Here's a New Game: Its Called NOT Playing One!

No matter how old you get or how mature you think the significant other is, you can never get away from the games. Why is that? If everyone decided to throw in the towel and stop this nonsense, then it would cease to exist. Well this works in theory anyway. Games are and always will be a part of dating. Recently I was asked out to a movie but because it was last minute, I already had plans for the evening and was not able to make it. Being that I was genuinely interested, I asked for a raincheck though. Now, if this was someone I did NOT want to see, I would have just said "sorry I'm busy" and left it at that. Obviously, asking for a raincheck is a sign of interest. The guy's reply to the raincheck: "ill have to think about it lol"

Really? Now the idea of going out to see a movie has been complicated by the initiation of some game. Is that even necessary at all? Now I begin to wonder why so many relationships are quick to fail. No more. Let's see how much farther one can get WITHOUT playing games.
