If your feelings for him are as strong as his feelings for you, then a chase will never happen.

Do not mistake their physical attraction to you as a desire to enter a relationship with you. 

You have to nudge him to talk to you. Sometimes he drops out of your life. When that happens, you like his posts and upload attractive pictures of yourself to social media in the hopes he will pay attention to you again.

I still want you. I still have feelings for you. But I am not going to keep chasing after you.

You don’t get me yet
you get to chase me
and woo-me
and court me
I am not going to simply just lay down
like a prize.

Your person isn’t the person you’ve been chasing. It isn’t the one you have to convince to stay around. It isn’t the person that has turned your areas of black and white to grey.

People can sense that kind of desperation a mile away.

In loving the wrong people and giving the best parts of myself too soon it taught me to be smart. It taught me if I want people to treat me a certain way it first begins with how I treat myself.

I want to be chased with the intention of being kept.

Does playing hard to get actually work? How do men truly feel about women who ‘like the chase?’
