Yeah I mean in perfect world you would find the right person the first time. However, I don't think it's bad per se to have had bad experiences in love, cause sometimes that hardship is the way for some to understand what they want in a person and learn to respect themselves more. Definitely though if you had multiple relationships with "crazy bitches", then you gotta take a look at yourself.

Whenever these threads pop up on the Internet it's always blatantly obvious why so many anons are single lmao. You retards have such unreasonably high standards and then you fucks look like an uglier Flammenco.

Men who are clingy and don't know when to stop fucking texting me and assume that not answering a text means you are ignoring them. And women who won't shut up about their sexuality. For both genders, anyone who is mean to waiters/waitresses, kids, or animals.

Edit: My mother once said, "there's nothing more dangerous in this world than an insecure man." Insecurity is a major red flag as well. And I don't mean men who feel bad about their cock size, I mean men who are codependent and clingy because of their insecurities. Ladies beware.

This is some real shit. I don't care if a man likes Marvel, I don't care if a man has a weird fetish. Insecure men are not only dangerous for women, but dangerous for everyone else around them. The Ethan Ralph niggas who take others down with them whether through power struggle, physical violence, etc. They are never there for you, they only care about themselves. Those niggas where everything is a competition, everything is a pissing contest. Avoid!

If a chick mentions her ex anytime within the first few dates, that's a major deal breaker and I'm out immediately. Allot of people see relationships as nothing more than disposable shallow vessels for sex and attention and I have no interest in wasting my time with that bullshit.

If you're not their first, you will always be compared to prior partners. That's what being experienced is about and leads to better relationships. That person could also just be traumatized from a prior relationship.

  1. Dependent on others.
  2. No empathy. Usually leads to a person who cannot address their own issues.
  3. Cannot support self. disgusting honestly.
  4. In combination of 2 and 3 , still being politically extreme. Like, if you're going to have politics, you have to be able to be a functioning member of society give me a fuckin' break.
  5. With that said, fuck fascists, and other pro-government idiots.
  6. Dumb as fuck. Usually this flag is present when 2 or more above red flags are present.
I prefer a partner that knows what they're doing, what they want, and knows how to get it.

A small sampling from my time in the hellscape of online dating:

Nothing sketchy about this. Nope.

There are an alarming amount of schizos Bumble wanted me to pair with.

This and other parts of his profile absolutely convinced me I’d rather do a flip than spend one minute on a date with this man. I think I’m most triggered by the word “polyish”.

  1. I have a strong pass on any women younger then 50, who has kids from a prior marriage; basically women with kids still at home. My reasoning is she probably chased her husband or kid's father away. So I should take then hint and stay away too. Histrionics have crazy abandonment issues. "Crazy" being the operative word. They'll chase away their husbands, constantly accusing them of not working hand enough to help with the kids when the husband is around and stating very definitively that they hate being in the relationship with the husband. Most men take this as the histrionic being honest and leave; "why would you want to torture a women with your presence in their life", thinks the simp. BPD is different. BPD hates domestic relationships. Being loved, living in a stable home, living comfortably, not wanting for any necessities is BPD's hell. They hate it. It drives them to act out with vicious and violent behaviour. BPD will act all girly and sexy, sort-of like a cheer leader, but it's an act to lure men into their wake so they can get pregnant by the men and then act out forcing the men to move on for the man's own safety. So, if a women has children already, she's done something to become a single mother. Stay away too much baggage and a nasty surprise.
  2. Libtarded women are also no fun. You'll end up getting divorced and having a bunch of fights if you don't have same religion, even lack of religion counts. Personality is more than what people want to believe it is, it's not just about your mood, it also about how you perceive things. Imagine coming home to your wife and telling her. "I totaled the car." ... "It was really bad. It even caught on fire." Secretly this is a sarcastic joke, but your wife does not know this. Instead of holding out to hear the end of the story, your wife flies into a massive rage; it's the argument to end all arguments and the evening devolves into a screaming match. All you were trying to do was tell you wife you bought a new car, but now the evening is ruined due to a miss match of personality. You will be made less because this experience will teach you to be walking on eggshells when ever delivering news to your wife, also you can't act out your sense of humor, which is important for stress relief. Also the interaction has damaged your wife's trust in you, even if later, she finds out it was not true, she still will have the bad sentiment from that night. Maybe this will fade in time, but people are people and are you really going to avoid another mis-match like that night in enough time, it will be thing after thing until you are naturally are driven apart. With you and your wife it might not be about buying a car. It might not be about anything to do with news. It might be how you pack a dishwasher or something else trivial. The take-home is that perceptions matter and perceptions come from personality. You might be thinking, "what does personality and perceptions have to with politics and libtards?" I'm glad you asked. Political party in the US is inherited at a rate of 70%, meaning there is a 7 in 10 chance that you will vote the same way your parents did and that you'll be vulnerable to the same type of propaganda that worked on your parents to get them to vote for a certain candidate. It's one of the strongest psycho-metrics known. Whether it's how your parents bring-up their biological children, or if it's how genes and personality have compounded over time, it really doesn't matter that politics is a fundamental axis of disagreement; a statement supported by a linty of history and biology won't be changed in your relationship. If you think, "well, we just will never talk about politics or the thinks we disagree on -- the lover conquers all shit." If you and your wife don't have common perceptions then it will be impossible for you to make plans about the future because you won't be able to agree on a strategy.
  3. Family is the smallest unit of cooperation. Thought time, empires come and go, war-loads popup and the territory from the parents generation is passed to children. For these and other reason it is best to not go further than 6-th cousins, failing that I'd look for very similar personality. If the have sex on the first date they are probably BPD, so use a condom and break the cycle of inter-generation BPD; it is contagious.
I say wife and assume that the reader is a man, but it could be reversed.

My Father said something to me that resonated. He said my Mother just attracted crazy people to her, like she had some crazy people aura or something. And from my experiences, I believe I have inherited that trait. So for my own protection, I've become a shut in.
