Is game addictive?
I’ve been in a relationship for the past 3 months and I’m quite happy with my girlfriend, this last weekend was the first time since we started seeing each other that I went out with my friend. I arrived at the meeting point on time and didn’t realize that my friend had sent me a text saying he was going to be an hour late, since I didn’t want to be late I had left my apartment without my contacts or glasses so I thought now that I have some time I’m going to get some contacts. On my way to get the eye contacts I saw a girl sitting by herself and don’t know how to explain it but I just hit on her… It was quite weird and good at the same time, that was the first time in 3 months that I hit on a girl and it was going quite great.

Got her number and spent almost an hour talking to her until my friend sent me the text telling me he had arrived, this really hot Swedish girl started sending me SPAM messages asking me if I wanted to meet her later that night bla bla bla of course I didn’t accept but it was great having that feeling again and talked to my friend about it. Went out to a bar and met a quite attractive Russian girl… it was funny because she just wouldn’t stop getting close to me an try to kiss me but I refused and that same girl made it very clear that she was willing to sleep with me after letting her very clear that I was already dating someone. For me the whole experience was quite funny, I had no intentions of making out or sleeping with any of these girls and was doing just for the “fun” of it.
What do you guys think? Can you get "addicted" to flirting with women?

After a while of doing PU, most guys become naturally flirty. It becomes part of their personality and is hard to turn off.

No man, it´s just our beautiful little mediterranean city filled with HBs that makes it hard not to think about gaming girls all the time lol

No but seriously now, of course it is addictive. Gaming girls (or making new friends. Or having sex. Or smoking. Or eating a good meal. Or countless other things) triggers your bodys rewarding system, releasing serotonine and other "feel-good" hormones into your bloodstream.

To me, skipping a good chance to game is like skipping a day at gym. I just don´t feel good about myself if I don´t do it.

To answer this question, we need to define the word "addicted".

1. To cause to become physiologically or psychologically dependent on a habit-forming substance: The thief was addicted to cocaine.

2. To occupy (oneself) with or involve (oneself) in something habitually or compulsively: The child was addicted to video games.


Yes. You can get addicted to game, as you can get addicted to playing video game.

I don't believe I only speak for myself when I say that one of the most exciting parts of gaming is the thrill you get when you do it! When you know exactly what you should do, you do it, and it works. It's a feeling that not much in this world can compare to imo.

As to "how" addicted you can become. Since you haven't gone out in about 3 months, I wouldn't say you're addicted. And to be perfectly honest, I think that the fact that you have a girlfriend has changed your body language and your mindset so that you're more attractive than usual to girls.

I'd say go out, game, have fun! Of course, don't let it go overboard. We don't want you ending up cheating on your girlfriend or the relationship ending because you're constantly hitting on other girls.

To sum it up - Game can be addictive because it's fun and exciting, but I don't think that it's normal to be so addicted that it comes to the point where you're unable to maintain a relationship because you have a need to game, so strong that you have to act upon it.

Post subject:  i can relate to this
I can relate to this, you get a lot more flirty after i started with the game. If you get good at something, something that drives you. The game is something you have strived for months, maybe years to master and suddenly you have to shut it off, that is really hard. There is just no turn off button, so the best way is just to have fun and enjoy it, you never know how long the relationship will last.

Its a reward getting the interest from a hot girl, when you know she wants you and just playing with it. This is something really intriguing. The are some excitement about doing this, being part of a society and just enjoying the moment living the life.

But worry then as each day comes, because he knows it might be his last

my favourite quote. :)

Thank you all for your replies, maybe I didn’t phrase it correctly as “addicted” is not the right word for this situation. I went you last Saturday with a friend of mine and it was great again, had a lot of fun and enjoyed my time talking with some girls

The funny thing is: After an AFC does PU for a while, he doesnt get addicted, he becomes a normal, healthy guy. And normal, healthy guys enjoy talking to girls.

Stupid questions like these should be posted in General Questions. PUA Lounge should be a place where there is not a flood of pointless threads.

I don’t think is pointless at all, I’ve met lots of guys who have been doing this for a while and are in the exact same position as I am. At some point you realize you start missing it. I’ve never been an AFC, I’ve been quite lucky and have always been good with girls the “problem” I’ve had when I started dating girls is that I just miss meeting other women, not sleeping with them or making out with them…
