Why do people think they have to play games to get a person?

[Anonymous]

But then are upset the person they like moves on?

Not speaking on playing hard to get. Playing hard to get? They are not interested. Or is mind games/Playing hard to get the same thing?

[OldWomanBySoul]

I honestly don't know, it boggles my mind of people play games and aren't honest. I am not someone who can read mind or read between the lines. If you say no then I'm a take it as a no. I honestly can't give any advice on that, I'm even worse at picking up clues than most men are, sorry boo :/

“Nice guys lose” is just crap.
The harsh truth is that most girls are into good looking and rich guys, ask any girl, who doesn’t want a good looking and rich guy being nice to her? He will win her over despite him being nice or not. Good looking, rich and NICE guys are what girls look for.
The harsh truth is most “nice guys” are just guys whom girls see as less attractive and desirable, and some guys perceive themselves as less attractive and desirable so they try to be nicer to win the girl over.


Guys don’t play mind games, guys who play mind games are guys who have more options and so they don’t care if you stay or leave. Their hot and cold behaviours make you think that they are playing games. They are considered “bad boys”. “Bad boys” are usually those girls see as more good looking and desirable, be it looks or wealth.


If a guy genuinely likes you, he will go out of his way to pursue you. Either he doesn’t want you or he has some trauma

Who wants one of those girls anyways?

[Opinion Owner]

I don’t care if good looking rich guys will like me or not.
My answer isn’t to offend anyone. I’m just simply speaking out an opinion.
There’s no use attacking me verbally.

You didn't ready anything did you dear?

[shades777]

I didn't know it then but i believe women who play hard to get got other options and your not exactly her first pick or only pick but she's definitely interested, now if a chick ain't getty I keep it pushing, I got experience to know now

[Crankor]

If your "playing games" then your relationship isn't genuine. a lot of it I feel is from one being indecisive and thinking they don't have to put in any effort into it.

mind games work ngl. I stopped playing them. I can tell it drives someone crazier for you when you dont respond for couple hours. But i know what you mean if you're not responding AT ALL. then of course they will move on

[Asker]

Mind games period. I'm not interested. 1 way to lose me quick!!

[sheikalana]

I don't feel that way at all and never been in such situation. If I feel that a guy is playing games to get me I would dump him straight away. I don't have time for that.

[cth2188]

I don't play games I will simply tell a man I'm moving on and he should do the same. I don't like stringing people along or giving them false hope as things can change rapidly.

I don't play games. I just go over and say, "You're beautiful, I'm beautiful, let's do something." The end.

[red324]

I don't know. Are they playing mind games when they agree to go on a date, then ghost me? I just call that stupid and move onto someone else

[magiusX26]

playing hard to get IS a mind game and to me an automatic disqualifier. as are all mind games.

[magiusX26]

as to why people do this, it used to be a bit of a dating tactic but has now become known as dating. if you do not have, and use, some sort of "game" you do not date period.

Immaturity, indecisiveness, insecurity... general shitheadery

[fonduegirl]

Because society convinced us all we must find a partner at all costs, by hook or by crook.

[Anonymous]

Some people do it to fuck with a persons mind. It can be hard to read and half the time I’m scared to walk up to a guy and ask him out. I’ll do it with this one guy though as I really do like him.

[Anonymous]

There is a reason why you never hear the saying 'nice guys finish first'

[Asker]

Nice guys arnt actually nice though.
Good men are🥰

[Pohjolan]

That literally doesn't make any sense.

[Asker]

@Pohjolan know the difference between nice guy vs. Good guy

[Pohjolan]

@Asker
You do realise that the opposite of being nice is being a dick?

[hsshannah96]

Cause that’s the only way I get guys to initiate texts to me

[Anonymous]

Because of you play it straight she takes you for granted and walks away. Women want a challenge.

[Joker_]

I agree. Gaming is, for the most part, a tragic waste of time. Don't play games 👍

[CuriousMufuxka]

I've more seen playing games to keep a person..

[megabamse]

People that play games are a waste of time
