The talking stage is crucial in determining whether you're compatible with someone. Recognizing red flags early on can save you from future heartbreak.
If someone frequently cancels plans or seems uninterested in making an effort to meet, it's a sign they may not value your time.
If they’re reluctant to share basic details about themselves or avoid answering personal questions, it could indicate a lack of openness or dishonesty.
If they disregard your boundaries, whether emotional, physical, or personal, it’s a red flag that they may not respect you in the long run.
If they're always available when it's convenient for them but seem distant at other times, it could suggest they're not genuinely invested in you.
Pay attention to how they treat people around them—friends, family, waiters. If they’re rude or dismissive, it might eventually be directed at you.
Excessive jealousy or possessiveness in the talking stage can indicate controlling tendencies. Healthy relationships require trust and personal space.
If they constantly complain about their life but make no effort to improve it, this could signify a negative mindset or lack of personal responsibility.
If they rarely ask about you or show interest in your life, it could signal selfishness or a lack of genuine care.
Whether it’s physical intimacy or making quick decisions about the future, any form of pressure should be a red flag to walk away from.
