A woman who enjoys pushing a man away only to tease him into chasing her again and again has issues. I would think she might have other games in mind as well. Not good....not good at all...

You heard it guys. Spoken from another woman. Those women whom Julliana is speaking of, would never really admit this if they did have these issues. Just like a man who lies would not come out and tell you he is a liar...Bring all relationships to the Lord. And be open and honest with your reasoning for the relationship. For one, the Lord knows the truth. And if your not being open and honest, your only lying to yourself. That person too, but then thats when your true motive comes out and if that person is wise, you blow it anyway.

If a woman tells me she isn't interested or shows me any signs that she isn't, my pursuit will most likely end there. Love should not have to be fought for or won, it should be freely given. I don't think I should have to struggle to gain a woman's attention or interest either. If she's not interested, I'm not interested. I don't consider this giving up, it is simply moving on.

I agree. There are times when a woman may want to be pursued for a season (she may doubt your motives initially), but not time and time again so that it becomes a hurtful game. That's not love. A good woman will try to spare a man's feelings in this regard.


On the other hand, be sure not to mistake her wanting to be kind for encouragement to pursue her. That will only annoy her and can be very difficult for her when she wants to remember you kindly, not bitterly.


A person is either attracted to/interested in you or they are not. Love is not a thing that can be manufactured or coerced.

Yeah, this is where I've made mistakes in the past with someone. I was too nice to them, and well they didn't take my no as a no, but as a maybe. I think I need to remember that some guys you need to use a cast iron skillet with to get the point across.

Oh wait, maybe that's the answer to the question: if she's pulling out her cast iron skillet to tell you know, take that as a NO.

I prefer a good non-stick pan--if you're trying to make a fast getaway (as I always am), it'll only slow you down if the victim, er, admirer's face gets stuck to the skillet and you have to take a few extra minutes to pry it off... and then run. :D

well there's that intimate love to where you see the other personas a potential spouse. that comes with the attraction for the other individual. let's not get it twisted, love is not necessary a physical emotional it is however an action. that is the problem today with worldly minded individuals. as we become more like Christ or should I say spiritually minded, I hope to God that we become more where of the difference. building in relationshipsis definitely a key factor and growing in the body of Christ but not all relationships are meant to be intimate as husband and wife.

What is the point of dating someone you couldn't see as a potential spouse? I don't think I could date someone knowing that I could never see myself with them.
