When I was a TEENAGER, this girl had possible feelings for me, and after confirming with the girl's sister, my suspicions were true. Then a week later, the girl confessed her feelings for me and she asked me how did I feel about her.
Instead of giving her a direct answer, my sick and twisted adolescent mind decided to give her a riddle to solve. When she solved the riddle, she would get her answer; however, the riddle was ridiculously long and tedious. I forgot what the riddle was set up and I don't remember how and why I came up with it, but if she wanted the answer to her question, she would have to go through it. After a couple of days, I had an epiphany-why should I allow her to solve this ridiculous riddle when I didn't have any feelings for her. It was really sick of me to do this.
So the very next day, I pulled her to the side and profusely and sincerely apologized for not giving her a direct answer to her question and allowing her to solve my ridiculous riddle. Then I told her that I didn't have any feelings for her. She forgave me and we became better friends after that-until she moved to Arkansas.
That's the only time I INTENTIONALLY led someone on. There are other times where someone liked me, and not knowing how they felt, continued to be friendly towards them; thus, them assuming that I liked them.
That was the guy I was with at that time in high school. We did a stage drama he did that character Pinocchio since then he called as PINOKIO He did the same thing as OP explained. Some times he calls me, but not constant contact as we far way he lives in LA I am in EU that is Pinokio. But I hear that he got a big belly now.
Absolutely not, I would never do that. I've never understood people that play games, such a waste of time and so childish. I've had a couple women that played hard to get and I had no part of that.
Someone would have to be pretty evil to be that manipulative. What would someone gain from doing that? I guess some folks take satisfaction in making others look like fools and feel like crap.
I haven't, and it's something I would want to avoid. If I liked someone, and they didn't like me, I would rather they come out and reject me than lead me on, and laugh at me with their friends, and/or behind my back.
I am not perfect by any means, but some things I wouldn't do, stringing along, cheating, drinking. Bigger stuff like that.
So, if I didn't like a guy, romantically, I would try to let him know it, rather than flirt and act like I do, then he wonders what's up, only for me to tell him "I was just joking."
There have been a couple of cases where girls led me on to play with me as a joke with other girls, kind of like you see in those high school movies. Very intentional. But that was a long time ago when I was a kid and didn't happen that often.
As an adult, women have definitely led me on, though not of the intentional malicious variety.
Women like attention from guys. Other times they like to be validated, that a guy is attracted to them. Unfortunately, they draw it from guys they have no interest in.
I would get into details, but it's all been shared before. But, yes it happens.
