I don't like it lol. If someone it's like that with me I'd be like: Be direct, jisus.
🙈😂 honestly girls usually dont like it, but it works on us. Guys actually do it a lot
Probably truth 😂
It is. I hate it too because i pull this game yet somehow have gotten sucked into it. Player guys love it, hence why they are players🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Lmao, yeah I get it. I just stop everyhing if someone does that. It's so stupid for me lol 😂
Be careful what you ask for. Some guys gonna take " be direct " in a wrong way and spam you lol. 😏✌️😁
That happens but I'm direct too 😂
I can't be openly direct here lol 😂😂
Just send me a message lol I'm so curious.
This sounds like a new word for a very, very old game. It hasn't happened to me because I don't play games like that. And, when a woman is doing that, it's as obvious as a neon sign. A guy has got to be as dumb as a fence post not to recognize it. My point is... no woman is worth giving up your "manhood" for.
I go for alpha successful men, anything i throw dosnt bruise their egos, trust me. And they are far from dumb
I don't understand how your answer relates to your question... "From my experience personally i dont realize i do this, but regardless it always seems to wrap men around my finger for whatever reason (maybe they like the strong personality?)" If your men don't fall for it, they're not wrapped around your finger. The question ask "how do we feel about (teasing, negging) as a technique?" My answer is it's been going on since time began. That's what women do. If a man lets himself get wrapped around a woman's finger, how can he even answer the question? LOL
You mean manipulation? Yeah, I don't like that shit.
Yes thats another way of putting it🤷🏼♀️
Hey!!! Some of us like to be manipulated!!!🤬
It’s cuz you’re hot and whatever you say guys will flaunt to it
Ohh finchie😄🙈
You could be right there
I know I am lol
All you have to say is hi to a guy and he his attention goes right to you , you got him wrapped , so the only guys that turn you on are the ones that play hard to get lol
Lol yeah basically or the ones who reject me. I actually was rejected by one recently for the first time in my life, im still in shock
Exactly , hard to get lol and most girls are like that , us guys don’t really understand it but it’s just the way girls are period , the second we lose interest is the second she is turned on lol It comes down to the fact that a girl likes to look up to her man she wants to feel weak in her knees to him she wants to rely on him not him relying on her so the fact that guy rejected you is making you want him more lol But the crazy thing is if he finally doesn’t reject you anymore you might lose interest , it’s the thrill of the chase. I like to say I understand girls’ but to be honest I don’t that’s why the book of understanding girls is a book that never ends lol it doesn’t take much for a guy to be satisfied in a relationship all she has to do is a few little things the hard part is keeping her satisfied is where we fuck up lol
Lol guys are the same way with the thrill of the chase
I don’t know about that , when we see a girl that is a knock out to us we want her to just come to are arms lol we tend to pretend we aren’t that interested so we have a chance with her lol
Assuming I like the girl who's doing it I quite like being playfully teased/negged and annoyed and I will 100% do it back to them.
As for my reasoning I have no idea why I like I just do *shrugs* maybe it's because I like being challenged and it shows a strong personality and someone who will keep me on my toes and push me forward and it allows me the freedom to be how I want to be. Ok after writing that I guess I do know why I like it lol.
I don't do it and I don't like it. I will reject a woman immediately for it. It shows she's mean-spirited and not a good person to let into my heart, nor someone I want to be around frankly.
Regarding the comment in the update:
It's not a matter of a lack of confidence. It's a matter of self-respect. If a man thinks by allowing a woman to treat him like shit that somehow makes him alpha, then he's delusional (he believes he's in a position of power when in fact he's massively disempowered).
@Gabriel007, something to consider man.
It attracts a certain type of woman
I get that, I geuss,,, I hear where you are coming from at least...
