You see, ladies? THIS is why men think you're absolutely insane.

[artanis_neravar]

The disturbing thing? As much as I know plenty of women who wouldn't play these kind of games, the kind of "Walk off ranting then say 'OMG, you should have followed me!" mindf*** games, I know just as many women who would, and do.

The wierd thing is, men don't do that, or at least, I've literally never heard of a man doing that. Every other crappy relationship based action, men can be guilty of just as much as women, and vise versa, but this one thing is something that seems almost exclusively female. Why is that, I wonder?

Then again, I'm sure males have a particular relationship douche move that females almost completely don't do.

To be fair the dude was already cheating.
And my ex used to play mind games like that all the flipping time. I would not think it was exclusive at all.

Makes me wonder whether men or women are better at playing mind games. Example a text conversation between me and my ex.
Me: What's up?
Her: Hanging out at Georges house.
Me: Cool, I let you go, don't want to take you away from your friends. Text me later if you want to talk.
Her: OMG You don't have to be so fucking jealous.
Me:...what?

OR one time I got a text from my best friend (male) and when I opened it I find a topless picture of one of our female friends (that she took and sent) saying this is all your going to get. I was very confused.

Well thats exactly why you should never play stupid games during relationships. I'm female and I don't think I'm insane. If I had my suspicions about a partner I'd either come right out and confront the situation. Or just let it be. Whatever happens, happens. If it turned out that a partner is a cheat well, it will all come out eventually. Some people just let their emotions and jealousy take hold, and make them do idiotic things. If you don't trust someone you either confront the situation or end the relationship. Simples.

Also men can be just as Insane. I had an ex who I had remained friends with for a number of years hack my facebook account and read all my messages, and also accused me of seeing a guy that I was actually just friends with. The kicker, this happened a few months ago, and it's been 5 years since we broke up.

Oh buddy yes they can be. Also we might know the same person because I know someone who is going through a similar situation with her boyfriend.
People I don't think like to realize it but men and women are not different at all. Sure we bring different toys to the party down below but upstairs we're really the same.

 

[Grimh]

Oh! So that's why I think women are insane!
Thanks for clarifying that for me.
I get so confused sometimes!

I jest, the story was pretty funny, if a bit sad.

 

[esperandote]

If he wasn't cheating on her before that, I would find it funny, but since he did i feel sorry for her.

 

[Shivarage]

So to test her boyfriend's faithfulness she hires a woman to do everything in her power to make him unfaithful?

Yeah, it's almost as ridiculous as preventing a war happening by preparing and being ready and waiting for war

 

[AfroTree]

*shrugs* Bitches be crazy, and by bitches, I mean everyone. Gender is irrelevant to stupidity.

Anyway, seems strange to me in this that she seems to be mad at the girl rather than her unfaithful boyfriend.

I'll have you know I'm the sanest person I know.

OT: heh, worth a read.

Seems like he went up in terms of..however you gauge this kind of thing.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Talking about these things never solves anything, right?

But then he'd know she was absolutely bat-shit crazy! It had to be a secret test otherwise she'd just come off insane.

OT: Man, some people are just a joke. I hope to God this new couple get married, it would be such a brilliant tale to tell.

 

[DoPo]

a woman who thought 3D porn got her pregnant and other assorted bullshit.

Wait, I'm pretty sure that was a fake news story there. Either the Onion or otherwise fake. Why do people still bring it up?

Spoiler: I'll be leaving this here...

That's because she crazy.

OP

That can't be ALL women, but when those qualities are present, to certain degrees, and in certain numbers of people, then we can call them insane. Be always aware that this can work in reverse as well.
Until that's proven, though, we all have to accept imperfections and strengthen relations.

OT: Wow, that lady is crazy. Not casterate-your-boyfriend-for-the-lulz [http://static.tumblr.com/wtrxjmk/4RVlv6n3z/anon.jpg]-crazy, but pretty crazy.

 

[viranimus]

This is sort of why they used to have laws against entrapment, but hey, If its good enough of a justification for Chris Hansen to catch Pedos, I guess its good enough to catch cheaters, amirite?

 

[BathorysGraveland]

Well, it seemed the guy got an upgrade in the end anyway.

Level up!

Except the latter two of your examples show the men being extremely vindictive (a trait usually associated with women, when men use it much more, except in different ways than women) and expressing a lot of misogyny in the way they tell the stories. Regardless of how insane these women in question may also be, the men are acting pretty shitty too, with the only exception being your first example really. Also you used 4chan as reference? Really?

I think the lesson to be learned here is some people are selfish, illogical idiots and its silly to say its only women who apply to that.

If the U.S. government is any indication.

There is (or used to be) a reality show based on this premise, except instead of a female PI, it was models of both genders. The whole premise was jealous lovers trying to get their significant other to cheat on them, and their reaction after they found out if they did or not. Reality TV today may be trashy, but that show (Cheaters? I,'m not sure on the title) and Temptation Island show that the low point was hit shortly after Survivor came out.

Captcha: red white and blue.

Indeed, 'merica.

Nah, in Cheaters they just stalked the significant other until they did something odd.

It was some other show, then; unless my memory is a lot faultier than I think it is, there was a show at one point that fit the description I gave. It caused quite a stir when it came out, as I recall.

 

[smithy_2045]

Reminds me of the Futurama episode where Bender pretends to be his twin or whatever to prove that his robot girlfriend doesn't love him.

That's what I thought when I read the article and saw pictures of them

 

[Wintermoot]

at least she now knows for sure he,s cheating on her.
