1. Macho Impression
One of the love games men play that seem to always come out in the end is the macho game. Does your guy puff up his chest and act like he is completely fearless and that he's Mr. Macho? Truthfully, most guys are not super manly. While they may be into sports and may seem like nothing girly would ever affect them, if you asked your guy to put on makeup and dance around, most likely he would – if he loves you.
2. The Good Enough Now
Does your guy constantly say that you'd be perfect if your changed your hair color? What about your makeup? An outfit? These are mind games girls. You shouldn't ever, ever let your guy dictate exactly what you look like and what you wear. You have a mind girls, use it and kick him to the curb!
Frequently asked questions
3. Pretends to Care about You
When a guy is after something, he most likely will say anything at all to get it. If your boyfriend is after sex, he could say anything from 'I love you' all the way to 'I really care about you'. It is up to you to decipher what is the truth. Does he really love you? Do you think that he is just pretending to care about you? How does he act around you?
4. Spontaneity Game
This is by far one of the worst love games men play with women. Not only is it all about booty calls, but it's actually laziness on the guy's part. Whether he calls you complaining that he misses you and that he really wants to see you or he calls and takes your schedule for granted – it's still rude and happens all of the time.
5. Stringing You along
This love game men play can actually go hand-in-hand with the pretending to care about you. If he is constantly stating that he loves you, that he cares about you but he 'just isn't ready for a relationship', that's a game girls. You don't want to deal with that. You deserve better!
6. Breakup & Makeup Game
I hate, hate, hate this game that men play. The 'let's breakup-and-then-makeup-two-seconds-after-we-breakup' game that is never ending. It's so hard to end this type of relationship and to even be in this type of relationship. My ex used to constantly pull this love game on me – but now that I am in a stable relationship, it's so much better!
7. Vulnerability Game
Finally girls, the last love game that a lot of guys play all has to revolve around vulnerability. Does your boyfriend constantly cling to you? Constantly lets down all of his walls and isolates you from everyone? Does your entire world revolve around him? That's a game girls, a huge game.
While these love games men play with women seem to happen from time to time in every relationship, if you are constantly finding them in your relationship, it might be time to talk to your boyfriend. So, what other love games do you see in your relationship?

Irich: Nice article
Rachel: There's this guy named Aaron, sweetest and funniest guy in the world! He likes me and I like him back. A lot. But according to this article, he's stringing me along. He tells me he loves me and I say it back but that's in text. He doesn't say anything in person like the romantic things in his texts. I have tried to reach out to him but he's always with his friends. We have casual dances and I have waited for him to come to one but he hasn't! I'm hoping for Valentines day that he will come to the dance finally. Or maybe even get me a heart balloon that our school sells every year to put into other people's lockers. It's really something I would love to get. But if he doesn't show me he loves me, I don't think it could ever work out between us. Especially since he is going to a different school next year. I'm just hoping.. Idk. What should I do?
Charlie: I was In a relationship for the last five months with a guy who said he wanted to be with me but wasn't ready for a relationship.. I thought things were getting better until my ex pointed out the guys flaws.. I fell in love with this guy.. My head knows I have been played but how do I get my heart on the same page? I feel like I did something wrong or was'nt good enough.. He broke my heart.. Any advise..
