If your date offers to pay for their side (male or female) as it is a position where you show a sense of responsibility and also help them if they don’t have the money (which is alright everyone isn’t elon)

[@althealee9375]

YES YES YES to the “my wife is my best friend” thing. My parents taught me that that’s how a marriage should be and I did indeed marry my best friend and I love him so much

[@brutalnapkin1055]

I had a time just like story 16. I remember during my first date with her the bill came and we spent around 30 minutes trying to pay the bill. Both of us wanted to pay for it and neither of us were backing down. I finally paid and she said she would cover the next date. I asked her why and she told me that relationships were two ways and she wanted to put in as much as I did. That really touched me

[@AlwaysSomeone]

It's a sweet story, but my takeaway was "the end of the date was us arguing over something for 30 minutes. She's so cool!"

My wife said I gave off so many green flags she planned our honeymoon on our first date.

[@civilwildman]

That sounds more like a red flag right there. =/

This is pretty low bar stuff but as someone who was sexually abused by a classmate as a kid, it meant a lot to me. My husband and I started off as FWBs. On our first date, we smoked a few bowls, ate pizza, and after a while, I started to get frisky. Most guys in my experience didn't hesitate to accept my advances, but he stopped and asked if I'm in any state to consent since we got stoned earlier. I reassured him that I was wanting to hook up back when I was sober and that I was still lucid enough to give consent due to my high tolerance. It really meant a lot to me that he wanted to make sure that I was ok before going any further. A few months after that, I contracted a staph infection and had to be hospitalized for 5 days. He came to visit me even tho the hospital was way out of the way from his place. When I recovered at my parents for a few days after that, he took me out for dinner, then spent time getting to know my parents and younger siblings when taking me back to their place. That was 8 years ago. In August, we'll hit 4 years of marriage. He's my best friend, my rock, and my home.

My husband said that my love for a certain video game series was a huge green flag, his reason for liking me.

[@jaredkennedy6576]

I met my girlfriend online, and after a month of lots of chatting/texting, a few several hours long phone calls, and a few zoom meetings, she came up the 13 hours to visit with me. Our "first date" was essentially all weekend, and it was all green flags. It's kinda wild, like if I had custom ordered my ideal partner.

[@Unknown-wb1bf]

Could you give us maidenless people examples of these green flags?

[@jaredkennedy6576]

@@Unknown-wb1bf Nearly identical interests, life goals, political and religious inclinations, and so on. For the record, I'm 43 and she's 41, so not the first time around for either of us. The absolute biggest thing is to know what you want, and who you are. People grow up being told who they are, but very rarely take the time to figure out who they actually are. This is something done in solitude and self reflection.

It's a bit sad, that some of these "green flags" used to be a standard/par for the course from a girl/women many years back - but are now a feat in dating.

When she's likes snakes, spider's and creepy crawlers. Oh and edge.

[@civilwildman]

For me as a straight cisgender male: 1) She shows up (at a relatively decent time if not on time). 2) She doesn't spend the date on her phone. 3) She doesn't bring up her ex(es). 4) She doesn't insist on an expensive date (ex: fancy dinner), and if she does want to do something costly, she doesn't insist on anything expensive and doesn't expect her date to pay exclusively (ie: she chips in on it, if possible). 5) She is kind, respectful and responsible.

I dont know why but i expected midnight the stars and you play in the background.

[@DanDaMan92790]

To me having similar beliefs to avoid conflict is a red flag.

[@NeroDefogger]

I mean... I guess you mean it as in, they say they do but that they might be lying but, that's not the point, the point is to actually have similar beliefs, because what I think you imply would be just lying, and yeah I guess most people don't want a partner that lies

[@DanDaMan92790]

@@NeroDefogger I mean that everyone is so sensitive nowadays that no one can have a differing opinion without getting "cancelled".

[@NeroDefogger]

@@DanDaMan92790 emmm, dude, they aren't saying you can't have a different opinion, they are saying that the thing at the table is an infinite relationship of you two forever having to talk and talk and share everything and do everything together and if you have vastly different opinions you are just going to torture each other for the rest of your lives, you are doing a favor to both by trying to search a better suited partner, you both can have a partner that agrees with you without having to be you two together, I just don't know why you even think different, is so obvious, is just not torturing each other

[@onionbubs386]

People don't choose partners with similar interests to avoid conflict. They do so because that gives them something to bond over. People do the same thing with friends.

[@PixelaGames2000]

I’m not a guy but here are my green flags 1 sharing the same religion/morals (this is more of a requirement but cmon it’s important for your partner to be on the same playing field as you) 2 nerdy/geeky (I’m a nerd and I’d like a guy who shares my interests I’m into a lot of different stuff that’s considered nerdy so if you’re into some of these things then you have my interests) 3 the gentle type (I prefer a guy who’s the gentle type someone who’s kind considerate but also strong and reliable someone who I can trust someone who’s always got my back) 4 not interested in sex or having kids (I’m not interested in sex or having kids so if you’re not interested in that stuff either then yay win win) 5 someone who isn’t afraid to show me there soft side or talk to me about there struggles (I may have trouble fully understanding what you’re going through but I’ll try my best to be kind caring and supportive I’m trusting you with my struggles so consider trusting me with yours)

[@NeroDefogger]

I check 2 to 5 (well kinda, because I don't know what kind of geeky stuff you exactly like) but I can't know point 1 because you didn't specify it for obvious reasons of course, I know you didn't put in as in trying to find people that matched but I just, thought like sharing as I check most of them
