Psychologists think we tend to ignore red flags because we simply don’t want to be right. Falling in love can really mess up our minds, and turning a blind eye to behavior that’s obviously not right is one way. After all, finding someone you truly like is like winning the lottery these days, but no matter how much we’d want to fall in love, some glaring signs indicate we may be better off without them.

Examples of Red Flags (Funny But True)

When X user Lauren Chanel (formerly of Twitter) asked, “What’s a simple red flag that has never failed you? Something small like a person quoting 48 Laws of Power”—it struck a chord with many people. 

The illuminating replies started pouring in, and they definitely shed light on what to be cautious about in our love interests. You might find some of the biggest red flags in a guy funny at first glance, but they actually reveal what kind of a person they are. From people who say they hate animals to “littering,” some things may look basic or funny at first, but when you really think about it…

Whether you find the biggest red flags in a girl funny or not, the following compilation may save you from taking the wrong step. By the way, this isn't just a collection of funny red flags for girls; it includes funny red flags for guys, too!

Have you ever been in love? Your best friend, your family friend, your parent? If so, you’d know very well how love changes people. Thankfully, the transformation is usually for the better, but sometimes, we fall head over heels so deeply that we lose the ability to detect doubts and other negative reactions we have with our love interests.

Elite Daily interviewed some experts. Here’s what they had to say about blind love and its impact on the people in the relationship.

In fact, very few of us are immune to this phenomenon, says nationally recognized psychotherapist Dr. LeslieBeth Wish, who considers blind love to be something that doesn’t have to do with appearances. It usually hits during the honeymoon phase, when we still haven’t had enough time to experience the negative side of our loved ones.

According to relationship expert Susan Winter, who also spoke to Elite Daily, the honeymoon phase brings all the best parts of our significant others to the spotlight. “We haven’t experienced the many times they’ll disappoint, let us down, and hurt us. These are the things that occur later in a relationship. Without knowing the totality of our partner, we are forced to see them in a state of love blindness.”

No Ian. If it is in your own house that YOU will have to take care of later, is ok. If it is in a public setting, streat, work, mall or even in your home if you expect that SOMEONE ELSE will do it for you, then it's NOT OK. If there's no trash can you pick it up and hild until you find a frigging trash can you lazy b4stard

Litterers demonstrate they couldn't care less about anyone else. It's a matching set with being violent.

We have to pick up a garbage bag's worth of trash every month from the frontage of our yard. Most of it is liquor nip bottles, but there are also fast food bags filled with detritus, bottles containing chewing tobacco spit, and vaping products. How do you see a forested yard with a beautiful brook running through it and decide it's ok to trash it?

Same here! It only slowed down after I put up No Littering and Security Cameras In Use signs... I invested in a trash-grabber after finding not one, not two, but FIVE used condoms in the gutter beside my house (all on separate occasions). If it's possible to die of rage, that nearly did me in.

Putting the wrong kind of rubbish into the wrong communal bin as well. The worst is dog mess. Bagging it up and throwing the bag into a hedge is even worse than leaving it there. Wild animals will want to eat them.

Question: does me pouring out my drink (tea, coffee or water is all I drink) in the grass count as littering? I don't like throwing away liquid in trash cans.

It seems to me this is about lack of respect for others. They think the world is theirs, and other people and animals don't matter. They trash the environment along with friends and relationships.

This is kind of irrational. Littering is bad. Being harmful and violent is bad. But what is the logical connection that litterbugs are inherently dangerous? Lazy assholes, sure, but commonly violent?

Littering can also be because of serious health issues. Many with serious mental ilnesses struggle with this, for example. The same goes for some people with severe chronic pain, etcetera.

When I was a kid I yelled at another kid for throwing their trash on the ground at a state park. They picked it up then threw it on the ground again when they thought I wasn't looking. Now, I was for sure the more aggressive one in this whole situation because then I started telling his parents what horrible parents they were and how ashamed they should be of their horrible son while my dad drug me off of the mountain top kicking and screaming about what a horrible nasty family they were. I was 8 and I tried to convince my dad to call the cops to have them all arrested for bad behavior.

Why would depression cause littering? When I was very bad I couldn't get out of bed but when I was well enough to go for walks and be out again I didn't find I'd sprouted a litter gene overnight or lost my conscience. No inability to take my rubbish to a bin or home with me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

HelenKennedy tweets about people who are rude to waiters as red flag in relationship

HelenKennedy Report

After the honeymoon phase ends, many lovebirds start to see and experience the not-so-pretty side of their relationship. This is why recognizing your initial doubts at the beginning of a relationship is crucial. Cherlyn Chong, a dating and breakup recovery coach, suggests seeking a person who can meet one’s needs “regardless of surface or social standing.”

“They need to not completely judge people right off the bat, but they should also prioritize those compatibility traits.” Thus, often, that very first hint of a negative reaction you have may be the most telling one. Basically, don’t ignore the red flags!
