Kinda like listening to the doctor, because you're the one that's sick and he isn't.

Makes alllllllll kinds of sense ...


Or maybe it's a strong signal that says "Man, what a jerk! Get me outta here ... "
This is about opposite sex relationships.

To conclude something about these attractive women is silly.

Are there good looking people that have self esteem issues? Sure, there is an exception to every rule. But that is not what is at work here.

My wife tells me that one of the hardest things a good looking girl has to cope with is avoiding eye contact with undesirable guys so that you don't have to hurt their feelings by saying: "sorry, not interested."

That's what is at work here.
Good point. I think that's actually what I was trying to say.

Exactly. It's sad that people don't understand this. They immediately assume it's arrogance but maybe it's actually compassion. Disclaimer....of course, I'm not saying it's true for all people.

Any comments on this?

Yes not true...
I dont have attitude issues. Im one of the nicest persons you'll ever meet.
If I have standard that doesnt make me hard to get, I just know what I deserve. I try and look at the persons character and moral value..playing hard to get is High School stuff. As for the chubby ones, I know some that have bubbly personalities that men find attractive.
Its all in how you carry yourself and self esteem and knowing what you deserve, and not carrying what the guy you turned down thinks your playing hard to get.

Opposites attract. Although I welcome women's responses but I don't take them into consideration unless you are are bi/lesbian.

Women of any age can play hard to get especially if they look good.

Confident people play hard to get because they know that their self-worth isn't wrapped up around who they are dating or in a relationship with. Confident people pursue what they want rather than worry about what others might think of them pursuing what they want. Confident people come in various shapes and genders.

Playing hard to get is for people who have time to waste.

Have you ever contemplated that some are hard to get - they're not "playing"?
