Women who play hard to get do it because society says you must not appear cheap to a man even if you love him and he’s crazy about you.
Women are told to say no, play with the prospective suitor’s feelings. Ignore his calls, walk past him on the road and pretend not to care even if they are dying to be in his arms.
All these actions are just the result of societal conditioning. Many women have lost good men on the altar of pleasing the society.
Women who do this want to appear good. They don’t want to be seen as cheap or desperate. That’s understandable but not to the point of wasting a man’s time for years.
I don’t understand women who entangle themselves with societal expectations. I mean, your life is yours. You have to live it.
But when will you live your life if you keep waiting for the almighty society to accept every decision you take concerning your life?
Why will you be playing hard to get with a man you love and who is crazy about you because society tells you to do shakara so you won’t appear cheap?
Continue playing hard to get until uncle who doesn’t give a damn about pleasing society moves on to a serious woman.
When that happens, you will start crying that he was snatched. Nobody snatched him because he’s not a handbag.
He left because he can’t be wasting his time with a woman who wants to please society. If a man loves you and you love him, date him, and marry him if possible.
Time waits for no one. Life is fickle. Live your life. Society doesn’t care about you. You need to do what’s best for you.
You are the one who knows what you want in a man and when you meet a man who possesses all the qualities you desire, don’t play hard to get just to please society. Go for him. That’s living your life.
