If everything is laid out on the table so quickly, we feel like we haven't earned it, we don't feel special. If we have to work at putting together a Game, and it ends up winning this person's affection, we've earned someone we would have otherwise thought was above our level. A bad boy is more attractive than a "nice guy" persona because we don't want affection if it's given away so easily. <br />It's so damn boring to have everything laid out in the open from day one. For those people who think there's no game, I wonder why they don't talk about exes, experiences with death, and entire childhood history on the first date. People need to earn each other's trust, or you've rendered trust itself totally worthless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
