Many women like to play hard-to-get. I just wonder whether this is a direct reason that many guys dump a woman after getting whatever they want from her, or just getting bored of her.

I don't understand the question, but I don't really go into a relationship with any plan to dump the female after achieving some specific short term goal either. I'm far from normal though.

The idea is this: some women play hard-to-get, so men can feel it is justified to have the intention of dumping a girl after getting what they like to get. Do men have such mentality? Also, does it seem justifiable? Why, or why not?

Yes with some men. When women purposely play hard to get and play mind games, some men like to play along to get in her pants and dump her just to be an a-hole right back.

I think, more women who dont play hard to get, get dumped more than the ones that do.

For me, I don't like to waste time. I'm direct and upfront. Playing hard-to-get gets you kicked to the curb if you don't quit that @#$%.

With me, that wouldn't be the case. If a woman unnecessarily plays hard to get, then I'll likely just move on to someone that won't play these childish games.

I've never played hard to get, but I have had a difficult time with some men not taking a hint that I'm not interested. Even if I say this isn't working out.
Since this 'playing hard to get' is such a common theme, maybe some men misinterpret and the lady just isn't interested?

She's probably relieved when the guy finally gives up and she gets 'kicked to the curb' then.

Playing hard to get is all part of the fun of courtship which I absolutely LOVE as it's exciting and adds to the chase/thrill

I'm sure if sex has already occurred then playing hard to get probably won't be the reason the bloke moved on , it usually happens BEFORE sex and in most cases it ends because the bloke can't read the signs, take the hint or cant be bothered with going through the motions of playfully playing hard to get

Congratulations!

Now you are aware that the actions of unconscious human behavior is what creates a vicious circle!

So, the real question is: What are YOU gonna do about it?
