Red flags all over or am i imagining them?

Solid analysis. Even if a bit dark triad, you’ve got an insight into the inside game of the dating trapattechnique of pick up con canardistry/ commodity fetishism logical consequent. The idea here being that the situation would trigger the targets own feelings of competition and thereby increase their value which you’d work harder to hump I guess. Now that conartistry has been suggested, I’m like “she’s deported and blacklisted?! Tf?! That happened while they were together?? Blacklisted? “”So there’s this other lady, she’s absolutely 100% an impossibility for me to be with, but I love her, see…and I got a real busy schedule sooo….bottom line, my terms and conditions, this isn’t a contract, which is because I can change up the conditions at my pleasure”” now I’m like no cake for you, Cake-Azov, you’re asking for total narrative control? Very sus now”. This is what happens when we introduce the very real possibility of disingenuousness and zero sum game theory. Gdmnit. We gotta take people at their word. If lying or deploying feints to compel us to action we wouldn’t otherwise take, ill will and manipulative MAD strategy says more about him that one who gets taken in by it. “When people tell you who they are, believe them.” The alternative is paranoia’s poison door #2, it’s weird in there. Unrecommend.
