I know women and men too, play games in the early stages of a relationship. But shouldn't the games end once your comfortable with each other? Like after knowing each other for a few months?Or does it never end?

I don't think it ever ends. I think they expect you to react in a certain way but you're damned if you do and damned if you don't because they never tell you what the rules are do they?

Game playing isn't for adults. Its not nice and it shows a real lack of imagination on the person's part.
The pace at the start is due to finding out about someone before letting things progress. When you are in a realtionship you should be open and honest with one another, but respect each others privacy and right to hang out with own mates, etc.
Sounds like this person you are seeing thinks too much of the treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen mentality. But it will just end up with resentment and relationship going around in circles. Its also really childish - they sound a bit young.

I believe you need a balance. Playing games can make or break a relationship. As long as you remember to add a touch of sincerity and compassion, playing a few games with each other can't hurt. I think you don't need to stop playing games with your partner at any stage in a relationship. If you do it right, it can keep your love alive and you will never get bored of your partner!

Learn to say, "next!"
If you don't like the games, find someone else. There are a LOT of fish in the sea! It's not like you should ever end up marriying an American woman anyway... ever.
The ugly truth is that more than 65% of marriages will end in divorce. Nearly 3 out of 4 will be initiated by the woman. The man will get raked over in family court. He will lose the house. He will see his kids 2 out of 14 days (if the ex doesn't level unsubstantiated "abuse" claims.) He will be forced to hand over 40-50% of his take-home pay. If he loses his job due to illness or downsizing, the State will toss him in jail. While jailed the arrearage will grow and the state will charge interest. The State will revoke his driver's and professional licenses, make him virtually unemployable.
If you were to take up sky-diving, and the instructor informed you that most of the parachutes were defective, would you take the plunge?
I'll stay single, thank you.

This all depends on the person. Some people never stop playing games and some never start. If you're not into drama then hook up with someone that has the same outlook as you (no games). You'll never develop a meaningful relationship with someone if you're looking for different things. Good luck!

In both situations whether its the man or woman playing games, it never ends until he/she gets what they want. For instance, a certain level of committment, sex, access to credit cards, knowledge of being the best, or if its just as simple as undivided attention. The only problem is that once the games end, everything gets routine and boring.

The truth is that some people just take the piss. If a person persists in doing something even after they are aware that it bothers you then it is clear that they have issues which need addressing and you are better off leaving them to deal with it, go elsewhere. If you care for the person and they know it, then they are just using you and you must have a masochistic streak if you put up with it, relationships are about give and take, and I do not mean you give, and they take.

Games never end, someone is always on top in a relationship, at least that is my experience. Someone is always trying to get the other ones attention. When you meet the right person though, I think the games should stop, at least hopefully.

I agree with mallox, it never ends or at least I dont think it should. Theres allways something to tease or wind your partner up about. Providing its done through interest and fun I think its a good thing. Even after all the time I've been with my better half we enjoy the banter and laughter, but be warned, women minds make them alot sharper than us blokes give em credit for!!!

mind games are attractive because it keeps you in constant minds of the other party. initially, yes, it is exciting... it keeps the whole relationship thing alive. the motive of the mind games should change as couples move to comfortable stage... :)
