When we are talking about players we are talking about people who play the field when it comes to relationships whether they be male or female. Yeah there are female players too. The vast majority of players make up the male population. In this article I will try to give you tips of how to recognize them.

They can be romantic

Players are con artists in a way they resemble romantics cause they can be very sweet and use romantic tactics on the people they are seeing. You can say they are good actors except its not really an act they are very romantic. It comes very natural for them to be romantic cause they are. They don't however wear their hearts on their sleeve like romantics do. Romantics can be hurt where players usually cannot be hurt cause they are not serious about any one relationship.

They are very likable

Its hard not to like them. They can be very persuasive and they normally had many relationships in the past. Even after they are gone you will have fond memories of them.

Players cannot be controlled

If you think you will land a player and make him yours you will be sadly mistaken. If you really start getting serious and demand a commitment from them they will be gone. You will not be able to tie them down. Once you try they will leave.

They can be very convincing

They will tell you that they love you and you only but that is further from the truth. They can convince you that they are faithful and do not cheat. They don't really like getting too close or making commitments. They will try to convince you that every thing is kool and make promises of commitment down the road.

When it comes to commitment

It not that can't make commitments its just that they know they won't be able to keep them. So they refrain from committing. They enjoy playing the field too much. If they were to make a commitment they know they would not be able to keep it. They don't want anyone they have been seeing to think bad of them so they won't allow themselves to be put into that situation.

They love to flirt

Interesting how similar the description is to the behaviour of someone who has narcissitic personality disorder, or antisocial personality disorder (sociopath)... a little disturbing really, to think that so many men in western culture fit this description...

Good article. While these are common sense, some people don't recognize these things when they are blinded by their feelings for someone. You did a good job. :-)
