[Do women like being ignored?]

No, women do not like being ignored. If you're interested, say so, and show that you're interested. A mature woman will do the same. Ignoring, hard to get and endless other games are teenage games.

Women do not like being ignored. Ever. lol. If they do then they're just playing stupid head games and you don't need to be involved in that anyway!

If you're interested, say so, and show that you're interested.

That's generally the best way but in many cases, if you show interest and tell her, she will lose interest instantly or see you as 'weak' or 'boring' (i.e. predictable or not much different from others). The only time it doesn't matter is if she was already interested intrigued before you explicitly expressed to her of your interest.

The trick isn't to ignore women but to not fawn over the one you're interested in or show too much interest. You will learn that being eager to help or 'be nice' backfires if she hasn't already established interest in you (the guy) or if she isn't interested based on some specific criteria (your looks, your car, your sense of humour, your status or money situation).

I think any adult on here is a bit too old to play the "if i ignore her, she'll want me more" game.

It depends on whether or not I like the person. If it is someone whom I don't care for, then ignoring me is just fine and even better when they finally go away.

I don't like games, and hate wasted time. If a guy wants to play games just to see how I will react, then I move on. I'm not interested in acting like we are still in junior high.

And being ignored? Maybe its just me, but I feel like the guy has no interest or has lost interested. I will not chase a guy that isn't interested.

I love love love arrogant guys.. I wish I didn't but have ended several relationships in the past because my partner showed TOO much interest. I know that sounds stupid but I need my own space and for some reason I am extremely attracted to a guy that doesnt completely ignore me but somewhat withholds his true emotions and feelings.. must be the whole hard to get thing.. treat em mean.. keep em keen thing. I know what your friends are trying to say.

soooooo many of my girlfriends fall into the "treat 'em mean to keep 'em keen" category, they take outrageous amounts of bulls**t from dudes, and CHASE them after they're dumped/ignored what have you, it's painful and humiliating to watch!! I think because I'm a late bloomer and saw all these trainwrecks happen in front of my eyes that I utterly refuse to be toyed with LOL, a guy ignores me that's fine, he's allowed to not care for me at all, but if it's a ploy to make me come a runnin', yah that's not going to fly

For practical matters, being ignored can become quite irritating......but with the constant games brewing in the head of many women, 'practical' may not apply.......sooo.........women do not like being ignored and it warrants reason to discretely boil over inside.......but body language exposes true feelings.......that in itself is special.........now guys, wait for the phone to ring so u can get ur mulligan.............

OP, there's a fine line between a man's reserving his emotions toward an interested woman .. and a man who pays little to no attention at all.

I for one do not waste my time on a man who hasn't got the courtesy to appreciate my time, and I'm far more likely to be drawn to the man who lets me know in a low-key way that he's happy around me.
I'm put off by a man who is very intensely gung-ho for me if I'm not currently that way for him.

Think of it as a dance, and try not to step on your partner's toes. Watch. Their true feelings will show through their willingness to flow with you. Be willing to learn different steps from your own, and carefully observe who is naturally leading. If you don't like the dance, find another partner.

sure, i love being ignored...that's something that i've grown accustomed to lately. a person can ignore another for only so long until they realize that they need something or made a mistake by going after the wrong person.

go ahead, make my day..........ignore me. i'm a pretty patient woman that may or may not give you that chance if you turn to me.

It is an effective seduction technique most of the time, and it's better to error on the side of being less eager than too eager for obvious reasons. Some of the women here have said they hate it and they would never even talk to a guy again who had the audacity to brush them off, which makes me feel sorry for them.

You can choose to take a zero tolerance stance, although doing so means you will end up being hypervigilant and will falsely classify plenty of honest and perfectly innocent behavior as game playing, and ultimately find one of those few males who meet your criteria is with someone less defensive because of doing so. We aren't perfect, we can't always gauge your own level of interest to act accordingly, or we may be genuinely on the fence about you. That's really more about protecting your own feelings and ego than being an adult.

Women like a challenge period. If you call like clockwork everyday, are sweet as pie or too predictable we will run you down like a Mac truck. Play hard to get, be mysterious, make us miss/want you otherwise we won't.
