The Game

So, Id like to say that most of us don't like to play mind games or take a ride on the merry go round of dating, however, lately I am noticing that when you are just starting out with somebody, it is a game.

for example: I was casually talking to this guy and I didnt really care if I texted him or not because I wasnt interested. He would text and call me all the time.. then we started hanging out and then started to like eachother. He went on a trip, came back, and two days later started acting really weird. He hasnt been texting me as much and has periods of silence. We had "the talk" and he said he likes me a lot blah blah blah. It seems as though now, this has turned into a game. If hes not going to talk to me, I'm not going to go out of my way to talk to him. And at this point if he texts me, Im not sure Im going to write back.

The Game: agree or disagree?

Why didn't you tell him you weren't interested?

It was fun playing it, huh? No, don't text him back. End the game yourself, don't allow him to end it for you.

Been there done that

and what I've learned from the experiences is that there are no games being played when the person is right for you. In other words, if I have to think twice about rather I should or shouldn't call him, he's not The One. I would rather date someone where everything comes naturally. I don't want to "think" about simple things like what to say and when to say them. That kind of thinking is a game.
