It should not be a matter of how long you've been single that defines if you feel like starting the hunt...
but perhaps if it is in your nature to be the aggressor.

If you only lead the courtship because you've been single for 5 years, it may send out a bit of the wrong signal. If your persona is one of being a tad demur... and then you begin being a hunter, once you have your prey you may resort to your original disposition. This may prove disappointing for them, as they saw you as a more lively aggressor.

Then again, perhaps being the initiator might spark some inner power in you & open new channels for experiences. Only you will be able to answer this puzzle.

Enjoy the courtship, either way.

Chase! Or be chased. Just make sure you are in the game. The old saying states: If you are not in the game you can't win.

Hunting??...that's for the dark ages dear...just send him a pair of your worn-out knickers, and ask him to send a new pair and a plane ticket in return....usually works a treat...

You certainly don't have to go "chasing" after a man or start "hunting", but you also don't have to sit back and do nothing if a man comes along that you like. wave

I see nothing wrong with a little persuit as long as it doesn't turn into stalking.

There was a time, when I wanted to find someone & "settle down". But that was quite a few years ago. Now, I go with the flow. If something comes along, great. If not, that's fine too. I have enough going on in my life/world to keep me happy & occupied.

I've noticed over the years that when I did "chasing", they ended up running the other way. One guy even told his friends I wouldn't leave him alone! I'm by no means "desparate". I've never spoken to him again, to this day.

There was one guy, several years ago, whom I would call & even visit. We had dated a few times, but he never really seemed extremely interested. So, I left him alone. Years later, he now calls me!

There are a number of things that should be illegal for women to do when it comes to men. Number 1 should be chasing after a man.

Never do that. Ever. Ever, Ever, Ever!

If a man starts to show interest, play it cool and let him come to you. He must be hot on fire for more than having a purely physical experience, he should be burning up for you.

Furthermore, he should be the first to tell you how much he wants you, wants to get to know you, the things that he loves and desires in you and how you make him feel. This is only when you can put your guard down and actually tell him how you are feeling, if it is the same.

Men love to chase, they are not made to be chased. Chasing a man will put out his burners for you.

The hardest thing to do is to see a man that you truly desire and leave him the heck alone. You may feel like you are going mad and may need to be committed because you are in lust with him.

You cannot actually develop an emotional connection unless you begin to communicate and exchange energy with him. So don't go there. It's not actually being "in love."

Make a man come after you by pulling and pushing. Pull him in when he shows interest then push him back a bit so that his interest can continue to grow.

It's not a game, it's called smart dating.

I have seen the same thing. Now I just go with the flow. Oddly enough, I have also found that once I start dating someone the flood gates seem to open and I get all kinds of people interested. Months of barren desert followed by a flood.
