if she deserves it, keep on going
Oh my god! I thought you we're hitting her! Yeah, you always let the girl win!Should I stop beating my wife?
NEVER stop beating your wife.
You didn't get me with the title because I know how this goes down.Should I stop beating my wife?
You can if you want but make sure you don't let her notice. Though this shouldn't be an issue if it's just a game afterall.
I'm a chess player. Honestly, the most I ever learned about chess was from playing a guy that could stomp me every time. I got frustrated too but I also got a lot LOT better at it over time. I eventually began having stalemates with him almost beating him a couple times.
(he was stationed in Alaska in the service in a bunker where all they had to do was play chess and read books on the subject)
I'm pretty hard to beat now and all because I never gave up playing against this guy.
Just be a good winner...and let her know you considered "letting her win" but you know that she will be winning soon enough.
Nope, that will be equally frustrating. Help her find other newbies to play online. There are many multi-player and game sites.
I thought this question was going in a whole different direction based on your title...
My fiance is very competitive and has a bad habit of gloating about his wins so I lost interest in competing against him. I would just make sure you are being encouraging and don't make her feel bad about losing.
Letting her win a couple might not hurt, but don't make it obvious! If she knows you're letting her win she'll feel worse.
Too late now. Would have worked when you first started play chess with her.
You pull that trick on your children when they are young.
Spot her your queen, both bishops, and a rook.
Personally, until she could play at my level I had to give up my queen, a rook and BOTH my knights. OUCH! (I like my knights)
Hallooo,yaaaaaaaaa,
Nah, don't be condescending
Sounds like she needs a different chess partner.
It seems that you two might already have some sort of competitiveness built into the relationship, or she may have a built in competitive reflex. I have counseled many people like this, and the problem is that they feel useless if they do not win. I would suggest teaching her as best as possible and introducing a give and take. Do sets of 3 matches daily. Of course, you can do more, but in increments of 3. Play the first as you normally would, during the second play to a level where she has a challenge, yet barely wins, and on the last play as you did the second, but barely win. This allows her the mindset that she is improving, even if she is not. Just remember, marriage is about give and take, and sometimes you have to eat your pride for your partners benefit. Happy chess playing!
yes
well lying is never good! Maybe you should pair her up with someone her skill level
If you want to keep her interest, you have some decisions to make. Be sensitive to the actions that you take. If she looses interest, you have defeated the purpose.
