A person you're dating has a lot of 'drama' in their life. Red flag? (girl, cheating)

[beaste]

Read this first. I don't mean a dramatic person. I mean extenuating circumstances.

An example of someone I previously dated.

-Fallout from the ex. The ex was still in the picture a month in us dating because she broke up with him and swiftly went to me. Accused her of cheating, etc. She had an apartment with him which is now half vacant for obvious reasons.

-She gets attacked by a 'best friend' of 10 years. I offer support but I wonder what type of friend this is.

-One of her other friends states that she is going to attempt to suicide. The girl I'm seeing wants to see her friend, I end up being involved.

-Surgery which I feel in the situation her mother tried to coerce me to be more involved even though we only spent a limited time together. I cared about her welfare but at the same time I felt her mother should have been more involved also for such a personal matter.


Would you assume this person probably needed to work on themselves and their own life to become more available? I've mentioned this to her, we were friends first, and I told her all of this was overwhelming. I'm just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and possibly scared off by a potential partner.

If you are overwhelmed now... It will only get worse.

Not if you like drama.
If you do not, steer clear!
