Sometimes women tend to deliberately try to make the men they're with jealous. This can be done for a number of reasons....to get more attention, to make him spend more time with you, etc. I'm just wondering, isn't this considered playing games? Do men really respond to this, and isn't it possible that it could backfire? When is introducing a little jealousy in the relationship a good idea, and when is it a stupid one?

Jealousy occurs when people feel insecure in a relationship. I just can't see any gain in making your boyfriend/husband feel/suspect that he cannot trust you.

I really think that it is playing a game sort of. But if you do it right it can help your relationship. I think that a guy would respond pretty quickly if you are even noticing another guy, if he is that into you. If he isn't he wouldn't say anything about it. Course there is the chance of anything back firing on you. But as I repeat you have to know when and how to do it. I've read in cosmo that the best way to introduce a lil jealousy is when has been scoping out other women quite often. Then turn the tables on him and do it to some random guy, say how nice the other guy's eyes or butt are. Even a good smile comment sets your guy's antenna off that you are scoping out someone that isn't him. So he'll stay closer and pay more attention to you. I know guys say they don't like games, but from what I read in Cosmo, a few guys say they actually love freaking their gf's out by looking at other women. Because they know they can get a rise out of us each time if they mention another woman. So just turn the tables, see how he feels.

if you care about somebody why intentionally try and inflict pain on them or make them angry. You dont add jealousy to a relationship just to see what happens it silly. Yes men do it to but we do it for pride (we can be pretty dumb sometimes) where as women do it to hurt the other person. neither is right in a relationship i feel

in my experiance it will backfire on her more than not. a time or two i felt like i was being played with and i fell into the games and spent more time with her, crowded her and thats what she wanted. most times tho i dont buy into the games and just let her know, i am here for her, no other girl and if she doesnt liek it then she can find someone who will play her games. i personally hate the games girls play, they annoy me and piss me off, i think if you are in a relatiosnship and its real, you dont need games

its is a game and it will back fire when I was young I use to fall for that now I am wiser and I will leave a women when they start to play those games don't have time for it. If he is a little boy with less secure emotions then yeah it will work but a grown man NO

A relationship is not a game. Communication is the key. If there is a problem... Talk about it. DON"T play games

Kinda childish to me. Would you want your dude trying to make you jealous all the time? Ask your self if you would like him doing everything you just asked to you. Doesnt really make for a trusting relationship.

Be careful at this game the risk being that you might be out gamed.... we're not that dumb you know. If you really want more attention, give him some and you'll get loads back....no need for 'games'... it confuses everything. Good luck.
