you seem to be very "in the know" when it comes to these sorts of things, so I thought I'd ask.
Do you belive that playing hard to get works?
You've seem to read up on it, so I was just wondering what your personal thought on it was.
Thank you.

While I might SEEM "in the know", I'm not actually that terrific at putting my knowledge and understanding into practice. But if I can use my mistakes to help others, so much the better.
To answer your question, while I believe that there is a certain atavistic thrill in chasing the unnatainable(which is destroyed if you appear too eager or too respond TOO readily), playing "hard to get" can be a little contrived, and no senisble person, man, woman, boy or girl, would put up with it for long. It's really just common sense-if you like someone, then don't ram your affection down their throat-on the other hand, don'trun away from them too hard, or they might get fed up. I've been no help at all, have I? That's because the real answer to your question is to GO WITH YOUR INSTINCTS. Go with your feelings and commonsense, and you should be ok.
Good luck! [ lucretia's advice column | Ask lucretia A Question ]
