This truly is a woman’s “best-kept secret”!
No Matter What Men Say….
No matter what they tell you, men love it when you drive them crazy.
Men feel very much alive when they are crazy with passion and interest for a woman who rivets their attention.
The best way to make a man CHASE you is to do LESS, not more.
Does “hard to get” increase the intensity? You bet it does.
For example, many of us have an old flame who stays in our minds.
One reason he stays in your mind is because you don’t HAVE him.
He’s extremely HARD TO GET.
That affects how much you THINK about him and want him!
It feels intense! And falling in love is delicious when it’s… intense!
That’s exactly what happens when you’re harder to get.
You create intense desire in the man you want. (And even in men you don’t want!)
The Game of Love
Is love a bit of a game? You bet it is.
If you want a man to be CRAZY about you… then you need to get very, very good at the game of love!
You do that by following the secrets that have been handed down for generations!
From a reader
Mimi,
A few months back I told you about my relationship with a man who clearly told me that his
last girlfriend tried to be too serious and he bolted (“listen to his words!”).
Well, we just got married and I couldn’t be happier.
Even now, though, I still like to make him chase a little.
He keeps telling me how lucky he is.
We have a lot of FUN! Isn’t that what it’s all about?

What Men Think They Want (And What They Really Love)
We just love it when MEN say, “I don’t want a woman who plays games.”
We just smile and think, “Yeah, right. What men think they want and what they really want can be two different things!”
Men don’t always know what they really want – until they meet a woman who turns their world upside down.
Have you ever seen a man move heaven and earth to be with a woman?
He wouldn’t have to move heaven and earth if he didn’t have some obstacle in the way.
HINT: Men actually love moving mountains for a woman. There’s no greater feeling for a man than winning a woman who is tough to win… who is desired by others…
Of course, you’re getting the picture here!
No matter what men say, they love a challenge… of a woman who is hard to get.
And a man backs away from the woman who falls for him before he’s “earned” it.
Have You Been Too “Easy To Get”?
The opposite of Hard To Get is “easy.”
Easy means being too eager.
Easy means revolving your world around his.
Easy means getting too serious too soon.
Easy equals desperate. A hard-to-get woman is never desperate.
Not being hard to get means that you get to
Emotional First Base long before he does.
When he realizes that you are there before him – he will start backing away
from you – and break your heart.
Being Hard To Get means you are in control – and you’re a lot more likely to get the man you want and to have a better
relationship with him – that lasts.
“How true – how true! When I’m being mysterious and not pouring out my emotional needs, I have total control.
“I hate to say it, but the more I’m mysterious, the more he wants to be with me.”
— Lisa
The Old-Fashioned Ways Still Work
Hard to Get is a time-honored principle for a reason. It has worked for centuries!
The principles of being Hard To Get are all about valuing yourself!
Hard To Get teaches you how to have restraint – especially when you feel like getting clingy or falling apart!
Love is not for the faint of heart.
Make no mistake about it. Love is a “game” – the most wonderful “game” ever invented.
So play to win. Play hard…. to get!
Why am I telling you this? My name is Mimi Tanner. I’ve written many books on relationships.
I have literally spent a lifetime
studying the subject of MEN – and WOMEN – everything from flirting to attracting, chasing, being chased, falling in love, and why men and women fall in love.
I know what it takes to win a man’s heart, and my advice has worked for literally
thousands of women who write me every day to tell me about it!
From a reader
Mimi, I just wanted to tell you that because of you and your writings, the way I went about things,
I got the best husband in the world. I was doing things all wrong. I took your advice and it worked.
I still read all your emails.
Thanks,
D.
Hard To Get Is Controversial
We’ve heard all the objections. Over and over again. Here are just a few:
Some women say, “With a really great man, I shouldn’t need to play games.”
We say, “Great men love a challenge. When they’re married to you, they’ll cherish you all the more because you were hard to get.”
Some women say, “I don’t have the energy to work on how I come across to men.”
We say, “Most worthwhile things take energy and effort. The results are worth it.”
