21 Dating Red Flags That Are Way Too Common

Everyone likes to say that dating is "weird now" but it's not like people haven't had massive problems building and maintaining relationships for all of human existence. Most Shakespeare plays are about this kind of garbage. Romeo and Juliet quite literally ghosted each other. Y'know, by dying.

But at the same time, life is too short to make all these mistakes yourself. So it's better to just learn about other people's experiences with boring, toxic, narcissistic or manipulative partners rather than ignoring all the signs and pushing forward through one train wreck after another. Even actual train wrecks only stop once, but one person can find themselves in one bad relationship after another.

Anyway, here are some pretty common signs that maybe it's time to rethink things. And here are some more glaring red flags that made people dip out of relationships.
