Men and the question of the chase?
Now I understand that men respect a woman that they have to work for (or chase), but I'm a little confused on the time limits of it. I understand that a man must work for your body or any sexual experience, so I'm not taking about sex. But how long do you keep the chase going? Are you constantly turning him down for dates? Are you missing calls from him on purpose? Should u try and act unexcited about seeing him? Should you ignore IM's, emails, and text messages sometimes? Like what are the limits for "chasing"? When is it ok to just enjoy the fact that he makes you smile??
I'm a Scorpio, please list your sign as well.
Women want to be like and wanted but we must also be respected, I'm asking how can u balance being like and respected without running him off???

Don't play games, just be yourself. If by being yourself, you cant land the guy, then he isn't for you. The man who wants you, will want you for you, not something someone has written about, in their opinion, in a book. I'm an Aries female, and I hate when I find someone, who seems to be perfect, to only find out they lied the whole time about themselves. I will walk away that fast too.

I don't believe you are Black. I think you're full of crap. Anyway, I don't see many Black men chase White women. I see as pretty even. I think White women chase Black men as much as Black men chase them. I don't know where you are either but I also see plenty of Black men with Asians and Latinas. Very rarely are the women fat. They do tend to be average looking though.

I know a lot about the chasing. It is purely psychological. Humans want what they cannot have and the grass is always greener on the other side.
At the beginning of the attraction, usually women make the first move through body language. Men aren't really choosy with their mates and when women give them the eye, checking them out or smiling at them, the brain chemicals of men tell them that they should pursue the woman. Men are able to subconsciously pick up the body language of women that indicate sexual availability. Body language of sexual availability is what makes men want to pursue a woman.
After the men had made his first move and you have to let him know that you are interested through going out with him on the first date and such. At the beginning, you have to let him know (not literally, through actions) that he has a chance with you and that he can be your boyfriend. The beginning is crucial.
At the beginning, guys will try to impress you by giving you flowers, chocolates, paying for your dinner and such. This is called the honeymoon stage. Once the guy realized that he's won you over, he wouldn't do the romantic stuff anymore that most women complain about after the relationship is settled.
In order for a guy to always pursue the girl and do romantic stuff, you have to make him chase you. You have to always show him and act like other men want you. You have to act as if he is going to lose you any moment. This way, he will be up on his toes always wanting to impress you. Dating is purely psychological. We always want what we cannot have and what others want.
If you want your man to always do romantic stuff, you have to always blow him hot and cold in the relationship. Be overly nice one day and the next, withdraw. His emotions will be confused and then of course confused emotions means he will fall harder for you. This works for women too. That's why it is known that women like bad boys. Bad boys are hard to tame and women can never fully have them.
You can never let the men know how he's won you over already. You have to keep him guessing. Go out with your friends from time to time dressed really sexy and this will make him wonder whether other men will hit on you. Jealousy is a good thing because this will make him fall harder for you.

How long should the chase be ? If I have to chase forever. I will cut the chase and look elsewhere. I mean. I can carry a few extra pair of sneakers. I don't mind but if it means going thru 3 pairs of running shoes, I won't chase too long. You decide on the limit. If its a marathon of 100 miles. Count me out.

I wouldn't ignore someone. That could come across as playing games, being disinterested, or even insecure. It should happen naturally really. I remember a sitcom with a funny line in it: 'Oh no, I just hard-to-getted myself out of a date'! Watch you don't do that - lol!

You mean playing hard to get?
Someday you'll lose him and not like it.
Maybe try to be more straight-forward with him.I think he has every right to know where he's standing on,whether he should waste his time or find another target.If you like the thrill of waiting then just slow down.No need to rush things I believe.

Haha, just do what ever makes you feel comfortable.
Not *all* men want to chase a girl. Only some.
If you want to go out with him, do it.
You shouldn't act uninterested, or act like anything. Just be yourself.

'Chasing' is such horsesh*t. Why can't you just get together. F*ck.
And people wonder why their hearts are broken and end up completely antagonizing the opposite sex.
If what Baby Aries said is true then that's so incredibly disgusting...
People are so strange.

This is a myth, and most men do not like girls like that at all (although it may appear to work to your advantage to be manipulative).
