Yes, she wants to be pursued
Some men might call it hard to get, but for women, it’s just part of the courtship dance. Romance author Bridget Thompson-Dunkley shares five reasons why women love when they are pursued relentlessly.
1. She feels empowered
Men are not the only ones who love to be in control. Women do too! When a woman is being pursued by a man, it makes her feel as if she has the upper hand; as if she is the one who is calling the shots. She is the deciding factor in this whole thing. In her mind, how fast the relationship progresses depends on her and what she says.
2. She feels special when you do it
Out of all the women you could be calling and spending time trying to get a date with, you’re chasing her. Women love it when they are made to feel like queens and princesses.
3. It’s the way things should be
Arguably, men being the hunters and women being the prey is how things should be. It’s nature. It’s imprinted in our DNA. This never-ending cat and mouse game is the first step in the courtship dance.
4. Every woman wants to feel desired
What’s the sense of putting on your clothes and perfume and having no one to compliment you? Every woman wants to hear how sexy she is; she wants the boost of confidence! She loves it when she can walk into a room and make a man’s head turn. For her it’s a sign that she’s still got it!
5. It’s a good way to eliminate all the men who don’t stand a chance
Playing hard to get is a strategy some women employ to ensure that only the most worthy candidate is chosen as her man. A man who gives up too easily after being told no is not someone she wants. It’s the man who will never take no for an answer who she wants by her side. For her, fickle men will not do.
