There are some signs you shouldn’t take for granted before entering a relationship with someone; these signs show things you should expect when you enter that relationship.
A lot of people take pre-relationship red flags for granted and only get to regret it later on.
1. AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR
If a person is already showing aggressive behaviour or traits of violence, you should be careful of such a relationship and avoid it for your own safety.
2. INFIDELITY
When a man/woman has interest in you and also has interest in other people at the same time, you should be careful with such a person. A relationship with such a partner would be filled with cheating and unfaithfulness.
3. LIES AND DECEIT
A man or woman feeding you with lies before the relationship starts proper is definitely a man or woman who would be untrustworthy to have a relationship with. Be careful with such a trait; when it shows fully in the relationship, you would feel hurt a lot of the times.
4. NONCHALANCE
A lot of men and women are taken for granted by their partners, in not only relationships but even marriages. You have to be careful about the issue of nonchalance; only enter a relationship with someone who’s willing to make you a priority in their lives.
5. SEX CONSCIOUS
A sex conscious person could be the one that’s only interested in sex; someone like this would only use you for sex and leave when they feel they have had enough.
6. IMMATURITY
A successful relationship needs a high level of maturity, and it would be almost impossible to have a good relationship with someone who is immature or acts like a child.
7. DOMINATING TENDENCIES
A dominating partner is a controlling partner; one who would bend you to do only his/her will. Your opinion in such a relationship would be subdued and your voice wouldn’t count — only that of your partner.
8. ULTERIOR MOTIVE
An example of ulterior motive could be someone who is after you because you are rich; avoid people like these and if a person shows this tendency before having the relationship with you, it just shows they are interested in your wealth and not you; such a relationship is unhealthy and one you would regret it on the long run.
9. SELFISHNESS
A selfish or self-centred partner is one that thinks only of himself/herself; such a partner would never think of you first but themselves. Self-centredness is an unfair trait to endure in a relationship.
10. ANNOYING HABITS
Some habits are annoying and you might not be able to condone them. Habits like drug abuse and alcohol abuse could be something you might not condone. If you hate dirtiness and cigarette smoking, you should watch out for it rather than thinking you could change your partner.
A lot of people have entered terrible relationships and marriages because they didn’t watch out for the red flags that they can’t live with. Red flags show you what to expect proper.
