"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

The title speaks for itself, has anyone here ever got played by a female? How did you react? How did you cope?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

As a heterosexual male, yes I've been played. But you need to elaborate more on how you were played.

A player is someone who pretends to love someone but has ulterior motives. Strippers are the penultimate female players (pretending to be interested but only caring about money usually) so of course I've been played. I'm not a player myself (pretending to be interested but only care about sex) as I'm too much of a romantic.

You need to be a master detective at solving the mystery of whether a person really loves you or is using you. Everyone must deal with that.

For the past few years, women for the most part could never surprise me because when you read them properly you are always one step ahead. Early on I'll tell them "Do you realize you're falling in love with me?" and I'll tell them exactly how I knew. Later, for example when a 18 month relationship ended it went like this: "Do you think it's time to end it?" She paused. "I'll take that a yes". When men act like they were surprised by a breakup they weren't paying attention. She started checking out months prior.

Yes, by my BPD ex.

Literally got me to buy her things with the promise of "getting back together soon"

As for how I reacted? Took the red pill and didn't look back.

Yes, the girl I loved the first lmfao, met her about 10 years ago and was caught up for roughly 6-7 years. I was so caught up with her even without making out. She gave me several chances to escalate but I wasn't man enough and then she friendzoned me. She lead me on for years, giving mixed signals and giving me hopes that I could f8ck her. I worked out, bettered myself and now I f8cked her best friend, had a fling with her sister (right now, dated in the christmas weeks) and she knows I f8ck around in the whole city.

You guys can imagine this is a great accomplishment for TheGambino after knowing where I come from. But yes I was hooked and she played me, but I played myself too. She's pregnant from a guy that cheats on her.

My ex-wife...

I get 'played' all the time.... if you want to call it that. It seems like every year I find out at least one woman I date I later learn was just 'using' me to make a BF jealous and get him to commit.

Truth is I really don't care... I'm certainly not going to commit. I'm just the dude chicks can fvck until they find a slave.

Other than my ex... no chick has ever taken me for money, because I never give anything without getting something in return.

After arriving at her place for a few days her attitude towards me was unacceptable and I asked to her to take my back to the airport..

My ex left me stranded in the airport overnight while she fvcked my replacement the same night.

Being 'played' makes you more aware and makes you realize the truth behind these games women play indeed.
