Relationship Tips - Insider Information on Playing Hard to Get

Is playing hard to get the best way to attract a man's attention? Will this bring a man to you or turn him away? Do you know the few key things to remember? Would you like to be better at playing hard to get than the rest of the women out there? If you answered yes, read on.

You are not alone if you are a little confused about mastering the techniques of playing hard to get. But, once you know how, you will find that you have a very powerful means of grabbing any man's attention. The entire basis of playing hard to get is to pose a challenge to a guy. You seem slightly unattainable and most guys just cannot stand to stay away from the invitation to compete. It is built into the male psyche to be competitive, and one of the most satisfying victories is to win the heart of a woman who is being pursued by other men.

So, what are the secrets any woman should know? First of all, always maintain that slight air of aloofness. You must keep the guy feeling that he just cannot give up the effort. There is not a man in this world that will walk away from a challenge until he has achieved his goal, which, in this case, will be you. The key is to carry on with that mystery and intrigue. Make it obvious that you are interested by smiling or looking in his direction, but let him make the first move over to you.

Now that you've caught his attention and contact info has been traded, always, always let him make the first call. Keep in mind that he does not want to seem too eager, and he might hold off on calling you right away. That's fine; just hang in there and let him call first. Now is a good time to remember not to go overboard with playing hard to get. Timing is key and you won't want to give the impression that you are not interested by turning down his attempts to get together with you.

Keep your first date fun and enjoyable. Talk about easy subjects and show your interest in him by listening more than you talk. Guys love to see a woman who pays attention to them. Stay away from deep, dark stories of the past for two reasons; you want to keep the date upbeat and you want to hold back from letting him know all about you from the very start. Once again, it's the mystery that keeps him coming back for more. Definitely stay away from histories of past relationships and never, ever bring up a conversation about marriage. A first date is way too soon to be testing him on being together forever.

You must not forget your methods of playing hard to get now that you've had your first date. Keep him chasing you by being unavailable; make it a little difficult for him to get together with you. He will not give up the fight and you can let him learn a little more about you each time he gets to see you.
