March 3 Lecture

Today's class was so interesting! It was interesting to me because i never thought about how people play games in relationships or how destructive or constructive those games can be. Today's class was almost like a therapy session for me because i thought about all the things i've done or  am doing in my relationship right now. The part that really made me think was when we discussed destructive games like testing them. I found out that i tend to test my boyfriend and don't really know that i do it. But we talked about how when we test out mate and don't get the results that we thought would be evident or when they don't realize what we are trying to get them to do or understand the person testing them always ends up upset, mad, or just frustrated at their mate which only causes problems. i told myself at the end of class that i wasn't going to try and play those games anymore because of how bad they could be in a relationship. 

Having this information will help me in the long run because i'll be able to spot when i am playing games or when someone else is playing games and i have to tools to break those games and help others break games that they or someone else is playing.
