| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 6:18:17 AM | Sorry girl.....but your statment's got me riled
wow, you've posted your opinion WAY too many times... stop repeating yourself. And just because people have me on their favourites lists, doesn't mean I want to be chased.
Aaaaaaaand... in case you forgot, I also wrote in my post that NOBODY should chase anybody. What I meant by that was this: Why are people chasing? Just be honest and let's stop playing games. I don't chase and I don't play games to make men chase me either. If I'm interested, believe me, they know it.
Perhaps you feel like you're chasing women because you're going after women that are way out of your league?? If that's the case, then OF COURSE you're going to chase them, because they're avoiding you.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents - not really too concerned what you think because you're too old for me anyway. Funny how I don't have any bitter discussions or arguments like this with men in their 30's...
Can't we all just get along? | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 7:22:14 AM | | Chasing? Ack, I'd get tired and I have a slightly bad left knee. If i'm into someone I want her to feel the same way...up front and honest. Why would anyone want women to play games? I think people just have trouble being honest about how the feel and it leaves to much confusion in the beginning. You'll know up front if I'm interested or not and hopefully its a 2-way street. Any girl that starts playing hard-to-get is just going to lose me early on. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 7:48:43 AM | We're talking tag, right?! Yep, you're it. Sometimes you chase; sometimes someone chases you--it's all good.
That's right--subtext message--it's all a game....so, just play, have some fun and stop being so serious. Otherwise, you end up conflicted and unhappy and complaining. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 8:55:03 AM | No, I don't particularly like it, but it happens anyway. 
but otherwise, I feel like I'm playing Russian-Roulette with a loaded gun - with ALL the barrels loaded! laff laff laff | |

I guess the trick is to hook up with someone who is into you as much as you are into him.
Arri, now that would be a trick wouldn't it? | |

Well, they're mostly all variations of he's too shy or intimidated. | |

MEN this is about power! We need to take control of this situation. We need to be able to make or break their day for a change. But it will only work if we all work together in lockstep. Stop asking women out. If only a few men do this, then it doesn't work, all men have to do this.
According to scientists men will die out in 100k years, so then they will only have plastic penises to use. What we need to do is start the REVOLUTION NOW! REVOLUTION! REVOLUTION! They have their dildos to wait us out, but now we have plastic pussies avalible as well, so I say buy some and hold out! Eventually they will either start asking us out and paying for our dinner or not, but we need to have a man's movement! AND I SAY NOW iS THE TIME! REVOLUTION!
Lol, thanks for the laugh!  | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 9:18:34 PM | | Snowman...if a guy is feeling intimidated, it's probably because the girl is out of his league and he knows it...and some people, guys and girls alike are shy, but if you WANT something bad enough, you'll overcome just about anything to get it. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/9/2006 9:24:06 PM | Men that need to be chased generally also need mommies to pick up after them. Stroking their ego is one thing, chasing..........naaaaaaaaaah. I would pass. :-) | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 7:29:18 AM | ^^^ Are you girls saying that you would not take an active role in your own romantic futures?
Courting and the progress and growth of any relationship involves give and take by both parties. Besides, mutual chasing is fun  | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 7:48:49 AM | well I have to say....with mutual chasing make sure your not wearing socks if there is tile anywhere. Nothing worse then a slide and a fall in the kitchen when your running from someone you just spray'd water on. When the getaway goes wrong.....shes gunna get you.  | |

You sure didn't get that impression from my first posts. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 3:15:51 PM | I agree with you Demi,
It's like they don't appreciate you in the end. It was just too easy for them. Not enough challenge and they get bored and move on.
Or in the beginning, they may know you like them but they do nothing about it cause they think you're going to be around for them, forever. Until all of a sudden you're not there for them anymore and then they want you. That ticks me off. Cause it's like you weren't good enough for them to begin with...you're just second fiddle. I hate feeling like I'm second fiddle. Guess that is why I like a guy to show his interest in me first. At least I know he's interested enough. This dating thing sucks!! | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 3:37:36 PM | SmileyinKamloops, it's so hard. I don't want to think it, but we have no control over men. I can't will a man to me. He must want me first and last. I can chase, flirt, bend over backwards and do somersaults. It could work for a short time, but maybe because he has nothing better to do or he's mean and wants to see how high I'll jump or it's interim companionship/sex.
True, men have done this for women, I am sure and have gone unappreciated. But women don't get as far as men would with the same techniques. Again, you can bring a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it. Men can not only bring the horse to water, but can also make him drink it.
It's unfair, so I'll just go back to my fantasy world where I do have the power.
I want the guys out there who've been pursued by their women and managed to wind up in a long-term (or some term) real relationship, to speak up and say, it worked on them. Few posts will come up I'm sure.
I also hate this dating thing SmileyinKamloops and can't wait till a man "falls"for me, because it's the only chance I have. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 3:41:36 PM | | You know, i see all the points here, but i see alot of ladys complaining that when they make the effort, they get shot down...well being a guy and making the effort to chase, more often than not results in the same thing..i think it has to be an equal effort, yes someone has to start it..i guess it depends on the people involved..i admire a girl that will chase me, number 1 it shows she does like me, it DOESNT mean that im low on myself in someway..to me it shows she knows what she wants...i am more old fashion where i normally do chase so it doesnt bother me when im chased, its refreshing.. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 3:52:31 PM | My Idea of mutual chasing is playing leapfrog ... naked
The point I was trying to make didn't come out right.
There isn't a single male that is not looking for sex. That's the hook and fear of commitment is not a myth. We are very scared of ending up with the wrong woman.
When a woman chases too hard, that scares us and we run (Okay, some of us run before I get flamed for generalization) ... so .. don't chase. Show interest, let him know you find him great in bed and a wonderful human being, but aside from that, you only need to be patient and give him time to come around. We are simple creatures that really prefer to farm instead of hunt. Be a good friend and a great lover ... that's about it and leave the "I want more" conversation out of it. | |

| Men who like you to chase them Posted: 5/10/2006 4:15:37 PM | arri...pursuing is one thing....chasing an entirely different ball game. I would not expect anyone to chase me either. Chasing has a negative connotation to me and implies a game. I think I am past that.  | |
