Turns out it was the query acting wonky...here is a query that embodies 
everything i wanted but actually worked.

$myquery = $this->paginate('Model',  array('OR' =>
            array('Model.field1 LIKE' => '%,' . $var . ',%',
            array('Model.field1 LIKE' => '%,' . $var),
            array('Model.field1 LIKE' => $var . ',%')                
        ),
            'AND' => array(
                'NOT' => array(
                    'Model.field2' => array('6', '10'), array('Model.field3' 
=> '2')                
                )
            )
        ));