Some women say, “I just don’t like the whole idea of playing hard to get.”
We say, “Consider the alternative – being ‘easy’? It’s not a pretty picture.”
“But Mimi, What About ‘Manipulation’??”
Many people are against the idea of playing hard to get. They say it’s wrong; it’s manipulative; it’s trickery of the worst order.
First of all, that’s one of the many MYTHS about being hard to get.
Second, what those people are really afraid of is that playing hard to get will give you an “unfair advantage.”
It will. But there’s nothing “unfair” about it.
Anyone can use these truths. But very few do!
You can call it “playing games” or you can call it “the thrill of the chase”!
Whatever you call it, these “games” can mean the difference between being alone with your regrets – or living every day with the man you love.
Let the games begin! And when you play the game of love, be sure to play hard to get.
Be Hard To Get – or Easy To Forget
Picture this.
A man meets a woman. He says, “You’re a fine-looking woman. I’d like to go out with you and in about a year, we’ll get married.”
She says, “Great! Works for me.”
What’s wrong with this picture?
Would you watch a movie if this were the plot? Of course not!
Why not? Because it would be BORING!
You wouldn’t read a book like that, either. In fact, any book on love, whether it was published last week or 200 years ago – has more of a plot than that!
So why would you want YOUR LOVE LIFE to be boring – when you can create memories and have fun – and still be true to your highest self?
Being Hard To Get in the Right Way
Are you the kind of woman a man loses sleep over, worrying about whether he’ll win your heart?
That same man who never calls you back is quite capable of falling head over heels in love with a woman who makes him feel an
overwhelming desire to win her.
This happens even with guys who say they are “afraid of commitment.”
Somehow when a certain kind of woman comes along, these guys miraculously lose their fear of commitment because they are so busy
trying to get this woman into their lives – determined, in fact.
But what does it take to become that kind of woman in your man’s life?
Hard To Get is a private program which speaks to the hearts of thousands of women.
It’s that kind of program that women love to own
and generally don’t tell the entire world about it – but they devour the teachings privately and take its principles to heart.
From a reader
I am currently in a relationship with a very warm and loving man. He is nine years my junior.
I almost ruined the relationship due to my insecurities.
However, reading your articles and two books giving me insight into the makeup of men, I was able to turn it around.
Now we are extremely happy and doing well. I thank you for all your research, input and care you put to each and every article.
Sincerely,
A devoted reader
Being Hard To Get Makes Him Treasure You More
How do you know when you have won his heart completely?
When he wants to show you off to his friends.
When he can’t wait to bring you home to meet his parents.
When he calls you during the day to see how you’re doing.
When he does thoughtful things for you – just because.
When other men are around you at a party, he’s confident in you, but… keeping his eye on the situation!
Men Cherish What They Work Hard To Obtain
Being hard to get is about one of the most basic truths of human nature:
We love a feeling of accomplishment. We love to work for something valuable and finally obtain it.
We tend to scorn what is handed to us too easily. We take those things for granted.
We rarely appreciate things which come too easily. We value the things
which are elusive – harder to reach, harder to find, harder to get.
Human Nature Wins Out Every Time
Many people are suspicious and downright hostile about this truth of human nature.
They waste precious energy
fighting against it – even though the truth stares them in the face every day!
When people fight against human nature, they lose every time.
They may as well be fighting against the sun rising and setting, because their discomfort is not going to change the facts of life!
We humans thrive on desire. We value what we put our time, effort, and money into.
This theme of human nature has been well known throughout the ages of time.
When you can’t get something easily – it gets your attention. You want it more.
This can even be the make-or-break factor at certain crucial times.
But you have to know what you’re doing – otherwise, you’ll offend a guy, turn him off, or break his heart.
Make no mistake about it. Love is a game – the most wonderful “game” ever invented.
Play to win. Play hard…. to get!
From a reader
Hi Mimi,
I suppose the whole thing boils down to a very old principle: whatever you work for has more value (in your mind) than what you get for free.
If you have to court a woman for three months, when you finally sleep with her, it means much more to you than if you slept with her the first night (independently of the objective “quality” of the sex). Something difficult is more meaningful than something easy.
