I don't think the book condones playing games, which is more like acting like a teenager. I'll have it finished this weekend, but nothing I've read so far goes against what I've been doing. And it doesn't seem to condone playing games, acting like you're moving on. I'm not really sure what you all are trying to get me to do, but I think game playing is stupid. If that's what it takes to keep a marriage, I don't want to be in that kind of marriage. I want a partner who values me for who I am. Who values our marriage and our bond. Who is open and honest, like I am open and honest. If I can't be, then I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who don't want to game play either. I'm attractive, highly educated, and I make a decent income. I don't need to waste my time playing pointless games.
