5 Sure-Fire Ways to Spot a Player:

The first step to spotting one is to decide you will keep your eyes open, pay attention to the signals and believe what you see. Players get away with their actions because we let them and choose to disregard all the red flags they send up, so decide for yourself that you will spot him early in the relationship and you have won half the battle. Follow these tips for recognizing him, and as soon as you do, run the other way.

1. A player gives off lots of body language if you know what to look for. You know how guys look when they are out to pick up girls; the typical guy will puff up, stand up straight and strut his stuff with an open and honest air. Not so the player. He will roll his shoulders forward, strut with a swagger, and often roll his head to the side looking at the room sideways, at an angle. He will always check himself out in any mirror that is around. If he has his eyes on your, he will often face you and stand with his legs wide open, sometimes with his thumbs looped in his front belt loops and his fingers splayed out pointing toward his package. He will often have a smirk on his face and a smile with rolled up lips. One big key to that smile is that his eyes are not smiling along with the rest of his face; there are no crinkled up smile lines around his eyes when his lips are smiling. This man is a deadly player, so pay attention to that look and disappear.

2. The player will often have on lots of jewelry, carry an expensive cell phone, and have his nails and toenails done. This man loves himself too much and there won't be any room for sincerely loving you.

3. Sociologists have studied dating and mating behavior for decades, and the normal man out trying to meet girls for all the right reasons will have a particular body language code that signals he is a good guy. The player will not follow that code. The real bad boy will stare at you too long instead of looking then glancing away and looking back like a normal guy would.

4. The player will come up to you and immediately get too close, leaning in on your physical space. He will keep his posture rigid, and will not mimic your movements, which is called "mirroring" in dating body language. The man who does not mirror your movements is not interested in you as a person, so walk away from any man giving you these danger signals.

5. Players won't follow the normal patterns of getting your number and asking you out. He will call you at unpredictable times or tell you to call him. He will disappear and reappear, not caring about how you feel. He will come up with excuses that don't seem right or just make things up. For instance, a guy just told me that the earthquake in China had interrupted his internet service and that is why I have not heard from him: HELLO! I was not born yesterday, and the earthquake in China does not have any effect on the world wide web.

Men who have bad intentions will give you lots of clues if you are just prepared to pay attention to them and accept what you see. Pay attention to what he says, not what he does, and you can protect yourself from all the real bad boys out there. - Kerry Gray, the Love Doctor at Don't Date Him Girl

no shit, all of those descriptions sound like a scorpio male; especially the infamous scorpio stare #3

I think I know this guy! lol!!!

That's not a player. Thats a lout.
A player will always be one step ahead of you. Will anticipate you.
Has studied female behavior to tried and tested overtures. Will not try what he can't have and only hunts for easy pickings.

That's not what a player is! That is what a show off is with lots of attitude problems and issues!

A player will approach you in a non threatening way ( if in a club) or present himself as the good boy. He will make you feel relaxed and safe open up to him like you knew him from a previous life. Then when he extends his hand and ask you to follow him to the bedroom you will happily follow and won't care for tomorrow.

He can be playful, social, the life of the party or just plain sexual and serious. He might have an alpha male body language or attitude or come across as a nice gentleman. He is just seductive.

yep muthf99kers are wolves in sheep's clothing, say what you 'need' to hear and do what you 'need' to see. they tend to look for vulnerable women or women they think will be easy prey. if you take too much effort or actually have boundaries, they will get tired and move along...however for the sociopathic player, he will hound you if you're a big challenge for him bc his aim is to conquer strong women

He will always check himself out in any mirror that is around.- absolutely not. He's in the best attention attracting costume possible for YOU. Once he's out n about, doing such a thing is a liability.
And #2...nope. hunting isn't about the best "lures" vs the best strategy. A "player" will be well put together..neither relying too hard on chic nor too far in outright defiance of it.
Don't assume a player isn't immensely intelligent....

the thing is player ARE immensely intelligent, their game is psychology

I disagree.
All they are is greedy.
