how many think this writer is an idiot for this suggestion?

I don't think playing games in relationships is a good idea, it's a good way to hurt someone...

That article is very immature. When you are in a relationship you DON'T make the other person jealous. That is NOT a solid relationship. Why would you even want the person you love to be jealous? These games are not going to make a better relationship.

I completely agree. My b.f would dump me in a hearbeat if I started trying to make him jealous just to get him to pay more attention to me, he'd tell me to go play games with someone else. That's why I hate those advice columns and such because all men and women are different and noone will react to the same situation the same way and you can end up getting yourself screwed over if you're not careful.

Personally I find that article to be very irresponsible, he obviously has a special interest group mentality, raised by parents who are the same. Relationships have become a favorite past time, like playing golf to some people and it sickens me to no end.

The very fabric of our society is being eaten away by these people. And the sad part is, it isn't getting better. As I mentioned in my opening statement, I find that to be a very irresponsible and immature mindset, certainly one doomed to failure.
