What was a red flag that made you stop talking to a person immediately? [I Am Curious]

Her beard

Just a gut feeling, instinct

Vocal fry and a habit of saying 'like' too often.

Emotional manipulation.

Extreme invasiveness/ trying to force their way into the private details of my life if we aren’t romantically involved- very suspicious

Men pretending to be women can't disguise their masculine way of thinking.

When they said that they wished that people would stop talking about Jimmy Saville as he’s not here to defend himself.

When they start believing everything is about them

When they pulled a knife.

She was too out there

they were on meth

Batshit crazy

Double crossing

Someone showing a hot temper immediately. That doesn’t get better. 🙁

He got legitimately angry when he asked me if I wanted him to read me a story aloud and I said no.

What a weird psycho.

They wouldn't stop going on about how pale my skin was and it creeped me out. Theyd also send me all this poetic stuff about my eyes and my skin

I used to talk with a "friend" for hours at a time when she was having problems with herself. I would actively listen to every word and detail, allowing me to find the right replies to her questions and statements. But when I would talk about something, even a short, positive statement which contained details, she would interrupt me and tell me to never tell her anything with details. She just didn't want to hear anything like that. I said, okay, and haven't talked with her since.

When i realised she was a bald dwarf with mental health issues and stalking tendencies* true story* 🤣

The person (happened with more than one person) insisted on going on and on about problems they had with people I talked with.

This is usually the cut off point cause this means the crazy is about to start and I don’t have time for that

Barking usually does the trick

He was insensitive and abusive immediately.

Close or simple-minded people.

When they start asking for money.

they have zero sense of humor

No free time to myself.

It would take a novel to list all the things that throw up red flags for me now and I'd have to keep pumping out new volumes.

Professed their love and desperation without ever meeting me. Wanted to take up all my free time and paranoid about what I was doing.

The sudden levitation and red glowing eyes. Had to bail

Freak outs for instant messenger replies exceeding 3 seconds. Gone.

Lying is the major end all for me.

When he wanted to investigate the bathroom before I used it to make sure no male was in there.

When they got angry because I took a little while to reply to their messages. I try not to leave people waiting for ages but I'm not on call 24/7. I need room to live and breathe and anyone who cant understand that needs to not be part of my life.
