LBP,
To answer your question, I think it would depend on the approach that you use in your pursuit after the rejection.
Sitting in a tree outside her window, creepy..... Showing up at a party or social gathering you know she'll be at, not so much.
Seems like the playing hard to get days are for the most part, in the past. Old school way of thinking was to lead the man who was interested in you on a merry chase, then let him catch you, before he gives up. Now, talk shows and magazines nowadays tell women to be aggressive and assertive and urging us to go after what we want many women do just that.
In my opinion it may go too far, since I hear stories all the time about young girls sending vagina selfies to guys they like via text message.
I'm thinking maybe the woman you asked out wasn't necessarily trying to play games but maybe just wanted to wait and see if you were seriously interested in her? Just a thought.
On some level women do want men to be mindreaders. (Many men don't pick up on subtle hints we drop) On another it seems like as soon as you think you have us figured out, we may change tactics.
Personally, playing hard to get didn't interest me, I've always found coyness tedious.
