Hey everyone! do you like playing games within a group or group of friends? If so do you guys like Truth and Dare? what is your reaction if you play that with friends? do you get antsy or moody if being insisted to play games like this or any games? How do I make anyone understand there are times I'm not into playing group games? is there anyone that also dislikes playing games in a group and would rather be game watcher or game observer? Anyways the source is true regarding my friend told me that I was kinda rude on my reaction to being insisted to play game Truth or Dare when hanging out at baskin robbins. I was moody or whinu because I hate being forced to playing games. And my friend said I should let loose or have a fun a bit which is true but in a way, I guess i'm gonna lose people who would want to hangout with me if it happens. I'm not a gamer in group. I would rather be game watcher or game observer most of the time. Also I know it's just a game, but when it comes to it, I hate being embarassed and I hate losing. How do I stop being annoyed of playing games and going on with that? And I felt offended when she told me all this and she did give me that look she was annoyed that I responded all like "i dunno wanna play" or a no shrug expression moody because they really want me to play..and then she was all annoyed and serious and whatevers she said. Then I get chastised or reprimanded by her.. but it would be worse if my parents saw how I reacted on that case..... And what's embarassing is i'm older few years than her..and I'm all moody when it comes to games. I hate competitiveness. I hate losing. I know it's just a game to have fun but I dunno. I know I have to let loose but i just hope my parents didn't know all that other wise it'd be the same chastise. Now I might distance myself because of all my actions on this. I feel stupid on sometimes how I act. And I hope any of my friends don't tell how i moody was when it comes to them insisting me to play games.. i really don't know anymore.. i hate myself for this.. What are your thoughts on all this? I hope to discuss more on this..

Well i have always preferred playing games that requires individual efforts, it is not that i do not like playing in a group but i think it requires a lot of coordination and understanding between the players of a team to strike the right cord and then play a game. so i have felt comfortable whenever i have played alone.

that's cool you prefer playing games that requires individual efforts, good points on what you mentioned on playing in groups. Well as for me, I think it's social wise. I don't like playing in groups with friends just like yesterday because it's a game of truth or dare.. And I also heard playing too much "Truth" on Truth and Dare is too boring. i hate that game because I don't like sharing information especially if it's truth...I don't like blurting... Generally I hate that game but I have played it on the girls hangout I hosted at my house just for the sake of playing it for fun.. Other than, I generally hate those games or playing games too much.. I know I'm prolly a killjoy which makes it why I didn't have much friends before and that they prefer people are more socially open on games and such.. More like I'm too boring group wise. I prefer alone games for some reason. What kind of games you play? card games? video games?
