explained, realities, not realized
i certainly try not to label, but at times i run on wat info i have, and i am certainly not hostile in nature..lol
it is easy to categorize people, and there is always 2 sides to a story...
Actually at times iv heard woman comparing other woman as game players, in the term of its way of the world....get with the program..so to speak..lol
Anyways this wild n wonderful world has many ways, and many people, im just one :)
Sounds like a bored housewife playing up online pretending to be single, but just there for the online banter and not willing to go further because of her situation.

I think this counts for me. I am very shy,also a blusher.
I also don't want to come across as too easy.
I think its probably my downfall, but I just not that forward in that way. frustrated
