When it comes to the game of love, some people have mastered the art of playing hard to get. They're enigmatic flirts who enjoy leading potential lovers on a chase. They love to hand out mixed signals and watch as people try to parse them out, because they want a partner who's going to put the work in to have them.
To find out who might court you from a distance at first, you can look to their zodiac sign, as some signs find more pleasure in playing hard to get than others.
Geminis are the social masters of the zodiac. They enjoy going to an event and chatting up as many people as they can, moving quickly and swiftly from one conversation to the next, never hanging around long enough for any solid connection to be made. At least, not one that they can follow up on.
They're hard to pin down, embodying their air sign qualities by being as swift and malleable as the breeze. For Geminis, it's less about playing hard to get and more about enjoying the variety. To catch one, you'll have to chase them.
But there are ways that you can catch a Gemini's interest in return, make them more likely to stick around, and that's to engage in clever, smart conversation with them. They'll move from person to person quickly because they want to be stimulated, they always want something new.
If you can provide that on your own, they'll want to stick around and hear what you say next. Beneath their talkative surface is someone who desires deeper meaning and purpose, so don't be afraid to open up more philosophical topics with them.
Libras, though having made it on this list of signs that play hard to get, are actually quite the flirt. They find a certain rush in playing that game with people, with no real thought about whether or not they want to pursue someone long-term. This means they have a lot of people hooked on them with no intention of following through, thus seeming very, very hard to get.
As magnetic as they are, this behavior can lead to heartbreak on both ends, as those they lead on may one day discover the Libra has up and vanished from their life, while the Libra themselves may lose someone they're genuinely interested in due to old habits.
For Libras, the talking stage is an absolute delight, a time to bask in carefree fun without any heavy commitments. Chasing a Libra can be a bit of a gamble sometimes, and there's a chance it could leave you hurt, but if you repeatedly make your interest abundantly clear, they may finally realize they want to lay down some roots and start something steady.
This doesn't mean pester them if they've clearly shown their disinterest, though. Chase them, sure, but only if they haven't expressed their feelings or have proven that they've taken a liking to you.
Sagittarius radiates playful and flirty vibes effortlessly. They don't even have to try; it just comes naturally to them! But, hold on tight, because this lively charm can make them seem a tad fickle and unserious, similar to Libra but in a more innocent, spirited
If you're falling for a Sagittarius, don't expect any signals from their end about where you should take things. They can sometimes get a little hot and cold with their behavior, making it hard to figure out where you stand. One moment they're all in for a playful romp, and the next, they might seem distant, creating a deep divide in an instant.
Figuring out a relationship with a Sagittarius can be like exploring uncharted oceans. They take their time to commit, savoring the freedom and adventure that comes with the uncertainty and single life. If you're willing to help them navigate those waters, then they could very well come around to your directions.
However, if you're seeking serious talks and deeper connections right off the bat, be prepared for some evasive maneuvers. When the conversation gets too heavy too soon, they aren't afraid to bolt. That being said, they thrive on attention, so if you're captivated by their magnetic aura, keep reaching out. Who knows where your journey may lead?
Aquarius loves to say that they're open to love, that they're currently dating, that they're craving romance, but that immediately becomes very different in practice. They're far more likely to be dodging that subject while feigning attempts so they don't actually have to try.
Even if they go on some wonderful dates or meet people they really like, there's still no guarantee that they'll pursue it, as they tend to hate both decision-making and commitment. They don't want to define anything too heavily, so they don't define it at all!
To land a relationship with an Aquarius, you'll have to give them both time and space. Don't push the idea of a relationship too heavily at first, but also don't be afraid to invite them on 'outings.' Maximize the time you spend together without it being inherently romantic in nature.
They can be a little unpredictable, and even more elusive, but so long as you remain in their orbit and respect the time they need to grow comfortable with you, you can find something amazing with them.
Pisces is a lover of attention, which might make you think that they'd be a rather easy romantic partner to pursue, but that's not quite the case. While they're often wanting for a relationship when they're single, they're also not worried about that process taking time. They want to make sure they've found someone worth staying with.
In the early stages of dating or other courtship, you might feel like the Pisces is testing you, and that's because they are. They'll shower you with affection and then playfully pull back, just to see how you react. It's their way of figuring out if you're genuinely interested in taking things to the next level.
If you're eager to swim into deeper waters with them, don't be shy to express your true feelings. They'll be genuinely touched by your sincerity and dedication, their walls tumbling down ever faster for it.
Pisces also have great emotional depth, so in order to really hook them in early, don't be afraid to open up on some deep topics. So long as you're not actively prying or revealing anything you may be uncomfortable with, they'll enjoy this level of connection and feel themselves growing ever closer to you.
Remember, when it comes to matters of the heart, the stars sometimes have strange futures set out for us. Embrace that excitement and uncertainty as you navigate your romantic path. Whether you're the pursuer or the pursued, let the zodiac's wisdom guide you through the twists and turns of love's connections.
If you find yourself really, truly interested in someone, don't let them playing at a distance scare you off. They're worth working for, and putting effort into this initial chase will make the future relationship you two build feel all the more satisfying.
In any relationship, always take stock of your feelings and ask yourself: does this person make you love yourself more? Do you want to grow old with them?
Love is more than just kisses and butterflies, it's much more than that. If you want to know more on what your birth chart reveals about how you love and what you need out of a partner, check out this personalized report based on date of birth.
