15 Signs a Pisces Man Is Playing You
Usually, when a Pisces man is playing you, your intuition will start to catch on. It’s helpful to be able to read the signs early on, so you can either address the situation or move on. If you’re not sure if a Pisces man is playing you, here are some common signs to look out for:
1. He Never Has Time for You
Pisces men can often have their heads in the clouds and will run around doing a million things at once. However, they are usually very interested in slowing down to focus on the person they are dating.
If your Pisces man is always too busy or he frequently cancels plans with you at the last minute, this may be a sign that he isn’t serious.
2. He’s Secretive About Himself
Pisces men are usually very passionate about everything they do and will display their emotions openly. Because of this, they tend not to hold anything back when talking with someone else.
However, if a Pisces man is playing you, he will seem moody and standoffish.
He may not want to get too involved with you, so he won’t open up. He will give vague answers or even avoid responding to your questions altogether. If this is the case, it’s probably time to move on from your relationship.
3. He Acts Cranky
He might also act angry or irritable when you try to talk with him about anything serious such as your relationship. This may manifest as a bad mood that’s hard to shake, even though he was fine earlier in the day.
If this happens around the same time each week, you may always be left wondering what’s wrong with him. It could be because he is playing games with your head.
You may have noticed when he wants something from you (like money or sex) he’s really nice. But as soon as you give it to them, the person changes and becomes demanding or unappreciative. This is a common trait of people who play games with others.

4. He Isn’t Flexible
Pisces men appreciate harmony and don’t like to be outwardly stubborn with people they care about. They will sooner offer a compromise or give up their position altogether.
However, if he doesn’t see you as a close companion, he won’t put forth the effort to make sure your needs are met.
He may shut down requests or conversations altogether. He may say things like “I don’t know, I just don’t want to do that” or “I don’t care, do whatever you want.”
This means that your relationship is only one-sided. He has no intention of making it work because it doesn’t benefit him in any way. He’s expressing that by being indifferent about working together to find solutions or agreements.
5. He Isn’t Interested in Your Personal Life
Pisces men love hearing other people’s stories and enjoy offering advice. When a Pisces man is into you, he will give you his full attention and ask questions about your day.
However, if he isn’t interested in you anymore, he will appear disinterested and not be attentive to what you’re saying.
Instead of asking how your week was or about your upcoming plans, he’ll shift conversation topics back around himself. This is his way of avoiding getting too emotionally attached to you.
6. You Haven’t Met His Friends or Family
A Pisces man will want you to meet his friends and family as soon as possible. This is a sign that he’s serious about you and wants everyone to know about your relationship.
If he isn’t introducing you to the important people in his life, it’s because he doesn’t see you as long-term potential or he’s dating around.
7. He Won’t Be Physically Affectionate
Pisces men are notoriously affectionate and enjoy physical touch. If he’s not interested in you, he won’t be as physically demonstrative.
He may pull away when you try to hug him or give him a pat on the back. He’ll also have less patience for long conversations that involve touching. For example, if you like to hold hands while you discuss something, he may become more withdrawn or fidget.
He’ll also be less likely to reach out and touch your arm when talking or give kisses on the forehead and cheeks. He may even stop giving hugs altogether.
8. You’ve Caught Him in Lies
Lying is a sign that a person isn’t trustworthy and doesn’t have your best interests at heart. If you’ve caught your Pisces man in lies, there may be other lies lurking around the corner.
This could be anything from hiding his true feelings about the relationship to hiding the fact that he is seeing other women. If he’s telling you bald-faced lies about anything at all, it means that he doesn’t value being honest or forthcoming with you.
This doesn’t bode well for the future of your relationship, because if you can’t trust him to be upfront and honest, what else has he been lying about?
9. He Treats the Relationship Like a Job
A Pisces man will be passionate about spending time with his partner and will see it as a treat.
However, if he’s not interested in you, he may start treating the relationship like a job. This means that he’ll schedule time for you, but he will be checked out, and seem like he’s waiting for his “work shift” to end.
If this seems to be the case, you should have a talk with him about his feelings. If he’s constantly checking out mentally and isn’t invested, it can hurt your own self-esteem. You shouldn’t stay in a relationship where you feel like an obligation or chore.
