first or second date "red flags" (Christian, women, children)

[the-writer-guy]

Women or men, describe your first or second date "red flags", things that made you decide that this person was just not right for you!
Also, if the date went well, describe some of the things that made you say "yes" to the next date!

Excessive sweating, and/or obvious signs of anxiety.

Smoke, drinks too much and has tattoos are red flags for me.

It was a red flag when my mother actually liked a guy well enough to want to introduce him to me..
It was another red flag when she arranged for us to meet because he was such a nice Christian.
It was an even bigger red flag when he leaped on me like white on rice as soon as my mother was out of the room.


I declined all of her further attempts at matchmaking.

(I have no children.)

First date:

He said, "...So now you know, I have three children. Does that put you off?"

I said, "Three children 18, 20 and 24 don't put me off. Yours are 4, 6 and 10."

Second date: What second date?

It was best for both of us.
