Relationship Red Flags
Sometimes, we paint red flags white. We chose to ignore warning signs because we believe we can "make it work" or because we think "people can change."
Next time you pick up that paint brush, recognize that there are some red flags that can’t be ignored.
•Your significant other is verbally or physically abusive
•He or she makes you feel like you’re begging for affection
•He or she makes you pay for affection
•You catch him or her red-handed in the act
•You do not share the same fundamental values as your significant other
There are, of course, other red flags to watch for, but, this list is a good starting point to evaluate whether it’s time to pay heed to that warning.

good advice. (the rat-tail can surely be a red flag)
