Playing hard to get is not a long-term solution to attracting quality men. Plus, it's too tiring!
Do you think that playing hard to get will create romantic tension with a new man and help you to ultimately hook him?
Well, it probably will work-- with most men and for a short while. The problem is that it won't work in the long-term and with mature men who know that quality women are REAL people.
We all make dating blunders in our 20s, but as we get older, we (hopefully) learn some lessons.
Between high school sweethearts and the dating challenges of your late twenties, a lot changes. Those young adult years are a crash course on men for most women. Here are the lessons most of us learn about about men in our twenties.
Breaking down the male struggle to be your 'perfect mate.'
I realize the dangerousness of my actions. I’m betraying my sex by talking about how hard men have it. It almost seems like a crime against nature. I’m willing to embrace the fallout (in a public women’s forum, no less), for the sake of the greater good. We’re at the height of a relationship revolution and if you decide to be one of the proactive few that apply this information, your boyfriend or husband will pay you back in kind. I’m here to say, men are getting a raw deal.
Still having a hard time getting over a past relationship? Your perspective may be holding you back.
If you’re still pinning for a man who has long since moved on with his life and a new love, it may be what you believe about a previous relationship that’s keeping you stuck.

Building a strong relationship involves accepting differences.
Marriage is the union of two different people with vastly divergent personalities, beliefs, background and culture. So how do two truly become one?

One woman reveals the secret to understanding men and guess what? It's no secret.
If it seems like the man in your life is a total mystery, look again. Melinda Clayton reveals that the secret to talking to men is no secret. If you want to understand him, listen, be honest and don't play silly mind games: "In order to communicate effectively, you must first listen to what is being said. Although this sounds simple, it often isn't. Instead of really listening, what we often do is listen just enough to formulate our response. In other words, instead of listening, we're gearing up for battle, looking for the weakness, and planning our strategy. If you want to communicate effectively with a man, listen to what he says, and hear what he means."
