    I hate when my friends say that they want to wait for the guy to call them. Seriously, not a big deal if you pick up a phone. Also hate when guys try to act like jerks because they think that's what girls like. Girls want a nice guy not a macho jacka$$!

    1) The "I'm so beautiful so I'm better than everyone else, and can treat everyone else like crap" game. Having physical beauty doesn't give a woman a license to be arrogant, stuck-up and conceited. Having self cofidence is one thing, but acting like this is quite another. It shows a real lack of class and respect for other people.

    2) Telling white lies and exxagerations to make themselves look more desireable. E.g.: faking that you're going out on dates, or exxagerating about all these swarms of men that suppossedly want you, etc. Not only is this dishonest, but a woman who does this really sends a message that something is wrong with her because if she were desirable she wouldn't have to play this game.

    3) Dropping hints but never saying what you want. Sure, it might take more courage to come right out and say what you want, but it'll almost certainly save a lot of headaches in the long run. That way the guy and the girl don't have to play charades and 20 questions all the time.

    4) Nagging. Too much nagging is a really great way to make your man resent spending time with you. Over time, he'll eventually view you as a behavior policewoman rather than your lover.

    5) The "He has to make the first move" game. We live in the 21st century, and feminists have been complaining for decades about breaking down gender barriers. Women aren't property arrangements where the best swordfighter gets to take her home anymore. What's wrong with calling him first, or talking to him first instead of spending weeks wondering if he likes you, asking other people how to get him to notice you, and riding on this psychological merry-go-round?

    6) The "I have to make him jealous to get him to like me" game. Going around and flirting with other men makes you look slutty, not wholesome. Again, a woman who does something like that sends the message that she's compensating for other shortcomings.

    Hey, don't get mad. You asked :)

    Okay, so men are about the conquest and women are about the chase, right? As a guy I hate it when a woman "doesn't feel I'm chasing her closely enough". In the past I've gotten kisses from girls who "didn't want to give me the wrong idea", but still wanted to dominate my attention. I hate that game the worst b/c all to often it works. I end up wasting time chasing around a piece of *** who just likes to toy with guys. They have no intentions of making anything out of it, they just suffer from a low self esteem and need a guy on their heels to feel like they are worth having. Its pathetic.

    I hate the phone games too - I can't call him until he calls me first, I have to be equally as busy as him, I want to talk to him, but am not going to pick up the phone so he feels punished... Or how about the - well, I don't really like her, but I'll make out with her anyways and see if she thinks it means something. Ha.

    All games bug the hell out of me. I mean, isn't playing games with someone else's heart and emotions the ultimate in disrespect?

    IMO, game players don't deserve a relationship at all (unless it's with another game-player - now that would be some poetic justice).

    The "I'm not interested in you until you're no longer available, in which case I'll stalk you until you pull a PPO out on me". These screwball head games are actually a blessing in disguise, as they are annoying when they begin, but make you thank full that the nuts fell before you were in a serious relationship.
