Types of Pig-Dogs
You’ve met them. You’ve dated them. Perhaps you even know a few men who fit into multiple categories. Perhaps you have given them names of your own (if so, we’d love to hear about them), but here are some of the more common types of Pig-Dogs.
The Iraqi Information Minister Pig-Dog.
Perhaps one of the rarest of all Pig-Dogs, but one of the most dangerous. This man takes lying and denying to a whole new level. Named after the Iraqi Information Minister (remember him?- the man who offered triple guarantees of no US soldiers in Baghdad and offered to lead the press to the airport in one hour to show them the Iraqis still had control), this man can lie and deny so convincingly that he will cause *you* to question reality. You know what you saw or discovered with your own eyes, but he is so convincing and adamant, that you begin to doubt you know what you know to be true
Wolf in Geek’s Clothing (a/k/a The Ugly Ducking, a/k/a Frog to Prince).
This is one of my favorite Pig-Dogs. We have probably all met him at one time or another. He’s the “nice” guy, ordinary guy, shy or complicated, usually intelligent and quiet. He’s the guy who plays the opposite of the Player. He doesn’t use lines or do anything to make himself seem unique and special, instead he can seem almost awkward and unsure of himself. He’s the guy who also has many women friends who “don’t think of him *that* way.” They are only just friends. He plays on his geekness to get close to you when he tells you he hasn’t had many girlfriends or relationships and you believe him. The problem is, at some point in his life, he discovered that this was the quickest and easiest way to get to women and have them believe everything he says. He’s hoping his being a geek will leave you unsuspecting to the fact that he has many, many women believing the same thing.
The Puppetmaster (a/k/a How Far Will You Go).
This Pig-Dog may like you, but he’s more interested in seeing what you will do for him - just exactly how far will you go for his affections. He may give you a million different reasons to do things for him, but no matter what or why, or how much you do for him (at his request of course) he never changes, opens up, or offers anything in return. In fact, the more you do or change, the more he will want you to do. For whatever reason, he just wants to see exactly what he can get you to do for him. There are so many categories in this respect. He may want you to do something you aren’t comfortable with, be someone that you are not (in appearance or personality). He is indeed playing you, and, guess what, the more you do, the more he will want you to do. He’s just seeing how long you will let him control the strings.
