I agree...there are many players out there. Some of us do not play games. We may be shy at first but would like the chance to talk...even for a moment. conversing

i think when they asks your number your the only one in their minds for a moment, then as they keep scrolling the mouse and find better than you are and your history. It happened to me few times, but it don't bother me a bit. They save me from emotional connection. Or i guess it never meant to be. Bec if the person really wants to call you, they will call you especially if the have a descency to be honest. I think most of the people in here play games. Just the saying says "scratch more lottery tickets till you find the winning numbers". Don't qoute this!!!!!!! just made it up LOL.frustrated

I think the question should be, "Why do people play games?" It's not just men who play games, and it's not just women who play games. To suggest that one gender plays games and the other does not is a subjective view. At 54, I've done a lot of living, and have observed the behavior of men and women, and almost all are pretentious, putting their "best foot forward." Once the couple are married, they no longer feel the need to put their "besy foot forward." This is nothing new. This type of thing has been going on for a long time. However, in doing so, no one ever knows who they marry real well. After marriage, the partner does things that surprises the other. That's because pre-marital relationships are rarely real. The mother of the wife then comes to ask her, "I thought you said he was so wonderful?" The answer most often given is, "He was before we got married."

What does the guy do? He goes to the bar and complains to the bartender about the crazy things his wife does. The bartender asks, "So, why did you marry here?" He responds, "She wasn't like that before we married."

I am sure many of you either heard stories like this, or even have taken part of stories like this. Therefore, I conclude that playing games is not gender exclusive.

To SOnof,
You said it very well, that it's not a gender issue. It is very much a personality issue. Why? bec WE are just human being. We're subject to any pre program notions how men and women do in this materialistic world we lived in. Now the question is "WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE PLAYERS THAN OTHERS?". Well, in my observation, bec some people have a very low morality/ or no morals at all. They were inclined to do something that they think it's best for their ego. That is why players. gamers and liars have the same category in my book. But when you read their profiles they always mention that honesty is their is one of their virtue, but when you started talking to them, their true colors came out.

Oh, I don't know that the basis for pretentiousness is low morals or values. Some of that may be true. But, I think more often people have a low self-esteem, and are fearful of rejection. So they do everything they can to not be rejected. People in America, very often, come from dysfunctional families, and don't have the the skills to be honest about who they are without the fear of rejection.

Now, this is just my opinion, but I believe it is possible to have high morals and values, and still suffer from low self-esteem.
