Don't ignore these 5 red flags when dating, says psychologist: They're saying 'you're not a priority'
Look out for inconsistent behavior and blaming past partners for everything that went wrong in the relationship, says psychologist Sabrina Romanoff.
TL;DR
- Inconsistent attention and communication can indicate you are not a priority.
- Consistently blaming ex-partners for relationship failures suggests a lack of self-reflection and accountability.
- Future faking, or making elaborate future plans early on, can create a false sense of intimacy.
- Disrespectful behavior rationalized as 'just being honest' is a major red flag.
- Feeling like you must constantly perform or audition for your date's attention is a sign of an unhealthy dynamic.
