Let’s be honest, I think 90% of people are truly undateable. We just let our sex drive distract us from that.
Maybe we’re all just Angry people, with financial problems, making evil babies..
Sounds like something a red flag would say. What are you doing this Saturday night?
Red flag and wallowing in misery. If you’ve got parental issues then you’re just my type.
I met the new intern who’s going to deal with my meds prescriptions for the next 6 months, omg she’s so cute it hurts. So here I am, explaining to her everything that is wrong with and why I’m a train wreck… It hurts
I really dislike the current use of red flag. Seems it’s used for any personality trait one doesn’t like instead of being an actual red flag. I think people who freely use the term red flag are judgmental and thats a big…red flag…
What do you think red flag means other than incompatability? It’s not like the usage has changed, it’s always been meant to signify “I don’t like this about you”.
I don’t disagree with you about judgemental people overusing it, though. But that’s just judgemental behavior in general, I think you might just not like judgy people - which is fair.
I use to think a red flag was a telling sign that someone isn’t who they say they are, borderline psycho or have other underlying issues such as being abusive or manipulative.
That makes no sense though, so a green flag is ‘thing I like about you’ and a red flag is ‘you are a lying manipulative and abusive sociopath’??
I think this may just be your interpretation, I’m 30 and I’ve literally never heard it used to mean this.
What?
“Red Flag” is a term assigned to events that are foreboding of terrible consequences, such as a man who talks a lot about his ex and collects firearms or a woman who lacks empathy towards others and drinks cinnamon whiskey.
The meme therefor translates as:
“When you find a nice good person who is dateable but you yourself have become the problematic person in the potential relationship.”
That’s my secret cap, I’m always red flags.
