I see this in profiles all the time "not into game playing" does anybody have a idea what this means? Maybe if I knew what it means I could avoid it.

It means "I've been hurt and I'm vulnerable and I'm too dumb to realize that putting this information into a profile actually makes me more of a target for game players and abusers who are slick enough to perceive what easy prey I am going to be."

I don't know if men put that there or not, but, seems to be the ladies use it for the statement "If you talk to me, you cannot talk to any other ladies. One word to me means we are gonna get married and you better act like it!!!!"

What kinda games are we talking about ? But seriously don't we all play games in a way,like a chess game I make a move you make a move.And what about the fun of the chase.Women aren't the only ones who write "not into games" so I do like they ask and move on to the next one.My thought is we've probably all been hurt at some point in our relationships. And I agree that you probably going to draw the game players to you by putting it out there.

I have not dated enough to really know, but I have observed some of my friends and the way they deal with dates/boyfriends/girlfriends, etc., and it made me glad that I don't date. It is all about having the upper hand in the relationship. I have seen people going through power struggles that would exhaust me; second-guessing each other; spying on each other. Game-playing implies a certain lack of trust and respect. I am not certain what people do get out of it.
