Why do pisces men like to play games with women?

Why Pisces Men Play Mind Games with Women

Pisces men may play mind games to test emotional boundaries or because they feel insecure. They often seek deep connection but may also struggle with commitment. Understanding their emotional complexity can reveal their true intentions and help navigate relationships more effectively.

I thought he disappeared? Why did he come back to play mind games with me? is he bored?
I have a feeling he is seeing someone else

i dated a Pisces once, he was a cheater and played a lot of mind games and used a lot of emotional manipulation, he LOVED to see me cry. It is because of him that i can spot a liar from a mile away now...

My Pisces guy friend straight up says sleeping with a woman is a game for him and once he's "scored" he loses interest and doesn't want to have to talk to her anymore. He's in his mid twenties. I also know a loyal married Pisces man.

I think mine is doing the emo manipulation and mind games atm. Since he said he's falling in love with me and I had to be honest and say I'm not quite there but not far behind, you've got me I'm not going anywhere. He's been funny and pulled back. Level of communication has dipped and not spending much time together Etc.

My ex who was also a Pisces was loyal and never cheated, but was prone to lying about silly things and emo manipulation was a fav game of his.

Have you considered he's confused?

Ask him directly why πŸ™‚

Confused, about what?

You know him. We sometimes can be overwhelmed by feelings/emotions.

I don't know the guy but you do. You've spent time with him. But feeling confused is a big thing. It makes you think. So maybe ask him what's on his mind.

would that cause him to send me texts and not respond when I do and to disappear and to reappear. I havent initiated contact with him. he is the one to text me first. We went our separate ways because he didnt know what he wanted and seemed inconsistent
Or does he want to make sure I dont move on?

That would be cruel to me as a Pisces. I couldn't do that. But I know Aries can. Maybe if someone could look at his chart for you they could advise further.

People disappear for numerous of reasons. Currently I know that feeling. Which leaves unanswered questions

Personally I don't like being ignored so. I would say to you don't reply. He'll either get bored and stop or he'll have to change what he's doing.

What is it you want from him?

Its rude to ignore a persons messages i guess i dont know what he wants from me

Ask yourself why do you respond when you have learned he will ignore you?

It doesn't do anyones self esteem any good to be ignored. Sure, we get curious. Part of me wonders if you still have feelings for him?

I tried moving on this might have brought the feels up.
Maybe he knows this and thats why he ignores me. Maybe hes trying to hurt me

Lol that won't work with me I see that shit a mile off.

I told him I have feelings but I'm not quite there, as in falling in love just yet. Behaving like this has me going in the opposite direction. I will not chase someone that shows no signs of interest, actions speak louder than words.

In my experience Pisces men are flakes. I have noticed that they can only have "one love" and until they truly move on from that person (even if the person is continents away), they can't really take anyone else serious. I also know that Pisces men will put up with a lot of crap from that one love that they have. Everyone else is disposable.

True, and that's the reason people get hurt. Lots of people somehow find it great to take advantage of others, even those who love them. Evil. Unfortunately the ones that take a lot of shit are their victims.

Sounds to me like you enjoy playing, since you acknowledge he's not treating you right, while you continue to give him attention.

that means you are just playing him for whatever attention you can get from him

A Pisces is going to realize from jump street what your intentions are .... so, he likely realized immediately that you are shallow enough to respond to superficial sentiment ... so, as a typical Pisces, he'll entertain himself with a dumbass when he's bored.

It's all tit for tat .... so, why are you bitching? ... other than you feel like being a bitch?

Pisces likes to play mind games, I deal with same situation dating a Pisces guy, they are liar, manipulator. He ignore my text then one day disappear without any contact only to reappear back like nothing happen. I ignore and stop all contacts with him which make him mad and when he saw me with one of guy friend, He start to blasting my inbox with messages. They just want nothing but attention don't give it to them, they just play games and when they get bored they will disappear

but then again, i'm pro-ghosting so i'm confused why this is an issue

Your type of manipulation is Earthy...lmao

Everyone manipulates, we just all have different avenues of focus.

Water signs definitely have more of a tendency towards the emotional type, since that is their strength.

Your brand might be more of the guilt-tripping... Virgoean type. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

And criticizing πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸΌ

far as i'm concerned, crying wolf involves guilt-tripping too

crying wolf, hidden cthulhu

I remember that story. You went out of your way for him and took him seriously, and even had a door knocked down, right? He was being very manipulative. Using true feelings to screw with you, I think.

yes and i got so hurt that i avoided him

i was recently hospitalized for an ear problem and he got worried and sent me a message and i did reply politely BUT curtly so that the convo won't be for long

just don't want that shit to happen again

well i know of a pisces guy we kind of flirted in the past but we were mostly like friends , he went through some breakup because his gf cheated on him or something. we talked about it and i asked if he was okay. he messaged me and i said i'm open to talk, but he knows im in a relationship and he keeps bringing up sexual topics so i turned him down. yesterday he messaged me saying hi and i asked how he was and he was all like "the only reason i messaged you earlier was because i was horny". i deleted and blocked him, it feels good.

but now i feel guilty

I thought the one whose asshole are the one who had a bad tgought thinking a man who said he would do a suicide must be a lie and it must be manipulation.

i didn't assume he was manipulating. in fact, i believed him and had his door broken down coz it was locked from the inside. i'm not really angry, i'm mostly hurt. doesn't matter now, that's already happened.

This is so true! I had a fling with a pisces sun, cancer moon man and he was completely closed off to anyone but his ex. From my experience I find that both pisces and cancers get fixated on one person, even if the relationship is dead and gone, and even if you're the better option.

There's no bigger turnoff IMO than someone who can't let go of a failed relationship. Nothing like feeling like a sloppy second.

Sometimes it's best to crush these types if they keep playing games. Just best him out and he'll come crawling back ... But at that point do you even want him anymore? Who wants someone that insecure?
