Hey Orion, or anyone really. How come when I start to completely ignore a woman who’s treating me like shit, they get ultra angry and pissy and start giving me the stinkeye?
And this has surprisingly actually turned out to be a good thread. [/quote]
Ome of two reasons:
- She is a drama queen and feeds off of your emotion. As long as she gets attention she really does not care what kind so she ramps up the effort to get it.
That bleeds into number
- you are making her all giddy and stuff and she is shittesting you like mad. Unfortunately if that gets to you, you lose. By not letting it get to you you win. In that case she should be wet as October right now.
So, if a woman treats you like shit there can be two reason either she is an ass or she wants you and since you already failed the smaller ones it is an attempt to finally get you to act like a man.
I would find out which one it is. [/quote]
But on the other hand, what does it matter? She’s a jerk and that’s not going to change. If you like the idea of a lousy, game-playing relationship, then she is possibly your own special shit-testing girl.
If, on the other hand, it’s a pleasant, rewarding relationship you’d prefer, you should move on. What Orion is describing above is a recipe for disaster. Playing games like the above will make you hate the women you’re with (perhaps justifiably so) and will ultimately inform the kind of women you seek, find, and make wet as October. You will increasingly become bitter and cynical and when you find partners that complement you, they will confirm your bitterness and cynicism in an unending cycle of reciprocal shit-testing (because isn’t that what Orion is suggesting you do right back to her? a shitty little game to manipulate her?).[/quote]
You dont get it.
There is no non game playing relationship with a woman.

I think there are dynamics in all new relationships that can look like game-playing. For example, when I’ve felt that I am more invested in my relationship than my guy is I’ve had a tendency to retreat a bit. I don’t want to put pressure on him to conform to my wants (because I don’t want a man I’ve had to foist myself upon). He’s been the one to pull back and wait at times, as well. That’s not games though. These things prompt conversations that are honest (“I’m afraid I’m foisting myself on you”) and seek the wellbeing of all concerned. So far for us they’ve always led to an increase in intimacy or commitment.
An unhealthy relationship skews healthy dynamics, such as the negotiation of needs/commitment or sexual intimacy.

See, shittests a completely instinctive feature in a woman.
You do it, whether you know it or dont.
Experiment with this, since shittests are either social dominance or congruence tests throw a few out in a social situation and see how your emotional state3 changes depending on how he reacts.
Try to lead a man, or fetch something for you, try to make him stand or sit where you want him to.
