Elysian Powder Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Is there some manual or secret society that men are living by, especially recently? Is it just me or does anybody else notice how many women , myself included, he have mentioned issues of men playing games. Games that include pulling back or making broken promises then expecting the female to show them love& attention. Is there a book or website that guys are coached by? I know guys talk, but there seems to be an epidemic! People who are in lasting relationships...have you decided to overlook the games & a few inconsistencies or is your relationship free of games and/or inconsistencies? Please share. I'm very discouraged at this point regarding even trying to figure out this thing called dating, love, like, etc... You could say that we're playing a game. The name of the game is '' guyland'', and we ain't coming out of it, ever. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/men/article4833106.ece Many forums on the web are dedicated to make cads out of men, but I''m not going to reveal the forum's urls.
El Brujo Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Is there some manual or secret society that men are living by, especially recently? If there is such a manual, then everyone except me has read it. Men AND women. I can't find it online or in any library because nobody ever printed it. It's really just a bunch of rules everyone is supposed to learn when they're in their teens. The only problem is that the internet changed everything... but most people still don't want to chuck tradition and create a new game plan. IMO that's why there are so many bitter single people. Medicine tastes bad too, but it beats getting sicker.
Eddie Edirol Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Perhaps though, I'm giving giving in too soon to men who show me attention. I probably need to make them "work" longer? Is that it guys? or do you consider that a game as well. It's almost like we can't avoid some sort of game. Who wants to be considered easy, weak or on the other extreme too overbearing(an adjective that I never get because i'm usually so laid back that men don't really think I care, but I do...!) Makin them "work" isnt going to get you any closer to what you want. Youre still going after the guys that have choices, and they will play games as long as they have options.

Those guys aren't interested in women when they behave like this - this seems like common sense to me. You need to trust your gut instincts.
Author luvflower Posted September 23, 2011 Author Posted September 23, 2011 Do you hug your guy "friends" alot? Do you go on dates with them? (hang out alone one-on-one?) I don't hug my guy friends alot, unless we're dating. I go out with them from time to time... my roommate is a guy.

You need to trust your gut instincts. You're right, it is common sense. I just find it hard to believe that this behavior is so companion amongst men/people lately. If we all keep playing games, we'll keep getting nowhere fast.

If we all keep playing games, we'll keep getting nowhere fast. The guys that have the options are the ones that are getting somewhere, thats why they can play the games. The people that go after them and encourage it are the ones that get nowhere. So when you stop chasing these types of guys, you avoid these issues.

Yeah, I would never date a woman with a male roommate. you can say "I would never do that!", but every guy I know who had female roommates slept with them. Even when they had boyfriends. The guys you are pursuing? Probably once had a female roommate. And slept with her, when she had a boyfriend.
