I like the thrill of the chase

[Olddaddy]

What does that mean to you ?

[reader]

Some find uncertainty of the outcome arousing on its own merits.

Or to put it in another context, it's the promise of sex.

Many athletes are driven by same motivation.

Chasing someone is a thrill… one that you probably don't get to revel in when you're in a secure relationship. Scientifically, having a crush and falling for someone releases feel-good hormones like dopamine and adrenaline. Part of the chase is a chase for those brain chemicals, to feel those euphoric feelings again.

for me is getting there as opposite of being there already. Or running after that 20 $ bill sudden wind blew away from my hands

Ahhh ....but is it always  the end  "goal" of the person initiating the "thrill of the chase" 

It could be argued the "chase" is the actual orgasm

His orgasm or your orgasm?

I've always been too shy to chase. On my first visit nearly thirty years ago, I required my object of desire to make the first, second and third move.  And to be blunt, I don't think I've changed. I envy  those who are braver than me and more resilient when it comes to set-backs.

Too bad you didn't know @vinapu back then, you could've done one of his boot camps and he would've marched that shyness right out of you 😉
