Describes someone who deliberately resists or stalls, not because they truly object, but as a negotiating tactic or to seem less eager. The phrase is non-compositional: the literal words ('making oneself difficult') do not signal the strategic, performative nature of the behavior.
No te hagas el difícil y acepta la oferta; sabes que es buena.Don't play hard to get and accept the offer; you know it's a good one.
