'They're a 10 but...': 40+ Memes That Expose the Quirky Qualities We Hide from New Partners

Since you were wondering, "They're a 10 but…" basically means that the person you are getting to know can check all of your boxes, but they carry a certain quality or trait that is sort of a red flag or even a dealbreaker. Much of this concept of "They're a 10 but…" comes from today's dating world. It is nearly impossible to avoid all of the "red flags" that the internet has come up with. We are always getting exposed to these signs that are supposed to reveal the issues in our current partners, past partners, and potential new relationships.

At the same time, these warning signs are a great lesson to help people avoid mistakes, rather than a friend having to say, I told you so. If there were data behind this, we're sure it would say that there are much fewer broken hearts with the internet exposing trolls every which way!
