Or just a certain type?<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nAnswer: <\/strong>Playing \u201chead games\u201d is not inherent to either men or women. It is more of a &#8220;personality type&#8221; issue. Unfortunately, a lot of dating gurus, of the same personality type, teach people strategies that are \u201chead games.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Most \u201chead games\u201d are uncomfortable unless you know the counter \u201chead game.\u201d The strategies that I teach are not head games but observational strategies and are usually received in a comfortable manner by others.<\/p>\n<p>I would estimate that the majority of people do not play head games. However, a woman\u2019s tendency for subtle communications can sometimes mistakenly be identified as a head game.<\/p>\n<p>Most women won\u2019t usually come out and say that they find a guy attractive, for example. Some men take this as a head game and wonder why women can\u2019t just be direct like men.<\/p>\n<p>But there is a difference here. Head games are usually designed to control or manipulate someone\u2019s behavior in a somewhat heartless and careless way.<\/p>\n<p>When a woman communicates in subtleties to a man, she is doing it for survival. Men are aggressive enough with women. If a woman gives a man encouragement to be even more aggressive, it could be a mistake that results in bad consequences. Most women want to check out the guy\u2019s personality first before they give him any clear signals he can act upon.<\/p>\n<p>How can you tell the difference between \u201chead games\u201d and \u201csubtleties.&#8221; Well, there are books written by women instructing women how to play head games with men. Things like \u201cnever be on time\u201d, \u201cnever return a guy\u2019s phone call\u201d, \u201calways make him pay for dinner\u201d, etc. are \u201chead games\u201d which are taught.<\/p>\n<p>These strategies are not situational and are some misinformed woman\u2019s idea of how to control \u201cmen\u201d in general. What they don\u2019t get is that these type of strategies only work on a certain personality type of man.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t confuse these purposeful manipulations that women are taught to do to \u201call\u201d men with subtle communications &#8211; such as a women \u201cnot\u201d telling you she is very attracted to you while she goes out with you any time you ask. This girl isn\u2019t trying to manipulate you she just wants to get to know you better before she decides if she wants to be your girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>In the final analysis, people have personalities and both men and women have different personalities types. Be wary of anyone who gives you advice that says ALL women or ALL men are like this\u2026.blah, blah, blah.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. L.
