The early and fresh days of a relationship spend in utter joy and you almost miss out on the subtle and less obvious red flags that he had been showing and trying to make you fall for him a little more. In today's online dating era, it is hard to differentiate between the fake and genuine story of a guy without full concentration. Dating should be transparent and open. When two persons meet they need to spot the less obvious red flags about each other and completely should be okay with it either or both are asked to verify the facts. A thread on Reddit of a man asking the question "What are some less obvious red flags about men you would want to caution women against?" became immediately popular on social media and we have brought on some interesting answers to let our women aware of it.
"Don't trust a man who can joke about others but can't take it."
Robin- KC with 9 awards came up with this red flag, later he added an edit saying, "I know that this can apply to women. The thing is, I shouldn't need a disclaimer just to gain permission to critique men and some of you shouldn't need to drag women down just to acknowledge a personality flaw."
"When someone is declaring multiple times that they are not a certain way without prompt, they are actually that way.
This one hit hard so many. People said that they completely agree with this, and even women said that, yes it applies to women too. Any guy if he tries to remind you of a certain flaw says he hasn't, just don't believe him. It shows how immature he is and that he can not accept a flaw.
"Any aversion to taking responsibility."
They further said, "The older I get the more I find that the men I respect most aren't the ones with great achievements to their names, but rather the ones who aren't afraid to own their shit."
"You will be able to tell if a guy is nice by how he behaves."
If a guy tells you he's nice, ignore that. That's meaningless. How he behaves to the service staff at places you go on date with him, what he speaks of random women or his own sisters and their careers. You can spot him very hard and easily.
"Blaming their childhood on treating you and others like rubbish."
A big and less obvious red flag about guys. When they treat you badly and slut-shame you and later apologize with crocodile tears blaming their childhood trauma or some incident. Just stop dating him right on, save your time.
