dating new man/woman - do you play the game?

[Marius]

So i was introduced to this guy through a mutual friend and we've been txting for a while. Had a date on saturday and it went well.

Was out with the friend tonight and she proceeded to steal my phone because he text me and i was texting him back, she then started to moan at me because i wasn't playing "the game".
According to her i needed to wait a while before texting him back, and im not allowed to text him unless he texts me back first(was supposed to go out and i didn't so was gonna text him to say i wasn't but apparently its not allowed). so here the question BG...

Do you play "the game"?
or
Do you think "the game" is a load of shit and there is no rules when starting to date someone new?


also....you lose

Life's a game.

At any rate, when I started dating my girlfriend, she never purposely waited or baited me, text responses were always prompt in this case, and we've been together for quite some time now. Just play it by ear, I think if there are any rules for dating someone new, it wouldn't be this.

Do what I want, fuck that shit.

Granted I've been single for 7 years so what do i know.

[SephYuyX]

There was a thread about this not too long ago. The concensus was that only fuckwits play 'the game'.

[Julian]

Sounds dumb, just text him.

and post pics

Are you a guy? This changes things I bet.

If your friend, who is a girl, is telling you how to go about dating another guy just tell her the shut the fuck up because she doesn't know wtf.

[Pirian]

If he was playing the game too then nothing would come of this. Fuck "the game" and fuck your friend

[Dearly Demented]

The Game, I just lost it.

[Killgannon]

seriously, fuck "the game" whatever bullshit that is... games fuck up relationships, not strengthen them.

[Purrrfect]

If you want him to think you're 19, play the game.

If I am interested in a female in the least I call them asap, games are for retards.

[Mojo]

Your friend sounds like a bitch. If you want to text him then text him.

[Marius]

[Kyo]

While your at it, post her tits.

[Kyo]

That will prove a point.

[Mojo]

these are the exact responces i was looking for. next time i see her im gonna show her this.

[Zalius]

so are you doubting your own ability to intelligently gauge social situations or are you just trying to prove your friend wrong

[Aerides]

Rules for gay guys =/= rules for straight girls... sorry Marius!

The earlier thread was about when to call a straight girl if you're a straight guy - general rule was fuck the 3 day thing, call when you want - with which I agree. Gay boiz rules may be completely different, but in general, ... txting...if I'm not sure you're cool and you're all over my every word... yeah... hold back a tad till we make it past a date or two maybe?

Edit: Orig post on when to call etc.:

Fuck that shit. Immature fuckwit faggots play by different "rules" than straight guys. Gay guys that are actually interested in finding a connection beyond the insertion of a penis into an anus are straightforward.

If you like him, let him know. End of story.

[Shinryuu]

People who think they know the rules of "the game" are insecure fuckwits trying to attain some leverage. Be a boss, be confident, beat the game.

Be yourself.
