What is a red flag for you?

A couple of mine are if the person shows up drinking Red Bull, or if they refer to themselves in the third person.

@EmilyEdith I know! I mean, aren鈥檛 they the least bit curious...about anything?

@NewKidInTown self-absorbed.馃槕

@EmilyEdith Do you think that is it completely, or could it be some people are just a tad obtuse?
EmilyEdith56-60, F
@NewKidInTown You are right, some people are shy, others just not good at conversation. The red flags are for people who like to control the convo or topics.
Should we excuse the obtuse as well?

@EmilyEdith I have a friend (well not so much anymore) who would tend to dominate the conversation, groups were worse, but one on one as well. Very rarely did he ask how I was doing or what was going on in my life, and if he did, it quickly circled back to him. In a way I felt bad for him, and I sensed he was stressed or dealing with anxiety. It was not long after that he found a reason to distance himself from our group of friends. Sad.

@NewKidInTown You were a very patient friend.馃尀
I hope that guy is doing okay.

@EmilyEdith I Hope so too. Have reached out to him several times to no avail.
