Generally, we accept that no one is perfect. And when it comes to dating, we can also agree that no couple is one hundred percent flawless.
For sure, we all have imperfections but at the same time, there are certain traits that clearly count as red flags. If you choose to ignore them when you are meeting or dating someone, you are in trouble.
To survive the dating world and save yourself from serious heartbreaks, you need to learn how to navigate wisely.
Otherwise, if you decide to stay and play stupid games you will win stupid prizes.
These are some of the major red flags that you should never ignore no matter how fine or loaded a brother may be:
They have a short temperSadly, we keep hearing of situations where someone was seriously injured or even ended their partner’s life in a fit of rage. In these situations, you will find that the whole incident started as a minor disagreement and later, things just escalated.
Someone who is easily triggered needs to get some therapy and they need to focus on themselves first before getting into any relationship.
If your love interest or the person you are dating has a short fuse especially when they have some booze in their system, you need to run as soon as possible.
They are not over their exBeing with someone who is still emotionally attached to their ex is a dangerous game. You might think that things are going great and that your new relationship is perfect only to realize that their ex keeps coming up in your conversations.
Watch out if they have recently broken up with their ex. You might just be their backup plan until they rekindle the romance with their former boo.
They are full of liesDeception is never a good sign when you are dating someone. A good relationship is built on trust so when things aren’t moving in the right direction, there is a big problem.
You will constantly find yourself questioning if they are being honest with you and that is not what a healthy relationship sounds like.
The moment you find out that they are a liar you need to reevaluate if that is the kind of person you want to be with.
They are obsessed with youObsession is something that has been romanticized so much in movies. But when it comes to real life, someone who is crazy about you in an unhealthy way is a dangerous person.
It’s cute when someone wants to do something sweet for you like checking up on you during the day but when that crosses over to a more controlling and forceful show of love, like demanding to know every single detail of your life, it is not okay.
You need to detect this unhealthy attachment early and run for your life.
They are argumentativeSomeone who is argumentative will make everyday dreadful. They believe that they always need to be right and they are so focused in having their way regardless of how it makes you feel.
I’m sure you don’t want to deal with someone who is constantly triggering your stress. For peace of mind, be with someone who brings peace into your life instead of constant fights and arguments.
