20 Red Flags in Dating Relationships !!

When starting a new relationship, many women and men tend to overlook some behaviors in their new partner that do not bode well for the future. Then, down the road, comes the exclamation "If I had only known…". It can always be traced back to the unpleasant and also dangerous character traits that begin at the very start of the relationship.

Here are some Red Flags to watch out for in a new partner.


1. They make decisions about where to go with little or no input from you.



2. They belittle your opinion when the two of you are alone and may call you names.



3. They make disparaging remarks about you in front of others and may talk about you as if you were not there.



4. They may be rough during love-making and make you engage in acts you do not like.



5. They do not want to spend time with your friends or family and insists you socialize only with his people.



6. They will not acknowledge your areas of expertise and may put down what you do in the workplace - ignore any of your accomplishments.



7. They may openly flirt with other men or women and then accuse you of being jealous when you object.



8. They get angry and loses their temper over trivialities. Stays angry for a long time and attempts to blame all arguments on you. May hit walls when angry.



9. They tend to drink more than you and suggests forcefully that you should keep up with them.



10. They offer you recreational drugs or offers to share their prescription medication such as pain killers, speed, or sleeping pills. This suggests you are being subtly led down their path of drug addiction.



11. Their best non-family friends tend to override any plans the two of you have arrived at mutually. This is an indicator of a future lifestyle which may not only be contrary to your interest, but may lead to constant disputes.



12. They ask you for money either over the phone or on your first or second date.



13. You notice that their money spending habits are out of control.



14. They will not give you an address or home phone number where you can reach them. Tell them you want the address in order to send them a card after your date.



15. WOMEN: Beware of men that still live at home with their parents.



16. They have a best friend(s) of the opposite sex that tend to call or contact them abnormally frequently - or tend to come over without being invited. Most normal , healthy relationships are between 2 best friends, and are not dominating by outside third parties. Don't expect most people to replace you as their best friend if they already have best friends they are emotionally edicted to.



17. BEWARE - BEWARE - BEWARE of co-dependence.



18. If you marry a person with children, you must emotionally marry their children, whether they live with you are with the ex-spouse.



19. One of the main factors is that they come on very strong in the beginning of your relationship - sweeps you off your feet - and wants an exclusive relationship too quickly. Many people feel flattered at the intensity of their partner's seeming need for an immediate connection and consequently overlook the inappropriateness of it. This should not be confused with "love at first sight" where one or both parties feel an instant connection - without any of the aforementioned behaviors.



20. There are many other factors that could be listed - but if the partner in your life begins displaying the above qualities - realize it will not get better, only worse. They will likely be unwilling to discuss their emotions openly and feel that you are the inferior sex.


If this describes your mate RUN - DO NOT WALK - out of their life.
The next step will likely be physical abuse.
