Don't underestimate how manipulative women like this can be, women like this know extremely well how to trick their way into a man's head, heart, and wallet. And it can absolutely be difficult for a man to notice the red flags that are painfully obvious to people outside of the relationship, since women like this know how to psychologically trap men. That's why men need to be EXTREMELY careful and vigilant when dating, it's very easy to end up with a woman like this and not realize.
