How to Play Mind Games With a Leo Man

Perhaps you want to get under his skin and make him angry, or maybe you want to know what to avoid so you can keep your Leo guy happy.

Regardless of your intentions, there are plenty of mind games you can play to get under a Leo man’s skin and drive him wild.

By learning more about his zodiac sign’s typical personality traits and psychological characteristics, you will know how to beat a Leo man at mind games.

Don’t Prioritize Him

A Leo man has a big ego and is very confident. He believes that everyone shares his high opinion of himself, and he expects others to cater to his needs.

When a Leo man is interested in a woman, he becomes less self-centered. He prioritizes her needs above his, and he goes out of his way to please her.

If he cancels his other plans to hang out with you, it’s one of the signs a Leo man has a crush on you. Making any sort of sacrifice for someone else is a big deal to a Leo guy.

If you want to show him that you care about him, you should prioritize your Leo man, as well.

But if you want to play mind games with him, put him at the bottom of your priority list and make him feel unimportant.

A Leo man hates being belittled because he’s so egotistical. When you make him feel insignificant, it hurts his pride and confuses him.

You can show him how little he matters to you by being too busy to spend any time with him or blowing off the plans you made with him.

Be Disloyal

Leo is one of the most loyal signs of the entire zodiac. When a Leo man loves a woman, he devoted himself to her wholeheartedly.

He is also loyal to his friends, family, and coworkers. He takes his relationships with others very seriously and he would never intentionally betray someone he cares about.

If you’re casually dating or just friends with a Leo guy and he asks you whether or not you have any other men in your life, your Leo man is testing you.

He wants to see how loyal you are and if you’re seeing anyone else besides him. He’s trying to gauge how serious you are about him and size up his competition.

If you want to win him over, tell him you’re not seeing anybody else because you’re only interested in him.

But if you want to confuse him and play mind games, tell him that you have another date lined up when you’re done with him, so you need to hurry and finish your drink.

It will drive your Leo man crazy to know that he hasn’t won you over yet and that he’s still competing with other men for your attention.

Cheat on Him

Because Leo is such a loyal star sign, a Leo man is unlikely to be unfaithful in romantic relationships. He also won’t tolerate infidelity from his partner.

If his partner cheats on him, he will most likely dump her immediately. If he stays with her and tries to forgive her, he will never be able to get over it and will eventually have to end the relationship.

If you’re wondering, “How does a Leo man test a woman?” The answer is that he tries to find out if she’s a cheater.

When you’re dating a Leo guy, he will probably ask you early in the relationship if you’ve ever cheated on a partner before.

What a Leo man wants to hear is no, you’ve never been unfaithful because it goes against your values.

But if you want to get in his head and mess with his mind, tell him that you’ve cheated on every boyfriend you’ve ever had and you don’t think it’s a big deal.

Say that you’ve looked into exploring open relationships, and ask if he would be willing to let you see other men while you’re in a relationship with him.

Or, you could be coy about your past, and tell him that your relationship history is between you and your exes.

If you cheat on your Leo man or make him feel like you would, it’s sure to make him go crazy.

Be Extremely Confident

If you’re asking yourself, “What qualities does a Leo man look for in a woman?” The answer is that confidence is the most attractive trait to him.

What a Leo man looks for in a woman is self-esteem. His ideal partner knows she is a catch and carries herself with confidence.

You might think that this means you should act insecure or shy to play mind games with a Leo man, but this isn’t the case.

To really get under his skin, you should act extremely confident around your Leo guy. Pretend like you have the biggest ego in the world and that nobody could ever be good enough for you.

Your Leo man will be automatically attracted to your confidence, but he’ll be confused and turned off by the size of your massive ego.

He won’t know how to react to you, and he will drive himself crazy trying to impress you and measure up to your standards.

Always Look Your Best

Some zodiac signs prefer a modest, reserved woman, but a Leo guy likes a woman with flashy tastes.

He likes when his partner dresses sexy and gets attention from other guys, as long as she remains loyal to him.

When you’re trying to mess with his mind, you might think you should do the opposite of what he likes and dress conservatively.

But if you really want to twist his brain, you should look stunning and provocative when you see your Leo man.

He won’t be able to control his attraction to you if you wear something ostentatious, and he will get extremely jealous of the reaction you get from other men.

If you want to know how to make a Leo man want you more and mess with his head, you should wear his favorite color.

The color associated with Leo is orange, so putting on a short, tight orange dress and heels is sure to drive him crazy.

And if you want to know how to make a Leo man miss you and drive him wild with lust, send him a photo of yourself in lingerie and say it’s too bad that he’s not there with you.

Ignore Him

There is nothing a Leo man loves more than attention, especially from a woman he admires.

He also likes showering the woman he loves with attention and affection. He knows how to make her feel special and like she’s the only person in the room.

When a Leo man likes you, he will focus all of his attention on you. But if you’re wondering how to know when a Leo man is playing you, he will deliberately ignore you.

If you want to know what to do when a Leo man ignores you, you can play mind games with him by ignoring him back.

Make a point of talking to everyone in the room except for him. If he tries to start a conversation with you, look past him and rush off to greet the first person you see.

When you deprive him of the attention he craves, it will drive your Leo man crazy and make him wonder why you don’t notice him.

Compare Him to Others

Leo is a highly competitive zodiac sign, so a Leo guy never backs down from a challenge. He loves competing, especially for a woman’s attention.

When you want to drive your Leo man crazy, challenge him to a competition you know he can’t win.

If you’re a fast runner, ask him to race you to the end of the street. When he loses, it will blow his mind, even though it was just a meaningless race.

You can also play mind games with him by comparing him to others, especially other men that he admires.

Point it out when a man makes more money, is more muscular, or has a nicer car than your Leo guy. Try to find the things he’s insecure about, and specifically compare those traits to other men.

Tease Him

If you’re noticing the signs a Leo man is not interested in you, you can get his attention back and drive him crazy by teasing him.

Play hard to get and don’t let him win. Let him kiss you one day, but then pull away from his touch the next.

Act like you’re interested in spending the night at his place, but then tell him you need to go home when your date is over.

Build up the sexual tension between you and allow him to think he’s making progress, then backpedal and make him win you over again.

Insult Him

As much as a Leo man loves compliments, he hates being insulted. You can play mind games with any Leo guy by sneakily putting him down.

You don’t have to be direct or obvious. Instead, playfully make fun of him, but take it a little too far by poking at the things he’s sensitive about.

If your Leo man is insecure about his haircut, laugh and say it looks like he got hit by a lawnmower.

If he’s sensitive about how much money he makes, jokingly say that you’d ask him to take you out on a date but you know he can’t afford it.

When you put your Leo man down, especially in a clever way so he can’t fight back, it messes with his head.
