Has anyone tried this and had better results with either.

I’m taking about situations when a girl gives mixed signals, pulls away, shows interest and then doesn’t. Takes ages to reply to messages, but then shows interest.

You know what I mean - when you just want to tell her to straighten up and decide what she wants.

I usually either withdraw attention and if they don’t reinitiate - fine, no loss.

But sometimes I can see that shit coming and I just can’t be asked to deal with it i.e. play the whole dance of withdrawing attention and raising their interest.

I don’t have a large enough sample to tell if being direct at that point is a better option. By that I mean saying something like “look, I like girls who are excited to spend time with me. I like having fun and not playing games” or something like that, obviously calibrated for the situation.

Basically, who has experience with this can you share what outcomes you got and conclusions you have made.
