It's not obvious what it means really. Hence why it's not a good thing to write on a dating profile.

What many people call "game playing" is a joke and an inaccurate representation of what is actually going on. A situation that someone doesn't like, doesn't mean the other person is playing games.

Well I would hope they are not talking about Unemployment, Medical, and Financial drama lol

I'm pretty sure that having an ex waiting in the wings who may end up back in the picture when your will power wavers would be considered to be drama by many.

A profile it just to give you a general idea if you might get on with someone.
This is what I was wondering, too. Why such a fixation on "no drama"? Because the writers are control freaks? lol. What personality flaws are they hiding, and attributing to drama on their dates' part?

I'm in no contact with him. What else do you want me to do?

Be alone and take time to heal? I've done that before, for a year and half, and nothing changed. I always have some boy in my head since I was 13 years old. At all times, and he doesn't get replaced in my thoughts until I find a new one, but once I find a new one, POOF, the old one is gone out of my head. Just like that.. and I'm into the new one. That's just how I am.

I suspect that the people that cause drama are unable to recognize it in themselves. Saying no drama is, imho, a waste of time.

Yep! Those are the drama-causers I’ve met. Just want to do dumb stuff, get away with things, and not deal with consequences. Instead if the reaction is: “You did what?!” The person reacting is “full of drama”. Otherwise known as gas-lighting.

The woman ending the relationship could be considered "creating drama". But it's not.

I agree. They only want the drama THEY create though.
