I have given you the tip to "Observe" but if you happen to be in a relationship already or you choose to finally dive in, you can watch some of these obvious red flags.
In courtship, of course most of us would do our best to present our finest character. None of us are perfect but during this season, we prefer to hide all of our imperfections to be desirable. The true colour of someone usually shows up in marriage, fortunately we are granted a trial first before plunging in to a lifetime commitment. After all the relationships I had, I summarized these three common red flags:
1. Uncontrollable emotions
Undeniably some peaks of our emotions are uncontrollable. Maybe you have won one million dollar in a TV contest or you have glided swiftly in a roller coaster, all these are normal for a human but whenever emotions affect other essential parts of life drastically, we may want to take a look. Emotions can manipulate.
2. You are my world
This can romantic to some but having someone who sticks his/her nose to you on every agenda is not as healthy as we may think. We all have different aspects in life; we have career, hobbies, relationship, etc. and a person who does not understand boundaries can interfere and mess up some important parts of your life. You should not bring your lover and display your affection for each other at your workplace. If you are currently pursuing your academic dreams, do not allow your partner to choose between him/her and your dreams. Family time would mean spending priceless and undivided moments with family members and relatives. There is a perfect time and a perfect place for everything.
3. I love you until further notice
I will upload an entire chapter for this.
