How to Spot Relationship Red Flags

Video Transcript

"The Matador and the Bull, how do you spot a red flag in a relationship? This is Dr. Paul, author of Boomer Girl A Boomer Womans Guide to Men and Dating. Nationwide talk show host and I will listen to many many people who call my show, and specifically women, who tell me about the red flags they have seen in their relationships. And it's not all about another woman, it can also mean another event, another hobby, another thing, something happening that doesn't have anything to do with them. Golf widows is a good example, where the guy that's constantly going to the football game, or the baseball game, or whatever it may be, never in the presence of his significant other. And it goes both ways, it goes with women as well. they do things with their girl friends that may not be inclusive of their significant others. Why are you with that person? If you see the red flag, it's time to communicate with that significant other of yours and say look I'm seeing red flags in this relationship or maybe it's a drinking problem, hopefully not a drug problem, something there that is causing dissension in that relationship. Those are the red flags we have to very very carefully look at before we dissolve a relationship, before we accuse someone of something, let's talk about it, let's sit down and have a real go at it, then we know that the other knows what those red flags are that we are seeing. Because often times, they may not see them as red flags, only you are seeing in your perception. So, make sure that you have a mutual perception, he or she perceives it as well. This is Dr. Paul, may your fantasies of today be your realities of tomorrow"
