It is both painful and demeaning for a woman when she finds out that the man, who once was so vigorously pursuing her, is now backing down just as intensely just as she has begun to warm to him. She read on if he is missing and wants to be aware of such behavior.
It’s a kind of self-exam for men.
Men always want to know how desirable they are to women. They may pursue a woman without really having any interest in her, as they just want to see how the woman will react to her proposals. Once they find that the woman responds positively to her advances, they achieve her goal and walk away.
The “hunter’s instinct” is alive and well
If a man meets a woman who he finds above average and hard to come by, then the hunter’s instinct will kick in just for the thrill of the chase and to satiate his own ego. He begins to lose interest in the woman when she begins to show interest in him because he wasn’t pursuing her with the intention of building a relationship with her in the first place.
The thrill is gone, he will be too
He has pursued the woman with all the intensity of which he is capable and has managed to have her by his side. True, he might have found her attractive when she started, but that was when she was out of her league. She finds the fun and thrill of the chase more exciting than the woman, so she begins to walk away from her.
He’s the no-strings-attached type.
Many men, without knowing if they themselves, are people without commitment. So even if they pursue a woman for the purpose of a relationship, once the woman starts reciprocating; their essential fear of having to compromise comes to the fore and they begin to beat a headlong retreat.
His love for freedom surpasses that of the woman.
Men are rigorous when it comes to letting go of their freedom. They are simply horrified at the thought of giving up a carefree life and single status. This is simply because it allows them to keep their options open. So, they actually see it as a threat when the woman they’ve been chasing starts to warm to them.
Reality has turned out to be different from imagination.
He just had a pretty image and an imagination of what she would be like when he started chasing her. And if he discovers that the woman is not what he had imagined in her mind, he begins to walk away from her.
What was once great has now become ordinary fare
There’s really no one to blame here. The woman was an enigma and a mystery to be solved when the chase began. But now that it has happened and with the woman now by her side, life has returned to its usual monotony, her interest will begin to wane.