Applied to romance, when the high-maintenance woman makes the man jump through hoops, he’s associating her with something valuable, because he has to work so hard for her. Whereas as the non-demanding, “together,” low-maintenance woman: well, yeah, she’s attractive, but… so what? Why bother?
Hope I’m not overstating my case. 😉
Best,
Lucinda
Are You Pushing Him Away By Being Too Available?
A man can’t pursue you if you’re his too soon, or too easily!
Instead, take lots of time to get to know him… and enjoy the journey instead of focusing on the destination.
Even a minor difference toward being “harder to get” can make a major difference in how your man responds to you.
Hard to get does not mean impossible to get! I’ll show you how to enjoy “the chase” and how to be in control of your love life and your future.
Being hard to get means you’ll never have to settle for less than the happiness you really want.
Discover how the chase will be thrilling and memorable for both of you – with love, respect, fun, and excitement.
What People Are Saying
You go Mimi! I hope these women “get” what you are saying.
You are a potential life preserver for many, Mimi…..I hope they grab the HUGE BUOY OF INFORMATION you throw to them as they flail along in the sea of relationships…….you offer them the ways and means to preserve their precious life, sanity, dignity and INTEGRITY!!!!!!
Fondly,
S. G.

Finally, a positive out look and an ANSWER on what to ACTUALLY do instead of pages and pages of junk! I’m a huge fan of yours and will continue to support ANY of your work!

Perceived Value and the Scarcity Factor
One of the great lessons of love is known as the scarcity factor. Plain and simple: people tend to want what they cannot have!
When things are hard to obtain, they seem more valuable – to put it mildly.
What if someone told you that you could buy a 2-year-old Jaguar for $2,000. What would you think?
You’d think that there must be something wrong with it. (And you’d probably be right.)
When you think of luxury items or designer clothing, what is the number-one thing that sets them apart? Is it the workmanship? The quality?
Perhaps – but far more than that, it’s the PRICE. That is what gets your attention and makes it stand apart from all the others – it costs more, and it’s harder to obtain. Fewer people will be able to get it – and if you have it, it’s clear that you must have had something special in order to get it.
But things are only as valuable as someone thinks. And the more rare something is, the more people think it is worth.
I once searched high and low to find a special, out-of-print book. It was written in the 1950’s and few people remembered it. I was thrilled to finally find the book, and paid $150 over the internet in order to obtain this rare copy.
Only a few weeks later, the very same book was given to me by a public school librarian who was about to throw it out because no one had checked it out in at least fifteen years.
Obviously some people think that book is valuable – or the price would not have been so high – but for others, it was gathering dust and needed to be discarded.
It’s called “perceived value.”
How does this apply to relationships between men and women? It really starts on the inside. If you value yourself, it will show, and others will value you more, too.
If you value yourself, you will be focused on your own goals and activities – and less focused every waking minute on some guy. That automatically makes you more hard to get.
What’s the opposite of hard to get? It’s desperate. Desperation repels others, and is revealed in a thousand subtle ways – all of which you need to avoid like the plague.
I get a lot of email from women who are spending enormous amounts of time thinking about a guy in their life, but who are not spending enormous amounts of time adding value to their own lives by learning and growing. That’s the first step to becoming hard to get.
It’s not about being self-absorbed or selfish – it’s really about self-respect. The greatest gift you have is YOU. What you do with this gift will affect not only you, but literally thousands of people.
Whether you believe it or not, you already have an image. People know you and are aware of you – your presence is known. Your image is out there. You are somebody already.
Is that somebody the kind of person who is sought after?
Start today to see yourself as the kind of woman who makes men lose sleep thinking about you!
Yes, love is a game. Let the games begin! And when you play the game of love, be sure to play hard to get!
I’ll show you how to enjoy “the chase” and how to be in control of your love life and your future.
When these principles become a part of you, you’ll be free to take your love life as far as you want it to go!
I can’t wait for you to discover Hard To Get – a woman’s best-kept secret!
