Title: Relationships, playing games and you (no it's not about WoW)

So, just wondering (for those of you in succesful or semi-succesful relationships) - do you "play games" in it? I am not talking about cheating or anything nasty but e.g. stuff like occassionally playing hard to get to get what you want (or just keep the relationship interesting). Or do you find such stuff to be an unacceptable manipulation?

Unacceptable manipulation.  But I'm more wary of being played than being the player, so I'm sorta like Counter-Intel.  Zero tolerance for pussy provocateurs.

Unless it's early in a relationship I know is not ever going to go anywhere.  Then I'm a game-playing douchebag.  Because it's fun.

I hate it myself, too. But the fucking annoying thing is that sometimes when I (against myself) resort to it, I get better results than when I am just getting involved and committed.

So yeah, about fags, it's like with women, too.  <_<

Fuck no.  My philosophy was that if a woman didn't love me for me, well, there were others out there.

I think it's about one of those multi-player shooters.

Raz voted for the Raz option.  As you guys can probably imagine, I'm not that good with people. :(
