| Do women like being ignored?
Posted: 2/15/2007 12:23:28 PM | Okay, I know this sounds like a stupid question to ask but hear me out!
I have been talking to a number of friends of mine who always seem to have better luck than me when it comes to dating and relationships and all their advice seems to point in the same direction.
They claim that women are attracted to mystery and suspense and if they meet a guy who makes his feelings known that they lose interest since they offer no mystery or suspense. However women find guy who are uncertain of how he feels, they find this behaviour both sexy and mysterious until later in the relationship.
I am interested to know whether women prefer to be ignored by a guy rather have him show an interest?

Do Women like being ignored -
I dont like being ignored if you like me then I would like you to express it to me -
I know that I have a hard time expressing how I feel about someone sometimes - but that is only because I am afraid he does not feel the same way and I dont want to look like
a fool - And I love mystery and suspense - but in other areas of the relationship - not in
the area of him expressing his undying love for me - | |

I suppose it works if someone is extremely intrigued by someone already. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 12:36:45 PM | No, if someone ignores me and makes me feel as though they don't like me thats not gonna make me want them more, thats gonna make me move on and stop wasting my time on someone that:
A) really isn't interested or
B) is playing childish games. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 12:39:04 PM | I read something like this in a book once. For example: If you are interested in a girl at a table with friends, walk over and introduce yourself. But talk to the OTHER people instead. The author figured that she will feel left out, and she will come after you instead.
Personally, I don't think that would work too well. But I haven't tried it, nor will I. If a girl isn't interested in me without the games, then she isn't the one for me anyway. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 12:39:18 PM | | Personally I like knowing a guy is interested...now having said that, I highly highly suggest that if you being to feel more than just interest in a short period of time keep it to yourself. I've had guys tell me that they're falling in love with me after hanging out not even 1/2 dozen times, that's creepy! There's nothing wrong with having strong feelings for someone just after meeting them but that's something better left unsaid, I'm sure there are other ladies that'll agree with me! | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 1:10:38 PM | I think the point of that method is that they aren't SUPPOSED to know that's what you're doing.
And I don't think any women can answer that, if they don't know it's happening. And of course they would hate it if they KNEW it was happening.
It's supposed to encourage pursuit from her end. Not a concious thought of "Wow, I love it when he ignores me!" | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 1:21:38 PM | There's a difference between ignoring someone and pacing yourself and not coming on too strong. I think these things get confused and turned into the word "ignore" as a description. Obviously if you totally ignore someone from the beginning you won't get very far. That's an extreme way of putting it. Rather show interest and be laid back about it and let them participate in the exchange once they decide they are interested in return. It's a middle ground between declaring your love for a compete stranger and acting like they don't exist.
There's another thread titled similarly about ignoring men to get them to like you; it's the same extreme definition. You can't steamroll someone with your emotions and expect them to just go with it. You already know you're interested when you approach someone, and so you're a step ahead of them. Naturally they have to know you are interested, decide they are too and then make a move in return. A lot of it has to do with allowing the other person to like you as well, and a lot of people don't give the other person time to do that. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 1:43:56 PM | | If I felt I was being ignored I would think he was either rude or not interested, depending on the situation. That would not make me feel good and I would probably lose interest. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 1:49:21 PM | I LOVE it when a guy ignores me. It makes me feel so, uh wanted and loved..... And if he's ignoring me more than any other chick, I really feel special.
Ignoring someone you really like constitutes a game and adults don't play games. So there. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 2:00:55 PM | Adults do nothing BUT play games. LOL. Especially when they say they don't.
I agree with the earlier post about not coming on too strong. Mystery is a powerful thing. | |

Uhmmmm, this one doesn't. I'm all about say what you think or feel. I failed my mind-reading course. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 2:53:27 PM | I'm 42 I have no time for childish dating games. If you like me let me know. If you want to get to know me let me know. trust me, I will let you know if I'm into you or not.
I think actions speak louder than words and if a guy isn't giving me the attention I need to know he likes me, i'll probably move on very quickly | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 2:58:22 PM | Well a girl I sometimes meet for drinks definitely gets more interested whenever I don't come running. If she calls to meet and I go, she doesn't pay much attention to me.
If I blow her off, next thing you know she is blowing up my phone and wanting to show up wherever I am.
So yeah some girls respond to a little aloofness. I believe it only works on girls who have to be the center of attention. If there is a guy out there who could care less about giving her attention she will do anything to get it. Including jumping on you and wrapping her legs around you for a drunk hug.
I have found I prefer women who DON'T have to be the center of attention. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 3:31:33 PM | | If a guy ever ignored me or didn't give me the attention I deserve then bye bye!!! I give 110% I expect at least 100% back!! Why play games of cat and mouse - makes no sense at all!?!?!? | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 3:37:23 PM | | I can't stand being ignored, and I'm incredibly stubborn. I figure, if your ignoring me, I'll ignore you more. Once I take the hint, you better believe I won't be calling you. Show an interest, or I'm out. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 3:45:56 PM | op you are on to something my friend
There are girls that you have to pretend you don't want or might want. It makes them start to doubt their confidence in themselves. And no one likes an over confident woman. But it;s t
There are girls who want to know you like them early on because then they can focus all their energy on trying to lock you in because they don't think they can get anyone else.
The latter girls are lacking in self esteem hence the early "lockdown" strategy.
So to sum up, you shouldnt go for either of these girls, you should try to get the one who is even keel with herself and doesnt want an all out chase or to find the first man she wants.
This is the girl who you dont have to worry about ignoring or chasing. | |

Posted: 2/15/2007 4:34:08 PM | I can't stand being ignored....that is too high school for me. Ignoring me would turn me off totally. And, the only reason I would ignore a guy that I liked would be because he did something to really annoy me. | |
