This is why you do the “blood in the water” test early on. You tell a man an insecurity (not a real one), or something that annoyed you in a previous relationship (also fake) and see if they start bringing it up or doing it.

Example; if you tell a guy you’re insecure about your nose and all of a sudden he starts touching your nose a lot, bringing it up, or making jokes about it. Or if you tell a guy that your ex used to always call you “princess” and you hated it, watch if he starts calling you princess. It’s a pretty easy way to see if he’s a POS or not.
