I believe I just got rid of the Goddess of game playing.. God I hate drama, and it seems younger women. Nothing good from them but a one night stand.

Not all play games, you just haven't found the right one... sometimes you have to take a look at the pattern, they types of guys you're picking, how you're acting... It's not always everyone else, sometimes we have to look into and at ourselves... Gotta admire an intelligent woman...  Well, considering my dates are few and far between, it would hardly be "over and over". And it's more like the same type of guy picking me out, than me picking them. whatever....... and shy away from the hard of hearing...  It isn't just the men. It is women as well. And they aren't ALL like that. You just need to have patience and weed through them. There ARE some really good men/women out there. Be patient. It doesn't happen over night. and realize we all control most aspects of our lives...  |

Games can be fun...but both players have to be enjoying the play. Getting in touch with your inner child or your inner flirt is flat out fun IF both people like that and are on a level field.
Games that are the leading on/hurtful type are a different story entirely! Still, I'd rather be single then settle...for someone whoisn't right for me - and that might include someone who doesn't know how to play at all. |

My experience is more about the incredible level of wrong I accepted than the numbers of wrong. Either way...I won't settle. |

You're only as alone as you want to be. If you can't figure out how to live by yourself, with yourself, comfortably, then how can you live with another person? Of course, many single people who were comfortable by themselves, ended up being happier single then in a relationship anyways.
I enjoy being in a relationship, but have found I tend to get antsy, and want to be on my own after about 6 months. Too much muffling by the other person gets old and irritating. |

Than play the games that guys seem to want to play. I'm done. Can you be a little more specific on the games? You sound upset. Did something happen recently?

Than play the games that guys seem to want to play. I'm done. Can you be more specific? I know in my case, I'll tell someone a specific boundary like "I'm the type of person who says exactly what I mean" and then I get a guy who challenges that right away and over and over again. It's as if he's wanting to make me falter. (one of the reasons I stopped dating a few years ago.) Game playing isn't fun at all. Some people like it. I don't. I can tell you this though.... don't stop dating. I did and it's harder to start again. I'm so nervous about starting again I could just be sick over the idea. I know that sounds a bit hypocritical but you'll end up wasting a lot of years if you stick with the strict I'm not dating anyone anymore thing. |

Dating is fun and games are part of that fun. Everyone plays them. For example, playing hard to get is a game.
As to the question of staying single, I want to remain un-married. But, I also want to meet someone speical. |

But, I also want to meet someone speical. Not everyone plays games. I don't and I don't like being challenged on something as if I am playing hard to get. "No" means "NO" not "negotiate". It's NOT FAIR for someone to assume that you mean something else when you're being absolutely up front honest. When that happens... a date can leave a someone feeling bullied at the end of it. It's freaking exhausting. It's hard enough to go out and deal with the nerves of going on a date as it is .. just to be bullied the whole time. And people wonder why I get the hiccups? Maybe some people ARE playing games... but not everyone is because it is simply not fun. |

in each of our own ways both men and women like to play games women like to play on emotions while guys just like to be the predators we are, so to complain about being tired of playing games is nonsense. we all do it.

New thought brought on by a recent conversation...
Perhaps we all play games to some extent, as part of the protective mechanisms we've put carefully into place. Sometimes we don't even know we are playing because we've gotten so good at the game (or so we think!) Someone can come along and hit the ball out of the park and you may or may not appreciate it, but it can happen. The question ultimately is if you can both take a victory lap regardless of how the game ended. |

people must break the cycle and realize no person can change another and maybe its the type of person you have dated for a long time that you believe every man or women is playing a game i to have been stuck in this rut and will get out

Ifound my true love long ago and believe i will find her again in a different person because my first true love passed away I'm sure I will too... I worry not. I have been divorced for 10 years and had a boyfriend 4 years ago..I have gotten use to it but have not given up. It's all good. Life has a funny way of working itself out.
