Do You Enjoy Manipulating People?

Examples:

you don't text a woman back until X period of time passes so you don't seem too interested or available

same but responding to a prospective buyer of your property

etc

To me... I don't think it's bad because other people do it to you whether deliberately or not (especially women) and if you're not doing it back to them - you're basically at a disadvantage. But I don't enjoy it, to me it's a chore, I don't do it naturally like women and I'm forgetul so I have to set freaking reminders "OK get back to ABC in 3 days". I'd rather just respond ASAP but I know it would hurt me in the long run.
 


I don't like doing it at all but it's necessary most of the time. I don't like outsmarting people or playing games with women but it's necessary in this society if you want to achieve a lot of things.
 
Same here, I'd rather respond right away and move on to the next thing. If I don't respond it usually means I'm busy or don't feel like taking action at the time based on the lack of response.

My soon to be ex-wife tried playing these games during the break up process, pissed the fuck out of me. I hope now she knows better.
 
I think of a lot of personal social problems in life like chess - and yeah women are a perfect example. So when I can anticipate the reaction to a move I make and find myself in an advantageous position that I created, fuck yeah it puts a devious smile on my face.

I don't play games, period. Honestly don't have enough time for games. IMO its better to spend time on more productive things.
 
Until you are actually ignoring them unintentionally, you are still a young grasshopper.

A combination of these two sums up my views.

Women who don't play games are boring. But if you're intentionally playing the game you're boring.
 
I don't. Life's too short for that shit, which is one of the many reasons I enjoy SE Asia. As long as you use some common sense, all that bullshit is out the window.
