Even though our love was immature and did not stand the test of time and all the adversary we went through, I did love my ex-wife and I think she probably loved me too.

Every other woman I said ILY too, I meant it at the time, and I think a form of love was there even if that love didn't age well lol

I think that's how it works for most. There's rarely a reason to deliberately deceive the other person.

The results should be interesting!
Unfortunately, not to many will admit it. We all notice other peoples' games but fail to notice (or admit to) our own.

Another example is the so-called "friend zone" and the associated man who acts like a friend when really he wants to be a lover

both participants are being naive and misleading but neither one is intentionally trying to hurt anyone

Well, women may be misleading, but they're not naive in those situations... Even if they deny it in public, deep down they know!

I think women want/need to convince themselves that when they sleep with a man there's an emotional connection involved, otherwise they are a bad person (either in their own mind or in the mind of others).

On the outside it might appear to be manipulation (and sometimes it is), but mostly, I think it's wishful thinking on her part and the only way that she can enjoy sex without guilt.

I wouldnt tell them I love them if I didnt. I have a problem with the way the OP is worded though, you say it as if it is a fact that all men would do this, just how many will admitt it. Thats not true, I wouldnt do it

hmm. Now that I think about it, I think in every relationship I've had, the woman has said she loved me before I reciprocated.

So I never used it as a way to manipulate.
