Her first problem is being depressed over her single status. Who you're with should not define who you are.

This is ironic I was just talking about "games" people play the other day. I think it all comes down to power, what I mean is who has the upper hand, or who likes who more. It is a constant struggle to make sure you do not look stupid or "getting played" I think that drives alot of people to play games. Also what I have experienced is a person always wants what he or she cant have. I have dated alot of girls and I never seem to want the ones I can have I only want the ones I cant. I think your friend did not want to look desperate or a "loser" to have no plans on the weekend. And the fact that this guy can call and have her at his finger tips when ever he wants her pisses her off. In this situation he has more power so to say, so by her saying no he is thinking damn what is she doing that is more important than me? Then he starts to get interested again just by her saying no. I think games are dumb as hell, I dont play them, I like you, you will know it I will tell you straight out.
But I have to say I am 25 and dont play games the thought of a 40 year old still playing games is crazy.

its about perception. she wants to portray herself as having an active social life (which is attractive to other people, usually) and also, given that that guy goes for weeks without without calling her (dont know how far they have gone before this, sexually/emotionally though) she doesnt want to come across like she is so desperate as to be at his beck and call.
she did the right thing in that she should keep him wanting more, but the trick is to give a little at a time, and keep him keen...not slam the door shut in his face, letting their rapport go to hell. what she should have done is say that she has some informal sort of plans to join a group of friends doing something on the weekend (which makes her look social/attractive) and then ask what he had in mind (gives him a chance to express interest, initiate a date, or let him talk about his weekend) then she could arrange to maybe meet him "later on" in the night, or setup something during the week.
anyway thats how id do it
and besides, sugarplum, how can you complain about game playing when you yourself have a 2 day rule?

The Shadow said:shes talking about making a man beg for a date....it obviously works for her
WTF?
WHY do so many people play games?
totally. I hate games.
The sad thing is that everyone sort of plays games to some extent. (Some, like this girl do it worse than others) Its almost like a mating ritual, a dance or something.

hanselthecaretaker said:Wow, she's 40 and still doing this mindgame shit? That's too bad. No wonder so many people out there are cynical, bitter, confused, angry bastards.
But we can't be real with each other, ohh nooo, cuz we'd risk hurting their feelings. Go figure, how ironic.
I scoff at mind games.
This is probably why I don't get laid a lot.
Oh well.
maybe we wont get laid as much, but at least we are not deceitful game-playing morons.

that line comes from a dating book for women called The Rules...which says that a man should not call later than weds night to make a date for the weekend, if he does call really late on a wednesday night then the woman should turn him down just to show him that she has a life and lots of plans even if she does not!!!
some women do follow those rulse....
