1. They never take accountability
Everything is someone elseās fault exes, friends, coworkers, even you. Apologies are rare or fake.
2. Communication only happens on their terms
They disappear when things get serious, but show up loud when they want attention.
3. They make you feel confused instead of secure
Hot today, cold tomorrow. If youāre always guessing where you stand, thatās not love thatās stress.
4. They disrespect your boundaries
You say no, they push. You express discomfort, they minimize it. Thatās not care; thatās control.
5. Theyāre overly secretive for no clear reason
Locked phones, vague answers, defensive reactions. Privacy is normal mystery is not.
6. They constantly play the victim
Theyāre always misunderstood, attacked, or unlucky. Growth requires self-awareness, not pity parties.
7. They isolate you from others
They slowly turn you against friends or family, calling it āloveā or āprotection.ā Itās neither.
8. Your intuition keeps warning you
If your gut feels uneasy even when things look āfine,ā listen. Your body notices what your heart ignores.
Final reminder:
Red flags donāt turn green with patience. Pay attention early it saves time, energy, and peace.