My point is, people differ, I like it, some won't, I like it in a quid pro quo kind of way, tit for tat is something different, I like it in the way that you don't have to constantly be on the lookout for what you are saying and walking on eggshells,, degrading is obviously something to have boundaries on, but easily offended is also unhealthy and obviously certain social situations it would be inappropriate, but it is nice to know that you can tell someone what you honestly think, without them taking offence if you did not mean it in an offensive manner,, if you have playful teasing in your relationship from time to time and you know that both of you can take it without being offended or degrading one another constantly, you know that they can also deal with hearing the truth, without taking it too personally...
I like a little teasing in flirting, obviously in the end it comes down to who a person *really* is in the long run,, not everyone who teases are mean spirited and not everyone who is smiling and happy and meek and mild is well spirited,, some people will be overly nice to your face and still stab you in the back,,, it comes down to who a person really is and I believe you should always take your time, in my opinion ENOUGH time before really letting someone all the way into your heart even once you are dating, that is why a strong foundation of friendship is so important in my opinion...
I was also simply stating why certain things play out the way they do in those type of situations and why people do do it and why some people act the way they do around such behavior...
I hear where you are coming from too though, especially with letting yourself be treated like shit, there I do agree, you should have enough respect for yourself to distance yourself from being treated like shit
I respect the comments you deliver on GaG,, but regarding teasing in flirting, maybe we should agree to disagree...
@Gabriel007 I agree with what you said here with the way you explained it. But that isn't negging. Negging is something different.
What is negging?
It shows high powered men im not going to fall to their feet, and its banter. Another insecure one trying to make me sound crazy. Sorry, most of the people with these answers would get a hard pass on me approaching in a million years anyways, so your chances of this happening is next to none. Moving on.
@ Jamie05rhs People have been "negging" looong before that word was made up,, these so called "pickup artist" limp dick losers who just want to make money of off things they didn't create, just thought of a way to "weaponize" something people have been doing forever and "coining" a word as "their own" and has practically given a very negative connectation of manipulation in their own words to something that has been done for generations...
What you are reffering to as negging possibly could just be people being dicks,, there is a difference I can agree with, between teasing and being just straight up a dick...
That is why I asked what is negging, I was answering you in that question,, think a little man...
In short negging is a made up word for something that is just part of teasing...
@SexyAshh What is your take?
@Jamie05rhs
@Gabriel007 I thought that I had posted a response earlier but apparently it didn't post. But what I was going to say is that negging is a form of manipulation where a guy criticizes a woman and makes her feel insecure so she will think he's better than her (when in fact he is not.)
@Jamie05rhs Dude this is now really getting old, did you even read my previous comment,, my opinion is "pickup artists" created the word "negging" and made it into a tool to manipulate people in effect giving a negative connectation to the actual act,,, what they are describing negging to be has always been part of teasing for a long time before they created the word, it was always just more playfull and they (pickup artists) turned it into a consciously manipulative device to decieve people...
Sooo I reject the idea of negging in it's entirety and say that it simply comes down the intention of the person behind it,,, there are a lot of things a person can do to be manipulative that would not be manipulative in other situations it depends on the intention of the person,,, do you want a very basic, very simple example,,, how about crying, the simple act of crying can be a tool of manipulation if someone consciously uses it to attain a desired effect in someone else,,,, so is it then manipulation every time someone cries?
It depends on mentality of the woman, because teasing and negging is sexy and normal... but to control or emasculate me nah that's a different level...
Ohh i tend to control🙈 i have a bad habit of that as well. Even though im a woman i definatly take on more of masculine energy:/
In bedroom that will be good
But otherwise nah, unless in communication and u are right
Well always seems to work for me but thanks for the advice
It works for awhile right? because th relationship intends to decline... at the end of th day men was created with a certain mentality...
According to how long it last... th man is intimidated by yr beauty and lust after yr flesh, sex is great , you independent...
Mmmm i dont think so, i know plenty of women who wear the pants in relationships/marriages.
