Gun enthusiast. I have no problem with responsible gun owners, but if you openly carry a gun everywhere you go, I'm running.

Excessive involvement in social media.

I don't mean using social media in general, I mean excessive use. Like, when someone's life exists only on and around social media and they spend an unhealthy amount on them and spend their time on what their social media image looks like.

There was this guy who had an entire, HUGE room in his house that was filled to the brim with rows of shelves and cupboards. And upon these shelves there were apparently what seemed like thousands of anime girl statues, glass jars filled with precisely different shades of colorful Lego bricks, and some big bags just lying around stuffed with stuff-I-don’t-know-and-doesn’t-want-to-know-either. The Lego bricks were kinda neat though, but the red flag was that he literally hoarded cats, hamsters and bunnies. These poor animals were just running around, wrecking havoc and leaving poo everywhere and not being cared properly, and he absolutely ignored like it was nothing. It was really damn absurd. The hygiene levels in that house was horrible, he was cruel to his pets, but he managed to keep that room with shelves always in top condition. I heard he later got reported by a neighbor because of animal abuse and hoarding pets he probably had no intention of caring for. (No offense to the people collecting stuff out there, that’s nice. Hoarding pets is not.)

uhh,, killing people?/j
In all reality, I kinda think that non-stop arguing with people online is a no-go.

Sports Betting. The occasional bet is fine or even a low-key weekly pool, but when they start betting if a team is going to walk counterclockwise under a full moon while wearing away jerseys, that's not a hobby, it's an addiction.

For me, a lack of hobbies or interests is a huge red flag. It can be an indicator of someone who has a chameleon personality, meaning the morph into the perfect partner by taking in the personality of their latest source.

I used to have a friend who would collect the underwear of the girls he slept with. We were drinking one night and he told us it was like trophy hunting.

Doll collecting. I'm not talking antiques. I love antiques and we own quite a few porcelain dolls. I'm talking I walked into a guy's house and he had shelves upon shelves of every single doll possible. Porcelain, barbie, baby, cabbage patch, you name it.
It wouldn't have creeped me out so much but they were placed around like trophies and he was super defensive of them when I asked. I gestured to ask if I could pick one up and he said "I'd rather you didn't."
He seemed like a super nice guy, but all I could think about was those crime shows where a guy kills some kid and keeps a toy as a momento.

I just started dating this guy years ago. He came to pick me up for work. This was the first time I had been in his truck. I opened the door and there was an open beer in the cup holder. I should have said,"No thanks." and got a ride with a coworker. We continue dating and I start noticing he has a drinking problem. I overlook it because I thought it was the one. One day, he explains to me what is to happen should we get pulled over. I "admit" the open container belongs to me. I would never drink in a vehicle so I was perplexed as how I would convince an officer I had been drinking all the while breathing a 0.00 into a breathalyzer.
