Much simpler, two unaware people that lack understanding and are emotionally immature. Get out of your own way & know you are the shoe that drops & screws things up.
Take a hard painful honest look at yourself & determine your going to grow up & so why won't you? Its fear & cowards take it out on others. A world of fearful cowards that refuse to look at themselves. So you point at others! Stop being a professional victim. Get in your own face & leard what you've been missing that will complete you. Two F-ed people won't heal together. Each person is to grow up and get emotionally matured, then when stable the two will be able to communicate & decide if you want to be part of each other's life's or not.
Remember you are your worst problem! Get to work or stay a coward! Have a nice day 😊

About #5: if you're looking into debt for clues, you can make this point more general, such as: "Consumer/Spending habits". This includes instant gratification, as you say, but also reflects addictions, compensating and coping behaviors, etc. The reason this goes way beyond debt is because you're talking about early signs. You can tell that debt will come if the person has unsustainable consuming habits, even if while dating they have no debt.

You did it again; knocked it out of the park! What's funny is that often times people think they are the exception and the other person won't do that to them - wrong! The inevitable always happens. Thanks Eric for the great advice of red flags to never ignore.

My ex of 6 years had the first 3 red flags. She has a distant relationship to her dad ("daddy issues"), she said she always needed her space (avoidant attachment style) and rarely could say sorry. Needless to say, our relationship was a disaster. She cheated, never was wrong with anything, and our relationship had very little intimacy. Its hard to see these things from the beginning, but the relationship to her/his family should be easy to spot from early on. See how often he or she says I am sorry.

Because he’s 5’6 that was so outta pocket I laughed😭.

Red flag #3 almost knocked me over. Apologies don’t come easy to my spouse. It is very rare. If he tries, it sounds like this “ I’m sorry if you THINK...”. or I’m sorry but You....”. It’s confusing because I can’t tell if he is sorry but can’t admit or he isn’t sorry and just wants to shut me up. Either way, the apology doesn’t come across as sincere. Also, this is a GREAT list of 🚩!

Haven't dated in 25 years. I gave up when the so called Christian men I date were not so Christ like.

[seeinginthedark]

I question no.s 1 & 2; no 1 isn't necessarily about the answer given at all- this needs to be explored not assumed. Some people have had abusive upbringings and the healthy option is to cut the family of origin out. No.2 private can mean different things, maybe they have an avoidant attachment style, the question is how self aware are they? Are they working on themselves or not?

[victoriarobinson]

A man will treat his wife the way he treats his mother. Is number 4

[clbvisuals]

Not 5'6" 💀💀😂😂😂😂😂🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[christoprighteous]

Wow, spot on. God saved me from a bad relationship.

[brihenderson]

Run, Forrest,
Thank for this Pastor E! You the bomb 👊🏼

[mailenereyes]

Wow, that's a good points bro, that's very true, being a Christian we should be set a good example not just to the people outside, but most importantly to the people around us, like to our spouse or to our respective families, God bles u bro as always

[kshone]

Great words of wisdom! Every red flag you mentioned is right on. Love these videos!

New car because you're 5'6", lucky I'm 5'4". and car-less

I know I'm not ready to date again. But when is it the right time to date again after a 11 1/2 year marriage. I know that I have issues that I no longer want to keep "private" any more. Working on paying off my debt. When I first separated I was thinking I didn't want to get married again.
