Hi Amber Rose

I think that what you are talking about happens with men who know the dating game. I guess you can call it mind games, especially they are faking interest, but otherwise, to be fair, it's something that men from most cultures do, I would surmise. It's quite common here in the First World.

This is a classic power struggle, and it appeals to a women's sense of curiousity on the basis of "she loves me, she loves me not" kind of thing.
