i am wondering, do men and women have opposite views of what "games" are? i am sure that most men label "games" as sociological. women label games as? of course the same! and yet we do still do not see eye to eye. it is all about communication. i have chatted with a gal or two recently and they have assured me that i am right. it is sociological. socio= us, logical=anything a woman disagrees with. LOL if a woman complains that he hasn't called her, logic implies it isn't time!!! if a man complains that he has spent innordinate amounts of money on a gal and yet, no sex! did he say i love you? no!!! hes a fool! and after all, so is she. thats the game. the irony of the game is that as we get older, and all the games have been played on us, we are labeled cynics and losers. " it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all". go love someone. it hurts so good. what have you lost? nada! what have you gained? if ya lucky, a little bit of wisdom. we be jammin

I've gained the knowledge that people need to get to know each other voice to voice and face to face before one knows what that person really is like. Then, to know who they really ARE means spending time in each other's homes.
Games-many people play them.It is unfortunate that some have to waste time getting past go.
(not sex)

Not everyone plays games. If I think I guy is playing games, I just move on. NEXT. Life is too short to waste on immature guys; I would much rather date a MAN. You're never going to find true love if you're playing games. You have to be honest and be yourself, so that the other person can love you for who you are.

The only really really is here and now. When that is gone, it is lost forever.

Nothing worse then being old and on yer deathbed sayin, "Shoot, why didn't I get in the game?" far better to be sayin, "Wow!, woulndn't that a part"

JJ if ya find yerself cynical and sour, yer probably gonna be cynical and sour until you decide ta get yerself better. You can't make other people get happy. Might as well go kick it up with the fun folks then tryin ta pull one sour puss outta the swamp. Just as like instead a you him out, he pull you in.

Games or the perception of them ..............as far of the cyberworld goes has been blurred. The long distance thing has complicated the matter.

Some play a game..........others feel as though they have been played.

I've heard a lot of talk in the past about this supposed "game playing". Okay, call me stoopid, call me naive, but the fact of the matter is...

...I wouldn't know how to play the kind of games everyone's talking about if you PAID me to...just not wired that way! So I guess I'll forever be in the dark about this topic. So be it, suits me fine. Bottom line is...

...I don't play games. Because I don't know how to. (And wouldn't want to even if I DID know!)

Life is a game...with rules...Players make up the rules as they go.... Motive is everything..

after having said that...

The only really really is here and now. When that is gone, it is lost forever.

I guess I don't really understand the payoff of playing a game on someone. at least to me. If it's to waste someone's times, but stoke my own ego, shoot that's still a waste of my time too.

I like games, Trivial Pursuit is probably my favorite, but Scrabble is good too.

i figured i would bump this on back up. Diamond Rain has previously commented that he enjoyed the games and was wondering what all the whinning is about. logically the games should be enjoyed by each participant. perhaps the drama is the part that is disruptive to the game? the drama surely must be the part that creates the most conflict. is the emotional energy the very thing a woman pursues in the drama stage? i have been told that homosexuals tend to be overly dramatic. perhaps that is the main reason that there are no homos in my circle? LOL i don't beleive there is any prejudice strictly because of the homosexuality, i think its moreso the drama LOL i am drifting away from the topic! how do we endure the games to acheive what we seek? the games are so deeply engrained in our society that we cannot always get what we want without playing them even a little. communication and compromise have not worked for me. perhaps there is no way around it? the compromise part may have to extend much further than i am comfortable with. but as a buddy of mine has pointed out , even in the game of life the end will justify the means but ya just won't be as happy as you want. i don't want to be alone, love feels too good to let it go. we be jammin

Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah

All the games people play now
every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say, yeah
never saying what they mean.

First you whine away your hours
in your concrete towers
Soon you'll be covered up with flowers
in the back of a black limousine.

People walking up to you
singing glory hallelujah
Then thy try to sock it to you, oh
in the name of the Lord

Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

Oh the games people play now
every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say, yeah
never saying what they mean.

And they teach you how to meditate
read up your horoscope and change your faith
and furthermore to hell with hate
Come on and give me some more, and more, and more.

Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

First your're giving up your sanity
turn your back on humanity, yeah
and you don't give a damn, a damn, a damn

Oh
Na na na Na na na Na na
Na na na Na na na Na na
Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

Talking bout you and me, yeah
and the games people play.

...........WILLOW..........I feel like for some it would be. It would be a way of getting what they wanted when they wanted it.........and they would have no conscience about it.

games are modeled after real life... so sometimes ...real life... becomes a game...

and sometimes...
