It’s important to keep an open mind when you start dating someone. Sure, you might find it odd that they prefer walking only on your left or getting out of bed after the 12th alarm, but these things aren’t exactly deal breakers.
Real dating warning signals tend to be more complex than habits you could pass off as behavioral quirks. So, to get a better understanding of where people draw the line, Redditor YummyYmir asked all the females on the platform what they believe to be immediate red flags in women that men should look out for. From not having girlfriends to emotional blackmail, we thought you’d also be interested in hearing the answers, so we put together the most popular ones into a list.

Women who are aggressive and slap or hit others then say “you can’t hit a woman.”

#4
Emotional blackmail. Threatening to harm self each time anything doesn’t go her way. Threatening to tell the whole world something that’s private between the two of you whenever anything goes wrong.

Princess mentality.
Trust me dealing with that is not worth it.
“I get whatever I want”
Ew
#6
For men and for women, rigid gender roles. Someone who sees you more as a gender than as a person brings a whole host of problems with that mindset.

Women who go from relationship to relationship without time to be single are usually trouble. Same goes for women who change their identity with each relationship. It doesn’t mean they’re bad people, but they clearly have issues to work through, if their self-esteem is validated through male attention.

Expecting you to read their mind!
I’m bi and have dated a few women seriously.
I unfortunately seemed to have a type- charismatic and very social women who were also passive aggressive. They all expected me to just know when and why they were mad at me, as they would become cool and distant with me, they’d sometimes stop returning calls for periods of time, and their facial expression would appear angry. BUT, when I asked what was wrong,, repeatedly, they would only say ” nothings wrong”. They’d make me beg and plead to find out what was wrong. It was infuriating.
The last womani seriously dated decided she was just going to not take my calla suddenly for a number of days. I just got fed up and never called her again/ ended things that way. She tried to call me eventually but I’d just screen her calls and let them go to voice-mail. I was so done with the games
All women are NOT like this. But I definitely had to rethink what sort of ladies I was dating.

A woman who wants to move in right away. Who discourages you from seeing your friends and who slowly stops you from doing what you want.
It’s a MF trap.
Watched it happen to a friend of mine. It was heartbreaking

If she always wants to be around you and gets irrationally angry with you when you want to leave for a bit..
Red flag..

#13
When they put other women down and hang out with men all the time, to be like “one of the boys”. There’s som deep misogyny going on and most of the time that girl is VERY insecure. Trust me, I was that girl.

Expecting the man to “entertain” her on a date and arrange all logistics and events. Note: it is not a bad thing if a guy wants to surprise his date with something fun, or do something thoughtful, or plan something special. The problem is when the woman does constantly expects her boyfriend to arrange everything, like he’s a concierge at a hotel, especially if she does not reciprocate. Worst is when the woman provides no input about what she’d like to do and then sulks when the man does not use ESP to divine her wishes.

Not having any girlfriends because “I don’t get along with women.”

#16
When they insist that a lack of personal space equals to you not paying them enough attention. Like you can like/love someone without having to spend all your hours glued to them, or hanging on to everythingthey say.

#17
When she constantly belittle every other woman around her just to show off how “special” and “different” she is. Once in a while is ok I guess, but if she’s always like that then there’s a problem.

#18
Passive-aggressiveness to get her way. Like the silent treatment, guilt trips, etc. Until you’re isolated or find yourself doing only things with/for her. It’s like… emotional abuse and happens to men all the time but no one seems to care.
#19
love bombing right after meeting for the first time

#20
Calls herself an empath, and says she’s more in touch with emotions than other people.
