MercuryMorrison1 Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I've never actually tried ''Online dating'' before. I've seen the commercials, heard a few success/horror stories, but that's about it. I do have a friend who online dates though, I watched over his profile earlier today, he was there so it wasn't like I was creeping on him or anything. But he was showing me how it all works and stuff. And the particular site he was using would often give him little tips of info about how to handle talking to girls. Alot of the ''tips'' it was giving him was telling him to basically be indirect with anyone he meets on the site. To act like he's intrested ''but not really''. Things of that nature. Maybe its just me...But I try to be very direct with my desires when it comes to dating...I never was a fan of mind games or trying to play the other one. Just seems like a waste of time to me...But I guess that's why they call dating a ''game'' after all. What are your thoughts?
Author MercuryMorrison1 Posted August 9, 2012 Author Posted August 9, 2012 Being direct has never worked for me. The surest way to not get sex from a girl is to mention sex. I'll admit I've never just outright asked for sex. There are a few omissions in which a little disgression is required. However I do let it be known VERY early in the game what my expectations are. Either they riciprocate or they don't...And you both save alot of time that way. At least that's how I've managed to work it out so far. 1
fishtaco Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Mind games in dating happened before there was even the internet. Most people play mind games, on rare occasions you'll meet one that doesn't, regardless of online or not online.
FitChick Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Mind games means someone isn't that interested in you.
fishtaco Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Well, mind games means that person wants something from you. Sometimes a woman will play mind games to keep a guy around that she's not interested in, to get attention/services from him. And I'm sure men do the same to women too. But sometimes, when a person isn't having the "impact of attraction" from someone they're interested in, mind game is a possible way for increasing that attraction level. Some people go there right away, I go there as a last resort. But that's just personal preference. So if a person is completely disinterested, romantic, platonic or anything else, then they will ignore you. Why even bother with mind games? But if they want something from you, then mind games is one way to get it. Sometimes, the only way.
