I am a man. I hate the chase. So something is wrong with your post.

He's just proved my point

Not all men are the same. Can I ask why you think it's so degrading for a woman to chase a man?

In all of my instances of chasing men, it's never worked out. When I play it cool and let the guy be a man, the results have always been favorable and/or I've attracted whom I'm looking for.

It's up to the OP to decide how much she wants to invest in someone who isn't making a great impression.
I agree.

And I think there is a difference between going after what you want and what the OP seems to think of as chasing. I think a lot of men will go after what they want - i.e. go up to and talk to a woman they find attractive, ask a woman out that they are interested in, follow up by asking them out for a second date, etc. I don't think that most men want to keep pursuing a woman that doesn't answer texts and makes plans at the last minute - which is what the OP seems to think of as chasing. Personally, unless I felt an AMAZING connection with this guy in person, I'm not going to waste my time trying to get him to make plans.

Thanks for your comment. He likes to make plans at the last minute, not me. I find this very annoying. The only thing he has going for him is that he's tall and handsome. Other than that, naw...no connection. Which is why I haven't written him back.

My game is quite well, actually. Spotting naughty behavior early on and being on the defense.

I bet he's seeing other chicks, just like I'm seeing other dudes. Thanks for the comment.

Mod cut.

Just end it. If this is his best behavior, it can only go downhill.
