It turns out there may be something to “playing hard to get.” A study published in Psychological Science , a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, finds that a woman is more attracted to a man when she is uncertain about how much he likes her.
Special Valentine's day articles today. Here is an advice to all men: shut-up!
oh and I thought you were going to say that women like Cads
There's a lot of stating-the-bleedin'-obvious in the news today, isn't there?
Yes. No. Maybe?
haha, it's a well researched paper funded by tax payers!
Feelings schmeeelings!
I am attracted to men with nice backs and nice forearms!
hairy back and forearms?
Forearms do it for me too ... preferably with lovely big, manly yet soft, hands at the end of them!
I've got a baby's forearm needing some attention
nah it doesn't work with me I get bored easily
Homunculus fan?!
for me they dont have to be soft...
in fact.. i prefer men that aren't soft at all
yes, Dougal, they have to be intelligent too!
Hair, i am not fussed. He does need a little, else he might just look like some of my girlfriends and i do want to know that he is a man!
oh, and he has to be able to run, swim and ride faster than me
is that too much to ask ?
I say it's all in the nose. It's his understated sexual odor oozing from every pore that discreetly creeps its way through my nose and into my brain. One whiff and ping! attraction.
Cripes - maybe you are suffering from jungle fever!!!
All you need is to stand at the FINISH line of a triahtlon event and pick up according to timing, back and forearm shapes.
Forty-seven female undergraduates participated in the study - so the position is quite understandable, I had all kinds of funny ideas when I was that age as well.
A few years of those "unclear feelings" and it will seem a lot less attractive, I promise you. Because one will figure out that if a man is interested, you will know it. If you are not sure, he is not interested and instead of trying to change his mind, it's more efficient to go and find someone who actually likes you.
Very logical approach, however I'm fairly certain a majority of people do not follow logic when searching out a partner.
vvv my searching criteria vvvv
There are just too many nice guys out there who do make their feelings clear from the get-go so why waste time and space (space-time even) on those who don't!? They can go play hard to get with themselves! Next! ...
