Well, it all depended.

I took losing quite well at least half of the time, I would just ask for the rematch so I could prove I could kick their asses. Sometimes, if I lost at a game I believed I was really good at, I'd throw a fit and insist they cheated/I was distracted/It didn't count because of whatever. I was a really prideful kid and while losing at a game I didn't care much about wasn't that big a deal, losing in a game that I thought I was the supreme queen at truly made me go in denial mode hahaha.

Now, if someone used dirty tricks to defeat me while playing a game (tickling, distracting me, you say it) I would get so pissed it wouldn't even be funny. Maybe even cry about it hahaha.

I was but a small child, I had no control over my emotions. Nowadays I'm really chill about it, though.
Same here man. Once we learn how pointless it is to try and be best at everything we adopt a more laid back attitude. The funny thing however is that this caries over to adult life. The same prideful kid is the jackass in your work who want to prove everyone he is better than the whole world. I am glad Im past that and I bet you are too
