Hello. I have a question. Its been roughly a year now that i broke up with my ex. I can say im okay now and ready to move on. Its time for me to get back into the game. I started flirting with some girls and its pretty exciting! My friend said that i should experience been a player like him.
He has been with lots of women just to have a good time and nothing serious. After he has got a women in bed, he doesnt contact them anymore after. He told me maybe i would like being a player. I was wondering if there is anything wrong with that and if i should test out this kind of lifestyle?
Hmmm i guess im getting this all wrong. What is the difference between a player and a guy that dates for fun and knows how to impress a woman?
I definitely would like a girl that is committed but i guess i wouldnt mind sleeping with a girl with no commitment as long as its mutual and they arent looking for anything serious at all. How about protection? That can prevent pregnancy and stds.
Eventually i would want to settle down and find love but i dont know if i can sleep with a woman and not have feelings for her afterwards i just might end up with a heartbreak.
Speaking of threesomes, my ex was a twin and i had a threesome with her and her sister. Caused lots of problems afterwards but at first we thought it was a good idea. >_<
Protection isn't 100% against pregnancy or STDs, so if you're counting on that you're going to get burned sooner or later if you decide to sleep around.
What's the difference between a player and a guy that dates for fun? Sex. It's that simple. A player is only looking for sex, with as many girls as possible. Dating for fun can involve sex but usually because both parties are interested, not because one party just wants another notch on his bed post.
If you want to find love one day, what do you think your future wife will think if you decide to do this? Do you think she'll be impressed that you had sex with girls and then never called, never cared what happened to them? Most girls don't find that an attractive quality in a man.
Technically, I said him and I would like girls sleeping with us and not calling back. I don't have any emotional problem so I can take the pain (or pleasure depending how you see it ). I wouldn't do it to other girls though, that's not who I am.
Btw, you had a threesome? Now THAT'S a story I want to hear.
I can't tell you the threesome story unless I see some ID.
I can tell you that it was a very bad idea, both guys (yes, two guys) were dating sisters and I also had a boyfriend. The two sisters wanted to beat the crap out of me, my boyfriend did beat the crap out of me.
I'm still friends with both the guys. We were young, stupid and realized that we had made a huge mistake but that our friendship was more important that any of that.
A player is calculating and smooth, a trickster with no morals or heart.
A guy that just wants to date and have his fun, just as smooth, but has the heart to share his intentions. More upfront than a player.
A player is someone who has absolutely no concern for the women or man that he/she "plays" other then to have sex. A player is dishonest and will say and do whatever it takes to get to the goal, often causing emotional damage to the victim of the "game" and then as your friend does - no longer contacts them.
Dating for fun is all about being honest and upfront. You let the woman or man know that you are not interested in anything serious and you do not try and hide your intentions with lies and smooth talk.
There are plenty of women out there who are looking for this sort of dating. Not all women want or are ready to commit. There's no real point in targeting a women and possibly breaking er heart when you could find a woman who would not want a serious thing.
All that being a player does is demoralize you and make you less of a person as well as cause unnecessary pain.
What is the difference between a player and a guy that dates for fun and knows how to impress a woman?
You have everyone definition of a player, but a guy who dates for fun isn't looking to impress a female, but wants her to enjoy her time together, and isn't really going to pressure her for his own needs. Thats what impresses most females, allowing her to be comfortable, and have fun. Now thats not to say that something more won't happen, but it will be without lies and deception, and be by mutual consent.
Sexual attachments cloud the whole scenario though, as its mistaken by many as the real thing, but the difference is lust wears off, and love grows. It also distracts you from honest expressions, and brings a lot of high expectations which leads to bad decisions, and your example of your own experience is a good example of that.

Sex complicates feelings but when the lust is gone, whats left.

The problem is nothing works all the time, Maybe your chances with protection, is better with, than without, but it only takes one failure to change your whole life.

Then make sure you know enough facts about her so you will be confident she is a good risk. That takes time, and paying attention to the facts, and not just wishful thinking, or false hope.
I think all guys would like the option of uncommitted free sex, but nothing is really free, and there is always a price to pay. Even for a player. If you can't pay don't play.
Staying within the bounds of good behavior, that you define for yourself, is what makes you a good healthy human, or a zip darn fool.
There are always consequences, or blessings for your actions, so give it thought before you do it.
Why does it have to be either or? How about going out and having fun, dating a little and meeting people, you never know, you may eventually meet someone special along the way. Please don't be player - remember how hurt you were when someone disgarded your emotions? Well, that could very well be how youll leave some of your ''conquests'' feeling!
Did anyone watch Friends before? Joey lives a life with no commitment, sleep with the girls than its over the next morning and he is happy with his way of life. Same thing happens with my friend which he claims to be a "player".
He has slept with so many girls he lost count so he says and whenever me and him hang out there are always tons of girls around him. Anyways yah i have made a decision not to live this way. I would rather have a special someone and love.
Its just its been so long since i slept with someone i mean over a year, sometimes i dont think with my head and think with urges.
What I have found to be true about players, they are often the most lonesome people on the planet. Not only does it ruin your perception of people, it ruins how others look at you. Think of it this way.
How do you look at a girl who has only had sex with 3 guys in her life? Now, how do you look at the girl who has had sex with 35 guys in her life?
Sadly, I'm the second of the two girls you mentioned.
TV isn't reality, but even then, Joey isn't as much a player as he is a failure at relationships. Watch the show, he wants to find someone special but keeps ruining his chances because he jumps into bed with every girl he meets.
As for your friend, he may have women surrounding him, but are any of them someone you'd take home to meet your family?
I think you made the right decision. One day you'll find someone great, get married, have a couple of kids and your friend (if he hasn't died form Aids) will still be all alone.
