Sarah, listen up. Forget “playing” hard to get. BE hard to get. 
Your time is your most valuable asset—stop giving it away for free. A high-value person is busy building their own empire, not waiting by the phone. Focus on your goals, your fitness, your mission. Let your packed schedule be the reason you’re unavailable, not some silly game. He’ll either respect your grind and step up, or he’ll fall back. Protect your energy! Build your life and make him earn his spot.
