Most people who have worked in the restaurant industry know that it can be an incredibly humbling experience. Rude and careless customers are a dime a dozen.
So, if your date treats restaurant staff– or any service worker– rudely, you will be able to see a bit more of their true colors.
Plus, you can begin to question who else they treat badly in their life and if that could ever become you.
Lacking Boundaries
“Wanting one hundred percent of your attention and time,” commented @ScarlettWilson13.
While this might seem endearing or even like a sweet “honeymoon phase” obsession, it can actually lead to highly toxic relationships.
These people might expect you to isolate yourself from friends, family, and possibly even activities that you personally loved doing.
But, you should never be forced to revolve your life around someone and give up healthy outside interactions.
“Love Bombing”
“When you first start dating, and they say ‘I love you’ within the first week, that’s a red flag,” said @YourAveragePeep1109.
I could not have said it better myself. This behavior, known as “love bombing,” is often used to essentially butter someone up with attention or affection.
