seriously, sometimes I don't even realize I do it...I don't want to. most all girls do it. is there something psychological and inbred into us that we just seem to have to play mind games/tricks?

maybe you should explain what you are talking about. What exactly do you think you mean when you say mind games? Are you saying you deliberately decieve/manipulate people? Do you think that everyone does that?
I also have a problem with your suggestion that all girls have a mental disorder. Perhaps you could take a look at the roots of your own behaviour - sounds like there may be a bit of anti-feminine thinking going on there?
You know, everyone has their own self interests going on and we don't necessarily disclose our private thoughts to all the people all the time - we have to protect ourselves for starters. That is not a mind game. That is just interacting; which happens on many levels. Learning how to be intimate and vulnerable with someone and therefore able to be completely honest about who you are as well as what you think, is not something that most of us jump right into easily. That is actualy healthy, not a disorder.
good luck

I think a big reason why women play "mind games," or "hard to get," or whatever you want to call it is so they a.) can keep dating or flirting with someone light and fun and b.) don't come off as sluts - because, let's face it, we all basically know that we want to hop on the other person right away; but, in your average, polite social arena that wouldn't be acceptable.

i think the girls do it just to see if they can get away with it and most of the time guys let them get away with it and they just keep on doing it and sometimes they get caught and apologize and then do it again to other guys, so i guess you are right it is a sort of mental disorder if you like to put in that way.

Yes but that doesn't make you a bad person.
