ChesneyChrist: Game-playing is a cross between manipulation and fun and there are people who prefer to go without fun and just manipulate. Let's be honest it's not the division and discord you dislike in game-playing, it's the wit and social intelligence.
pedro27: but my mind says, example let's say even here on CS, if u don't like a person, the ''game'' is on to get back at them by even starting a thread or post, IMO IT'S A ''GAME'' TO GET EVEN LOSE OR WIN
point taken?
If you are really interested in games people play, read the book, Games People Play by Eric Berne.

pedro27: but when u date, it's called a game of love,
Pedro, I just asked my kids, and they also referred to me dating:- I have worked with this one guy, where his wife died about 2 years ago, but apparently he had had and eye on me since I started doing work for the company 10 years ago. I went out with him twice, he bought me gold jewellery, and lots more, that I have back to him. That is not a game, as I humoured him, and then told him to go fly a kite...…but he still hasn't given up....I really don't know why.....He has No chance....