I in say no... bt spiritually that is not right and physically u ar not a man... woman are emotional creatures they can't truly lead, men is th one who cultivates... bt sin corrupt things just as society
It hav ntin to do with being insecure... it hav ntin to do with being insecure... and if you ever really had a alpha men in your life, will nagging and teasing is sexy and normal emasculating is a different story... we willnt or I disrespect but is something we or I can't take continually, because alpha men ar dominant thank u
I tease, and then do it more so if she teases me back
Where tf have u been
Let's just say my phone decided to defy the protection of an otter box case, fell 5 feet and landed on it's back. and now the lcd screen is busted. pure black screen 😐
I can still listen to music tho!!! 😃😒
How are you on here then?
I don't know how people manage to do that, I've dropped all of my phones and no issues, even ran one over😂🙈
laptop 😐
Omgggg🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ did u make it back to cali
mhmmmmm nnnoppeee lol We're in Okinawa now tho. much much better. Now I am back to living a dorm like life with one room mate. Soon I'll be home tho 😜
Much better besides the fact you have no cell phone🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😂
Does the new roomate snore?🙈
lol no 😂 and he's not really a new room mate, he was my first room mate at the beginning
I either laugh it off or play with it. It depends upon whether I find her interesting or not.
Good answer☺️
Im basically the same
Yeah, it goes back and forth, it's good when you can joke around with each other.
Finally someone who gets it
Yeah as long as it's not malicious, it's just banter, flirting.
You seem to be pretty sexist. You shame men as "insecure" because they won't put up with your manipulating and borderline toxic behavior.
Those men who put up with you are whores who will do anything for your pussy. They are not men.
Yeah thats it. They typically make up to 6 figures or above and are desperate pussys.😄☺️
Dont blame others for your shortcomings.
I'm not blaming anyone for my shortcomings. I'm shaming certain people for their behavior. And you really are sexist. You equate wealth accumulation with manliness.
And why did you assume my situation?
Wealth does make you more manly, there is no denying. Not only does it bring more female attention, it also shows power and determination and utmost confidence. You dont get that far without it
Thanks for admitting your ignorant sexism.
Have a terrible life. You won't of course, because those like you never do but I hope you have a bad one.
Wow, this is a total 24 year old comment😂 yepp its gonna be so horrible now because of this very comment, how will i ever go onnnnn😁😄
Negging = games over.
That's somethin that is meant to trigger someone's insecurity. actually harming for longterm relationship that is healthy.
Gives huge red flag's about the one pulling it.
Teasing and flitting is good.
If negging actually hits an insecurity, you are insecure.
Yes. in that area that person get negged.
An old PUA tactic towards female's since majority of female's was extremely insecure in a lot of areas and still are.
Only bad PUA teachers have been teaching that art the past 15 - 20 years.
Most people are insecure with something. most times with multiple thing's.
Most common in how they look, aren't good enough, not a good partner, aren't attractive, being rejected.
You are correct.
It's the only way I know how to flirt. Sometimes i end insulting them, but that weeds out the serious insecure people who can't take a joke. Win win.
Thank you! Apparently everyone is insecure in the comment section becauae they are all crying
well teasing, it makes it kinda obvious something is goin on so that could be why they like it, when things are simple, its just great what can i say 🤷🏻♂️🤣
Negging is a technique I mostly see used by men towards women.
My first text to my boyfriend was "you forgot a rebate in the register you dink" after him and I switched as cashiers. He told me he thought it was hilarious/cute lol
Negging is overrated in my opinion, but a bit of playful teasing can be fun if done in flirtatious way and not a bullying way
I don't really care tbh. I'd like to care but I don't even notice it anymore
I hate it but at the same time im attracted to it. One thing that I really didn't like though, is when my ex used to punish me with no sex for stupid reasons.
id be instantly turned off for weeks.
If negging works on a man they're a simp.
A woman should never be a factor in how your perceive yourself. In other words, her opinion of you shouldn't matter.
The whold point is the negging dosnt affect the men, just shows them im not going to fall all over them and they like that. Its more sassy then anything
I can't imagine that I would put up with it. However, I realize there is a high percentage of men desperate for attention from a woman. Perhaps, these are the men you seek out.
Lol alpha men with money who can get any women they want? Yepp they are real desperate🙈😂
No theyve just never been put in their place, they like the sassiness because no one else would do it
