Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yNot having much "game" (depending on how we define it), I think the more physically unattractive a guy is, the more important it is that he has "game." I mean, for me, game ALSO includes being at least halfway hygienic, being able to talk a little bit without being creepy (sadly, I think many guys get labelled as creepy if they aren't physically attractive), and having a decent job and some passion and ambition. If THIS is "game," then I have a lot of this. But for whatever reasons, it never really seems to work. I wish I was a lot better at the attraction part.
So I think "game" is having "cool" passion or interest or "A cool job." or "makes some money" or whatever. I can have a passion like crazy, but it means nothing if it's not considered "cool." I can be ambitious to want to be a CEO or lead designer of an animation company, but around here, that's no game.10 Reply

+1 yNo game, no (high value) pussy. Simple as that.
A girl who found you very attractive (physically) in the first sight may make the first move or make it super easy for you to make a move and get her but this doesn't work in majority of the cases because most of the women don't care about the looks (that much), but the personality of the man and game enhances your personality.
Game isn't manipulation, it is being a charming, witty and confident man and girls find those traits irresistible. The better game you have, the more high value women you'll attract (granted they're not gold diggos).18 Reply- +1 y

@hi_it_is_me123 such women are in minority. Yes, looks matter to an extent, but if you are average looking, you can attract 80% of the women if you have a strong personality.

Bullshit. I can prove it on tinder. Tinder is an example. There are also studies that tell women only think 20% of the male population is attractive and the rest is "ugly"

@Cheesebread997 you're looking games as a bad thing. I'm not talking about mind games. I'm talking about the conversation flow.
+1 yI guess the answer to this question depends on how you define "game." To put it as simply as possible, the only thing that a man truly needs to attract me is for him to look good, be hygienic, and actually have the confidence to approach me. During his approach, if he shows that he actually has good social skills, isn't weird, and is kind, then I would consider dating him. If not being a weirdo, having good social skills, and looking and smelling good is considered "game" to you, then yes; game is very important. If that's not what you consider "game," then I need you to clarify so I can update my answer.

+1 yDepends on what you mean by "game". Everyone sees that very differently. To some its mind games and playing several people at the same time, in that case its a deal breaker if you HAVE game. To others its your confidence and ability to pick up girls, get them interested. Well I don't care how well he can do that, I see things in a very simple manner, people talk, sometimes they have chemistry, sometimes they like eachother sometimes they don't. A guy who is confident, feels good about himself, has a positive outlook will always have girls interested. Games are for kids or immature adults.

+1 yMen who act like they have game make women cringe. Men who come across as honest like ‘hey, I’m just enjoying my time here, join me if you want and let’s see where it goes’ are just so much more appealing. The kind of dudes who put on a show because they think it will woe or trick the female into liking them just come across as really pretentious. Like guys, are you aware that we know that you are just like us? You eat and you sleep and you shit and then eventually, you die. What are you trying to achieve by putting on this show? Not a fan.

+1 yI never understood this thing about a man having game, like I'm not attracted to PUAs. I can tell if a guy is a f*ckboy, womanizer, or wants a one-night stand. A man with no game to me is someone I can talk to easily and doesn't comment on my physical appearance, maybe like say I'm pretty once in a while, that's fine, but not like oh you're gorgeous, ugh I hate that type of flattery.

+1 yHe doesn’t have to be super suave and an expert at romancing women but it does help if he’s charming and good at talking to people in general, not just women he wants to date. Occasionally it can be cute when a guy is a bit shy or awkward but usually it’s better to have some “game”.

424 opinions shared on Dating topic. Every single man who ever lived has their own personal brand of "game". Some are just better than others.
Yes, a man does need strong game to compete in the sexual market place. Especially when he's young and the women he's competing for have an over inflated sense of sexual worth and a half dozen options without even trying. Including guys who are 5 years older than him with more money, better, more mature bodies, and more mature personalities.
If your game isn't in the top 20% of men, chance are, you'll be the kind of guy who meets a woman maybe once per year if that, and then screws that up.
And anyone who thinks "i don't need to play games" is deluding themselves. The fact of the matter is, attracting a partner requires you to present yourself in the best light. That is game, whether you call it that or not.20 Reply

I hope that kind of love still exist. 😅
Men without game and men who are simply decent human beings who want to find a woman to love are of zero interest to the members of the female collective.
Such a man will be Friend Zoned, if the woman can see a use for him as a beta orbiter. If she cannot see a way for the 'nice guy' to serve her needs, he will be told to FOAD.
Women want the 'exciting' bad boys, who will treat them like crap and break their hearts.
They are drawn as moths to a flame. When that flame scorches with wings, the women say that all men are like that.
It is not all men, just the men who are chosen by women.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yBeing positive and forthcoming is an ideal that anybody can appreciate. But the human mind has an attraction to scarcity. Things or people that are difficult or mysterious to connect with creates an impression that their affection is higher value. We seek challenge but sometimes to our own detriment.
Bottom line is women are attracted to CHALLENGE. The second they know they “have” a guy he won’t last long considering he even got a chance to start.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yFunny how the guys say you need game & the women say no.

Lol okay, A "Fuck boy" is pretty much the same as calling a guy a creep or a slaze. I've always liked shy, reserved guys personally. Its actually more flattering and cute when guys get nervous and shy around girls. If a guy is flirtatious and smooth it makes me think he's probably tried the same act on a tone of other girls. Us women can smell desperation from a mile away and don't fall for sweet talk. If a guy seems to automatically start flirting and complimenting us it can come off quite creepy and we can see what their intentions are very quickly.

Well, there are exceptions but normally I saw that their lives become monotonous because both parts know that they have what they want (their partner) and in many cases this is the reason of many break up. Again, its not for all people but what I see is like that. And a second date maybe don't determine if a person don't usually "play a game" I think
If the girl already likes you, then you can put your foot in your mouth all day and it just won't matter. Because she already likes you. Being smooth helps obviously, but you can be clunky and have things workout

I’m sure all women want a man with game, that wasn’t the question, the question is whether or not the guy with no game would ever get to the stage where you got to know him for who he really is and then fall in love or does his lack of game stop him from getting to that point because girls just dry up

This question make no sense cause you refuse to understand, I told you I don't like it when guys act weird (those who have "game" just sound to me like they're hypocrite playing a role, playing someone they aren't and "lie" to get with the girl).
So they're definitely unattractive to me.
