Why do women play games?
Here's the story (abridged version):
My wife just rang me at work to ask if I want to go to a party this weekend. I said not particularly, to which she immediately replied that she was going anyway. Stunned by the aggressiveness of her response, I say nothing until she asks me if I was ever going to ask her if she wanted to go and complains that I always have to be in control of everything. I say that I was never given the opportunity to ask her as straight after I answered her question I was told that she was going regardless. She then said that it didn't matter as she didn't want to go anyway as she'd be too tired (we're spending the whole day at the community fair that day).
So why did she ask me if I wanted to go? We spent about 10 minutes arguing over a hypothetical situation that wasn't even important to her. I feel like she phoned me in order to set me up and start a fight over nothing.
Why do women feel the need to play mind games like this?
