VV,
This girl is not "brilliant", a "master manipulator" of some incredible "caliber", nor is she a "dangerous sociopath". She's just a normal woman, and she did what a normal woman does as a matter of course, which is to lie to a man who falls for her. It doesn't make her into a special monster, except to the extent that almost all women are.
You really liked this girl, she knew it, and she found it very easy to lie and deceive you. There's very little else to say.
You know I love you Liz but you've made a number of incorrect assumptions here.
First, I was in no way smitten by this girl.
I found her to be an easy and fairly decent lay.
That was the sole foundation of our liaison as far as I was concerned.
When "my son" entered the picture, I oscillated between bailing and sticking around.
Eventually I begrudgingly decided to stick around, mainly because I liked the idea of having a son and it provided amazing clarity/motivation.
Once you have kids your priorities change and you tend to do away with inane, time-wasting activities.
It's actually pretty cool.

It's instructive that the reactions of guys on the thread are basically "wow" or averring that there is some "black pill" to be found here. It only shows how little most "red pill" talk really amounts to when push comes to shove -- that is, when a guy encounters a girl that he likes and that really does it for him.
She didn't "do it" for me per se.
She was the mother of my kid as far as I knew, and that's what did it.
There were cool perks, like going to the market with her and learning how to get fresh amazing Thai food at Thai prices, eating meals together, and doing family type stuff.
It kind of gave me a glimpse into what marriage is probably like.
But if I'd had my choice, I wouldn't have selected this girl to be my baby mama/partner.
The way it played out, I reluctantly decided to do "the right thing" and then made my peace with the humiliation of being roped into it.
I may not have wanted him, but at least he way my son.
Turns out, if you have any moral compass and inclination to do the so called right thing, you become an easier target to exploit.

If you found it (porno behavior) to be a turnoff, let alone a big turnoff, she wouldn't do it. She only does it because it works. Why deceive yourself?
Again I respectfully differ.
She does it because she reads it in her chick magazines and thinks guys can't tell the difference between affectation and genuine enjoyment/ecstasy.
I certainly can tell the difference and on more than one occasion I've actually wanted to tell her to please stop talking while she said all manner of stupid porno things like "oh it's so big! Give me more, GIVE ME MORE."
I really hate that stuff and not only does it not do it for me, it actively turns me off.

The words of a man who's been hurt, but men need women just like women need men. The truth is that you'll probably trust a woman again, and you might get luckier, or not. I think this experience shows that you're very far from being the disabused cad that men like to imagine themselves as being but almost never are, all "red pill" proclamations notwithstanding. Does that make them "chumps"? Yes, pretty much; but that's life.
I don't know man...
I was already pretty cynical about women before this experience.
But I had a glimmer of hope that NAWALT.
This was the clincher.
I will literally NEVER trust women again, except to be women.
I agree though that we need them and I'm not just going to stop doing my thang because I got burned.
You take your lumps and get back in the game and eat the fucking game for breakfast the next day: wrestling taught me that.

During the time you thought the baby was yours did you spend a lot of money on the two of them?
Do you have an accounting of the total?
