5 Behaviors Men Display When They Are Playing Mind Games With You


It is always difficult to know when a man is playing mind games with you, but as you begin to study his behaviour and attitude towards you, you start knowing if he is serious or just playing mind games with you.

It's not until someone directly lies or try to manipulate you that you know he is playing mind games.

When you are in a relationship with someone who tries to play mind games with you, you will become confused, become unsure of yourself and even give them control over you.

But the moment you start knowing the signs to look for in their habits and behaviors towards you, it will become easier to know his true intentions.

There are certain behaviors that a man playing mind games with you will display.

In this post, I will talk about five signs you need to watch out for in a man to be able to determine his true intentions.


1. He has a hot and cold behavior

One day, he texts you throughout the day and makes you feel like you are the best thing that ever happened to him and the next day, he doesn't text you and makes you feel like you are nothing to him.

You will become confused and begin to wonder if it was intentional. The truth is that he did it intentionally.

This type of behavior will make you wonder if you did something wrong and make you want his attention more.

He has put you in a situation where you are not certain about what is going on and this will give him the opportunity to control the relationship the way he likes.

A man who truly loves you will be consistent in his actions. He will not make you wonder if he truly cares about you or just playing mind games.

2. He ignores you

Being ignored by someone can result in a situation where the brain makes you feel like someone hurt you physically. He is ignoring you because he wants you to be anxious and want his attention desperately.

This is a tactic people who play mind games use to punish people without saying a word.

His attitude towards you will make you wonder if he sees you as someone important in his life. And when you apologize for doing nothing wrong, he will pull you back by showing attention.

He is trying to manipulate you emotionally so that you will not want to upset him again.

A good partner will always respect you and will always communicate instead of ignoring you.


3. He is always the victim

When there is disagreement between the two of you, he always finds a way to make it look like he is the one who is the victim. It doesn't matter if he is the one who is at fault, he ends up being the victim and will twist everything to make you believe you are at fault.

If he does something bad and you let him know about it, he might give excuses and tell you how "things have been a little difficult for him lately." So instead of him to try changing his attitude, you are the one begging him.

This is one of the tactic he is using to manipulate you. He is always the victim and no matter the situation, you are always at fault.

A man who values you will take responsibility and will always be accountable for his actions. Not looking for excuses and putting the blame on you every time.

4. He makes you lose confidence

When partners truly love each other, they will feel safe with each other, they will value each other and always appreciate each other.

A man playing mind games will never love you, he will not value you, he will make you feel unsafe and he will make you lose your confidence.

He might even tell you how someone is better than you or show you some affection so you can stick around him but deep down, you know you are not safe around him.

At some point in time, you will begin to lose confidence, wondering what you need to do to be a "better person" for him. But one thing you have to know is that someone who truly loves you will value you and never make you lose your confidence.

5. He discourage you from seeing your friends and family

Slowly, he will start discouraging you from spending time with your loved ones. He might tell you your friends are not good for you or he becomes angry when you are with your family.

As time goes by, you will begin to realize that you are no longer spending time with your loved ones and he becomes the only person that matter in your life.

Someone who loves you will never discourage you from spending time with your loves ones. They will never put you in a situation where you have to choose between them and your family or friends.
