Last night’s episode of “Gossip Girl” was awesomely irritating. After pursuing Blair for ages, Chuck finally got her exactly where he wanted her—about to give up some lovin’—but then turned the tables on her instead. It seems that Chuck wants to be chased, instead of the other way around. Say what? I’ve long been confused about whether men like women to be aloof or aggressive. Or aggressively aloof, if such a thing is possible. I’m not good at being either of those three things, which is why the prospect of gag, puke, blech, DATING again makes me wrinkle my nose. With that in mind, I decided to ask the men I trust so much I keep our relationships confined to IM, whether men like to be chased or do the chasing.

The coy technique worked for me. Actually it has worked everytime I have gotten laid, or started a relationship. The only time I was forward and blatantly interested, the guy bolted so quick it left me reeling… because I really put myself on the line for him.

I admit, I like a bit of a chase - but I also like being aware that a girl wants to be chased. I don’t want it to be ‘easy’ - but I don’t want it to be Sisyphean either.

Either or. I have no probem pursuing, I just need a little sign you are interested. Act like a cold fish, get thrown back in the sea. But on the flip side, a confident woman is probably the sexist thing you can find. Something about a woman that has no problem pursuing me is just a HUGE turn on.
