5. He Tries to Convince You That He Loves You

Everyone wants to hear those three words, but nobody wants to be played with. If you feel it in your gut that your Sagittarius man is not sincere when he tells you he loves you, that’s probably because he doesn’t. He wants to get something from you, so he tries to convince you he loves you.

Meeting each other family and friends is a huge step in every relationship. So if he clearly doesn’t want to meet them and is always avoiding them, you should ask yourself if he’s really committed to you. He’s probably playing you and is not serious about your relationship.

17. You See Each Other on His Own Terms

Does he ignore you when you want to see each other but then he gets mad when you do it to him? That’s a big no! If you always see each other on his terms, unfortunate, your Sagittarius man is playing you. 

18. He’s Constantly Negative

We all have bad days, but if he’s constantly negative about you and you start feeling like you’re to blame, it’s time to walk away. You should be with someone who’s genuinely happy to be with you and not miserable.

19. He’s Gaslighting You

Gaslighting is a manipulation method, and most players use it to get what they want. When you feel like he’s making you crazy, try to stay calm and keep your cool. Don’t give him what he wants. Instead, walk away and find someone who will treat you better.

20. He Always Makes Excuses

You want to introduce him to your best friend, but he’s too tired to go out. You want to go to the movies, but he already made other plans. Excuses, excuses! If he’s all about excuses, that’s a clear sign he’s a player who’s not ready to commit to anyone.

21. He Lies to You About Where He’s Been

Lying is unacceptable in a relationship, so if you catch him lying to you or trying to hide something, don’t ignore it. He’s probably a player and wants to get away with something.

So, you want to play mind games with a Sagittarius man and win? Well, good luck! It certainly won’t be easy. They’re masters at mind games, especially if they’ve had previous experience playing other girls. 

First of all, start playing hard to get. This will drive him crazy because he’s used to being the distant one. He wants to be the one that’s hard to get. So when you start acting like you don’t care, he may be intrigued by it. 

Also, whenever he tries to confront you about it, gaslight him. Give him the taste of his own medicine. He might realize what it feels like when he does it to you and regret his actions.

Another passive-aggressive game to play with a Sagittarius man is to challenge his facts. Since he’s big on debates, he will get caught in this game immediately. He might not even notice what you did to him.

He will want to spend time with you, whether that’s to watch TV or go out. It’s very easy to spot a Sagittarius in love because they’re very lovey-dovey.

How to Know if a Sagittarius Man Is Not Interested

On the other hand, when a Sagittarius man is not interested, he will seem cold and distant. He won’t even notice when you’re feeling bad because he doesn’t care. 

He will avoid you and gaslight you when you confront him about it. He won’t take you out to dates or text you first. If you feel like he’s not interested in you, it’s probably because he really isn’t. Don’t ignore your gut feeling and find someone who will love you for who you are.
