I could not place my interactions into one of those two catagories. It's never that straight forward. It's more of a building game.

In the foundation my aim is to assess the situation as best possible. What do you want from me?. . . . Could we be friends?....What's your world look like?

Action's speak louder than words.....

He turned the text game extreamely sexual last night.....
The he turned the FB extreamely sexual.......
He continues to tell me about another girl he is seeing........
I tell him I'll talk to him when he's done with the other girl (but keep it sweet)....
He attemps to 'back track' slightly on the other girl.....
Is he playing games???(silly little games)

I think he might be!! lol........

Let me see if I can't clear up what I am getting at. I am not talking about your interaction or aim or what have you. I am ask what sort of gratification are you seeking. Are you looking for the challenge/conquest of gaming the guy, or more the reward of you beating the guy at his own game? I think if you read your posts again I think you may see that you are in a way seeking out some sort of gratification if you weren't then you won't be playing the games you where playing as you are getting something out of it. What that is I don't know.
Actions do speak louder than words. Which is why I said he seems to be repaying you in kind for the game you played. He is playing games, and is trying to get you jealous. I don't know if you are still playing your games if not then you have to decide if you want to keep playing his games as I doubt he will stop or next him and go on to the next guy.

mmmm....NEXT....

I'm seriously considering the point you made about what I am wanting to achive in this situation.
The one conclusion I come to, is I'm trying to feed my ego.........(ugly little thing - the ego )

Not acting in tune with the rest of me........More serious thinking. . . . . .

I will say, It's strange how my path of enlightenment is unfolding. . . .

Its not strange at all I am just jumping you ahead in maturity. Most girls when they hit their 30's play less games because they pretty much learned it doesn't do them any good and quite frankly immature. Not saying they stop playing games as in some ways playing games is part of the dance.

By getting more mature now and at least realizing what is going on when it comes to guys, you are going to be able to get higher quality guys sooner and more often. As higher quality guys tend to like more mature girls. Yes there are high quality guys that like the immature girl but they tend to be players and sleep around.

Now I think may be a good time to at least look at why you get bored with guys if you don't play games.

I like how youre being honest. Really.

But I hate girls like you. Girls who lead a guy on just to boost their ego and never do anything with them

Just trying to meet a 10.

Really?

There is no leading on.........this is a real interaction with a real person....With real risks and doubts......He is now with the other girl......We will be friends.....

My internal sensor was telling me not to go there, and for a good reason.....He was trying to play me and the other girl off..........Hence^^^^^Now with the other girl!!! I don't play in to jelousy games....I have green eye's but not a shred of jelousy in me.....

Yes an ego boost......But my intentions where pure!

No guilt........ Just smiles......

sunny, he might just be fed up with you, sounds like pretty regular tactics of a guy who doesn't waste his time, He declares interest, gives invite, girl flakes, don't react, you flake a 2nd time, at that point you got my interest lost, going to move on, you would be bottom of list, in the you call me I won't call you category

jealousy is like the hail mary, of make a decsion, it is like, hey, you either want me or you don't take it or leave it, I have other options
