Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart toured Italy with his father Leopold three times between 1769 and 1773. The first, an extended tour of 15 months, was financed by performances for the nobility and by public concerts, and took in the most important Italian cities. The second and third journeys were to Milan, for Wolfgang to complete operas that had been commissioned there on the first visit. From the perspective of Wolfgang’s musical development the journeys were a considerable success, and his talents were recognised by honours which included a papal knighthood and memberships in leading philharmonic societies. Each of Wolfgang’s operas written for Milan’s celebrated Teatro Regio Ducal was a critical and popular triumph. In the course of the three visits he met many of Italy’s leading musicians, including the renowned theorist Giovanni Battista Martini, under whom he studied in Bologna. Leopold also hoped that Wolfgang, and possibly he himself, would obtain a prestigious appointment at one of the Italian Habsburg courts. This objective became more important as Leopold’s advancement in Salzburg became less likely; but his persistent efforts to secure employment displeased the imperial court, which precluded any chance of success. The journeys thus ended not with a triumphant return, but on a note of disappointment and frustration. (more…)

The cryptic mantis (Sibylla pretiosa) is a mantid native to southern Africa. Its common name comes from its ability to grow asymmetrically to match the vegetation of its environment. They have unusual leaf-like projections on the joint of their four walking legs and leaf-like wings, generally the only green portion of the insect’s otherwise brown and mottled exoskeleton. Adult females grow to 5–6 cm (2.0–2.4 in) in length while the males are generally about 1 cm smaller. Photo: Luc Viatour |

Although it might seem silly for someone to pretend that they’re a little less into you than they really are, this type of restraint is one of the ways by which some people gauge the extent of each other’s interest when dating. In addition, if you don’t play hard to get, you might come off as needy, calculating, or worst of all, desperate. Then again, if you play too hard to get, you’ll seem standoffish and cold, even a snob.
Follow these steps to find a good balance when playing hard to get, and remember, dating is not an exact science; it’s more of a game, with lots of guesswork, self-confidence, and risk-taking involved.
Avoid being or appearing to be needy. Being desperate or clingy is the polar opposite of playing hard to get. Develop the patience to let things develop at a pace based on someone else’s interest rather than on yours. Don’t let the fact that all your friends seem to be already dating or married; instead, pace yourself and say “so what” to yourself – it just isn’t your time yet and there is no deadline on pairing up with another person.
Don’t make yourself too easily accessible. If he or she calls you, don’t answer all the time, and wait a day or two before calling back. A good rule of thumb is to wait about twice as long as they do before calling back.
Be a free spirit. Whenever someone gets clingy, pull away. Shy away from firm answers or commitments. Try to leave as many options open for yourself as possible, for as long as possible. Expect anyone you date to follow the steps in How to Tame a Free Spirit. It’s also helpful if you know how to spot the signs of a clingy person, including:
