The Red Flag is Up



In a relationship, when one sees the red flag (not literally though), it means that there are danger signs being manifested that are most likely to threaten its stability. Even before being married, the red flag can show itself quite clearly to warn of what possibly lies ahead in a more permanent relationship. A cheating boyfriend will most probably be a cheating husband and women should heed the warning signs.

If your boyfriend has a history of cheating on his past girlfriends, the odds that he will be faithful to you are against you. Unless he miraculously sees you as his one true love, he will continue his pattern of cheating every time he loses interest on his current girlfriend and sees another prospect in the horizon. You would probably need to reconsider before entering a relationship with this kind of man.

If he suddenly appears to be avoiding you for all sorts of reasons from running errands for his mother to attending a business conference every weekend, you can be certain that there is something amiss and that something is most probably someone, specifically another woman. Actions such as these are highly suspect especially if he has previously made it a point to be with you in all his available time. The complete turnaround from undivided attention to complete neglect cannot be ignored.

If he becomes overly critical of your simplest actions and appears irritable when he is with you, chances are he is wishing he is somewhere else and not with you. During the limited time he spends with you, he appears to be emotionally distant. He even purposely avoids any form of intimacy with you.

There are many other signs such as never answering his cell phone around you, checking out other girls even you're together, and asking what you consider cheating. Be attentive to details and spot the red flag. It might just save you from a life of misery and betrayal.
