The Player's Game

First rule:  
Never reveal your true intentions when you're reeling in your prey.
Keep a good poker face as you keep your cards close to your chest,
Don't show anything about you, but keep them wanting more.
 
Second rule:  
Be cool, be aloof never show your true feelings even if she asks why you
treat her that way because 'she'll never get why' or 'she is just overreacting like usual'.
Then brush it off and pretend she's being a drama queen and kiss her goodnight.
 
Third rule:  
When she cries don't hug her or treat her like everything is going to be alright because in reality they know it won't and hugging her will only lead her on and keep her guessing till she comes to her senses.
Keep her at a distance, never call her first since she's gotta call you first.
Turn off your phone and if someone calls its a 'friend'.
You make the rules as you go and she must follow or otherwise she'll get dropped like the rest since she ain't special.
 
Final Rule:
Do everything you can before you drop her to hit that and manipulate with her mind till she falls in love, drive her crazy, make her suffer, and have her beg until she can't even comprehend that it is over and you got yourself another girl.
Hurt her in the worst way, make her think you were the one when that was just bullshit.
Then repeat with the next once you get bored.
 
Ladies:
Follow him blindly like you're a sheep following the Shepard.
Listen to all of his bullshit like that text you sent he said he never got or that bitch he lied about or that time he lied about where he went.
Believe it all because you wanna stay with him and stick it out to the very end,
Trust his judgement not yours because he's smarter than you.
He'll still be here even if you're baring his child,
He'll change his ways just for you because you're different.
He really did dump the other woman for you.
Keep rethinking those thoughts over and over till you can live with them, feign a smile everyday because he doesn't make you really smile anymore.
Be the perfect image of a doting and loving person until the smoke and mirrors have cleared and you can see their reflection.
 
Revenge:
Now you're hurt and want to beat the living hell outta him,
You want to make him suffer like the way you did everyday when you had to wipe your own tears away every time he stood there and made you cry or the times
you cooked his meals for him and he came home late smelling like her or the times  
when he promised you he'd make time for you, but was suddenly busy at the last minute.
It would be so easy to just run up on him and swing that bat upside his head,
It would be so damn easy to take a gun and kill him and his side chick,  
But it ain't worth it.
Leaving him knowing you got your pride, joy, and love intact is worth it.
Keeping him at a distance as he watches you walk out as you could've been the best thing in his life is the best damn revenge. And in the end you get the last laugh.
While he's kicking rocks, singing the blues as he's crying about missing you that's when you can put your hand up in his face and say bye, you ain't worth my time.
And that's how you play the players game.
