This is suicide for the relationship. Given that you've exposed their games, they automatically recognise you can't be gamed, and their shame-o-meter goes berserk at the implications for their tainted self-image. Since they rely so heavily on external validation beyond the regular woman, the male equivalent of this would be like a female emasculating you.
It seems they intuitively know who is a suitable partner and who isn't, they are attracted I believe to people who intrigue them, who are sort of enigmatic and aren't easily categorised as obviously alpha or beta, but are teetering somewhere the edges of both. They don't go for outright alphas because they are all about control. So they go for the most challenging of the options that they're still certain to come out on top of. Kind of like when you play a computer game at a difficulty level that is challenging enough to be fun but not so hard that you won't definitely be able to complete it.
Thing is, it means they're guaranteed one of two options in relationships:
1. A doormat they can easily control who they will not only become quickly bored with, but lose all respect for and despise as their shyt testing endlessly rains down on this poor hapless soul.
2. A guaranteed turbulent relationship with someone who isn't so easily controlled or at least can see what's happening but tries to maintain some equilibrium by constantly putting out fires and using their own cognitive manipulation. Still, this is something akin to a peacock spreading its feathers at a Cobra.
Either way, it seems like they're the sharp point of the Darwinian spear, poster-girls for monogamy they ain't.
