Men dont like games just as much as women ..

but in Order to be "in the game" you first have to know HOW TO PLAY THE GAME ...

It's the SAME game .. but .. Men and women play it differently

A certain amount of back and forth is neccessary for a man to figure out if a relationship is going to move on to the next level ... he needs to know how you act when he's late ..or bored .. when he fails .. and when he succeeds ..

It's all so easy when you BOTH are only agreeing with each other ... the Test comes when you let down your guard and show the real person behind the smile ...

Why do some men split?

Its an executive decison .. they compiled a mental list of the things they admire .. and then subtract the negative .. If the list is longer than the postive ... lol! You're left standing alone ...

Some men face the music and endure the tirade of "What do you mean...??? You and I are PERFECT!!! I've already ordered the wedding dress! You can't leave me ..

Other men won't put themselves thru that .. and just fade away ..

Yeah .. its a cowards momment .. but effective ..

I don't agree with ANYONE playing a game with someones Heart .. but come on! The Whole act of falling in Love is a total game from the start ...We're Always putting our best foot forward .. dressing the part .. looking for lightning in a bottle ...

How many of us have thrown those stones?

Most of us I'm sure ...

Gotta love it, another thread about a 'game player' who hates others that play the games she plays. Look before you leap, scorpion girl. From your story, it sounds like he got his and you got yours after your 'great night'. Meanwhile, you did your part in hurting his wife by being cheap whore for a dog! Easy come, Easy go... Some gotta pay for love, others play the game and get it on the cheap!
Birds of a feather flock together... and other f-words...

I find its women who are the game players. Even the ones that say they don't play games still play games.

men play games because woman do too and then after you realize it's BS it's too late--lesson learned game players attract game players--law of the universe 101--

I have never not showed up to a meeting.When I set up to meet someone I'm usually there before they are.I have had guys no show up though.I never had to tell a guy that It didn't go.I just told them no sex at first and that's when I never heard from them again.No great loss though.It was their loss because I have a lot to offer.

Not all of us men do!!! I met a fair share of women who do the same. In the end, our soulmates are out there.......

People are not honest. Men want sex. Women want to be taken care of.

What's a game?

I gotta get out more.....

I think both sexes play games; some more than others.

But some of us are serious about a relationship. I know I am.

The hell??

So, one man... count 'im, ONE effin' man treats you badly, and now all of a sudden it's "why do MEN"...

Jesus Christ.

Look, *I* didn't wrong you, nor did anyone else but that one guy. There is no MEN in this equation. There is MAN.

The question you want to be asking is "Why did THIS MAN play games".

I don't play games and I'm sure you can find dozens of men on this very site that don't. But given the stellar judgement you've shown so far, I don't expect that you'd notice.

All this flippin' generalization based on ONE bad experience is startin' to really piss me off. Ir's all over these boards.

looking for respect, and class, and courtesy etc etc etc

Seems to mean "looking for a hot guy who looks good with his shirt off, who my friends will be in awe of and call me slick for dating...who may HAPPEN to have the above listed traits. If not; that can be overlooked. Further more; if you are NOT a super hot boy; please do not any level of respect or courtesy whatsoever.


I'm glad you said something Frrosty(d53930). I was beginning to think I'm the only person who noticed this. Ive emailed several women with this sort of attitude in their profile thinking that "hey, that sounds good to me, a woman needs respect and courtesy" Well it wasn't long (ie after the first email) they seemed not to say anything. Always wanting me to call them but never wanting to call back, always asking why i didnt call, when i did but they never seemed to answer. The only think i can guess is if you dont like me or you dont think we are a good match then say so. If your truly not playing games then say what you think instead of leading people on. Even if you come right out and say "hey your profile says no games, so let me be straight, you don't seem to even want to talk, are you involved with someone else or just not interested?". Nope no straight answer from these people. They always say like "oh I'm really busy today sorry" or "what? why do you not like me?" or some BS excuse so they can keep you strung up in and involved as some sort of Plan B.

Well the lesson of this story is if their profile says "no games" or "respect and courtesy" chances are 4 out of 5 times this person plays games and can't be trusted.

YOU LIVE IN A DREAM WORLD BUDDY YOU SAY THAT BECAUSE YOU ARE A MAN BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF YOU MEN ARE THE SAME JUST LIKE YOU SAY WOMEN ARE.WISE UP AND BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF THAT,S WHY YOU HAVE NOBODY NOW


Oh yea sorry forgot to comment on this :( Forgive me for flaming a bit but I really cant help myself :(

I love advice from someone that can't seem to find the CAPSLOCK key..... What makes me want to believe you if you cant seem to (or are too lazy) to type in lowercase like everyone else.... Maybe you its fitting to run around YELLING at people on the forums....

*sigh* I guess having a conversation is just above some people...