10. He Acts Differently in Public
If your Pisces man is affectionate with you behind closed doors but cold in public, it’s a sign that he is playing you. You may think that he’s shy or reserved in public, but this isn’t the case. If a Pisces man is into you, he’ll be affectionate no matter where you are.
He may act differently around others because his friends and family don’t know about your relationship. He might also have exes or current interests who come around often enough that he doesn’t want to stir up drama.
11. He Doesn’t Notice Your Efforts
Pisces men love details and special efforts made by their partners. If he doesn’t notice the date nights you plan, the new perfume you purchased, or your perfectly curated outfit, it’s because he isn’t interested.
If you’re making an effort to look your best and make him feel like a priority and he doesn’t recognize this, then it’s likely his mind is elsewhere.
12. He Stops Being Playful
Pisces men are dreamers and enjoy the emotional connection that comes with being playful. They like to joke around, tease you gently, and be in a light-hearted mood.
If he’s not interested in you anymore, he may seem more reserved or distant when it comes to playfulness.
He won’t want to engage in any type of silly banter or games if he is trying to avoid intimacy with you. He may even become upset or irritated by your attempts to lighten things up, to further block the relationship.
13. He Makes Passive-Aggressive Comments
It can be challenging for a Pisces man to directly express negative emotions. So if something is going wrong for him, he may express it by being passive-aggressive. You may notice this in the form of comments that are slightly veiled insults or sarcasm.
For example, he may say something like “I can’t believe you would think I would do something like that.” This is his way of telling you that he’s not happy without actually coming out and saying it.
If this becomes a common occurrence in your relationship, it’s a sign that he’s not interested in you.
14. He Never Initiates Contact
If your Pisces man is playing games, he may forget to text you, call you, or make plans for dates. This is a clear sign that his mind isn’t focused on the relationship.
If he’s not interested in you, he won’t put effort into reaching out and staying connected. Even worse, he may be distracted since he is busy texting and calling someone else.
15. He Doesn’t Notice or Make Romantic Gestures
Pisces men are known for being romantic and expressive. If your man isn’t doing things like buying you flowers, writing love notes, or taking you on surprise dates, then he’s not interested in you.
Do Pisces Men Play Mind Games?
Pisces men can be like chameleons, changing their moods and attitudes depending on what’s going on in their lives. It’s very possible that this man will play mind games before he is ready to settle down.
When he’s playing these games, it’s usually because he is on the fence about a relationship decision. He may not be fully ready emotionally for a partner, but want someone to go on dates with.
He may also be interested in many people and not ready to choose one. These sensitive and watery men can become interested in several women at once, although, usually not successfully.
If you’re the woman he’s playing mind games with, there are ways to avoid this relationship rollercoaster.
First, be honest with yourself about your feelings for him. Do you feel like he is giving you enough attention? Are his actions matching what he says?
Second, think logically rather than emotionally. Don’t make excuses for him when he’s not giving you attention. He may be a daydreaming Pisces, but that doesn’t mean he should get away with being selfish or inconsiderate.
Third, ask yourself if you’re getting enough out of this relationship. If you’re not, then it may be time to say goodbye and look for someone who will give you the attention you deserve.
In the Pisces man’s defense, we must realize that he doesn’t have complete control over his emotions or mind games. He is a water sign ruled by Neptune, so it’s very common for him to experience moodiness and confusion.
If you’re patient and understand that he’s not always in control, you can work through these games together. Just make sure that he is putting equal effort into the relationship and isn’t taking advantage of your understanding nature.
How Does a Pisces Man Test a Woman?
When a Pisces man tests a woman, it is different than playing her. He is genuinely open to the idea of a relationship with her, but he wants to be sure that she is right for him. He will test a woman in many ways to see if they are compatible.
A Pisces will test the loyalty and communication skills of any potential future partner. In addition, he may ignore your communications from time to time or give you mixed signals.
The Pisces man will also want to know that you understand his emotional nature and can handle it when he is feeling down or confused. He is a very sensitive being and needs to trust you in this way in order to move forward.
I’ve compiled a list of 11 ways a Pisces man tests you so that you’re prepared when he is deciding whether or not he’s ready to commit to the relationship. If you take time to review these signs, you will pass his tests with flying colors.
