Playing Hard to Get?

Common ploy: Playing hard to get.
Yet when does playing hard to get and simply uninterested differ?
Ok, there is this guy who apparently thinks I'm beautiful and likes to tell me a lot. With special emphasis on the eyes. As a woman you hope and wish for someone to notice you and give attention to what you believe to be your best assets (The Beautiful eyes) yet why do I feel embarrassed by this remark also the cuteness remark?
Why can't I just be grateful for what I get rather than belittle the emphasis they put on things?
Furthermore, does age have a factor in relationships, since a younger man is showing interest and I believe that it is kind of infuriating since he is unbelievably over-the-top and persistent while this makes me believe him to have no character other than a people-pleaser trait. Which to me is insufficient since I would like to have a sense of humour and occasional compliments not constant, otherwise they are not believable since they could be used as a throw-away comment.
Yet, I have been blessed to have been brought up with regular compliments such as the nickname, gorgeous. Even though from my dad who says that to every member of the family, even my close male cousin which I found out recently.
Anyway, to conclude. I believe that people need to define Playing Hard To Get as to not get confused with not being at all interested.
Also, I believe that I can never be pleased.
Especially since the guy who called me cute has paid me less attention and I am slightly annoyed.

Un-pleasable.
